Changes at Church

Well our Senior Pastor at church is retiring on October 14th. The elders, board members, of our church decided that our youth pastor now would become our new senior pastor. When I found this out, I was happy, but I immediatly started crying. I have formed a relationship with my youth pastor, his wife, and kids, that not many people at our church have; so I was sad to see them leave the teen department. But them moving up to "big church" means that we get a new youth pastor.

In fact there was a y.p. canidate here this week with his fiance. They are from Cincinnati, OH; his name is Ryan, and her name is Shaina. They are such a sweet couple and said they had a fabulous time while they were here. I don't know if they are the right people, but I believe that God knows if they are. Whether they are or not, we met some great people this week, who I hope we will get to know well.

2 and 0

WEll, we had our second football game last night. We played the Nowata Ironmen...and my Hornets kinda had me worried during the first half again!!...

During the whole first half Nowata led; the score being 0 to 3...but again they must've had an excellent "inspirational" talk that got them going in the 2nd half.

The final score ended at 14 to 3. Vinita!!!...

Oh, but I forgot to mention, that it rained almost the whole game!!!..not with lightening, or even a heavy rain, but it was just a steady little rain throughout almost the whole game...we were "wet" by the end of the game...lol...neways, that's about all..ttyl!

Okay, We had our first football game last night, and since I am 1 of 4 water girls, It was my job to keep them hydrated, and the sweat off their faces.

But being the first game of the year, we also had a pep assembly. Erin, Erica, and I were so excited, because this year, being trainers and all, we got to sit with the football boys!!..and were recognized...The pep assemblies are always so much fun; there's always a contest between all the classes to see who is loudest and proudest!!..lol...V-I-C-T-O-R-Y, that the Senior Battle Cry...that's right, we were the loudest...and it only took us 4 years!!lol...

Anyways, I had so much fun. We beat the Jay Bulldogs 41 to 14....I knew we were going to do fine, although my Hornets did have us worried at the end of the 1st half. Evidently they had a great 1/2 time speech, because we went from 14 to 41 all in the 2nd half. Oh it was so much fun.. Here are the 4 trainers..from left to right...Erica, the junior...and then Erin, Becca, and Me...the 3 Seniors...we have so much fun together, and laugh so much...They are pretty much some of the bestest friends that I have....Well that's about all just thought I'd share the great news with you!

Go HORNETS!!! ....lol...
