Wow!! What a busy weekend we had here at the Rose residence. Our Saturday started out with Courtney having to go and help out with the Leaders of the 21st Century fundraiser. It was her group of leaders that had to raise money for this years group of upcoming 7th graders that are nominated to be leaders. The money that is raised goes towards the new leaders camp at Hope college in Holland, MI during the summer of 09'. Courtney enjoyed this camp very much and wanted to make sure that she had a part in helping the new leaders have the same opportunity that she had. It was great. The day started out a little on the chilly side, but by noonish the sun was shining beautifully and it was a very comfortable day. We could not have asked for a prettier day. Man were we ever thankful!! Here are a few photos of some of the things that the girls enjoyed doing. One of the photos is of Maddi coloring a mural and signing her name by the dragon that she colored. Then one is of Courtney painting Maddi's face. She had to have a happy spider with gold eyes. Court did a really good job and she actually pleased her little sister. All of the other photos are of them having fun on the inflatables. They had a great time there on Saturday. We then had to come home and fix goodies for the church dinner to welcome our new pastor and his family. Mark was watching the girls that evening so that one of my friends and I could go to Grand Rapids and see Celtic Thunder in concert. The Coast Guard was given free tickets so he insisted that I have an evening out with a friend and I took him up on that!!!! We had a good time!
