Another day

We got Ky sent off to church camp yesterday. She will be gone until Friday. They go to a camp in Lone Star, TX. Last year was her first year to go (because she has gone to Siloam since she was a year old!) and she loved it! I hope she enjoys this year as much! But as soon we got her on the van, Kera and I headed to Magic Springs with friends and met Wendy and her twins there. We had a really good day. It was soooo crowded though. I guess after all the rain last week, everybody was ready to get out of the house!


Well, despite my creativity block, I finally came up with the beginning of a poster for the fall retreat. I took it to a printer and asked the lady to take what I had and "jazz it up" so it would look professionally done. I don't know if she really meant it or if she didn't want to mess with me, but she said she would leave it just as I had done it. I pleaded with her to do some different, add color, change the font, something...,but she said, "If I were to do this, it would look basically like you've already done." I was a tad disappointed because I wanted more color, but she also informed me that colored posters cost $15.00 each!!! So black ink on colored paper looked a whole lot more professional than I thought!!! However, I was relieved that I didn't have to wait for her to re-format (is that word??) a poster, because my girls with me and they are NOT good "waiters". I'll see if I can figure out how to add a picture of it to this blog.
Oh, look! I did it!!!
