The Great State Fair of Oklahoma!

I love the weekends.

Friday at Will Rogers I had a little girl ask me for a Bible so that she could learn more about God.  I am so excited!  Her reading level isn't high enough for an adult Bible, so I plan on buying her a children's Bible that she can start to learn from.  She is one of the kids I have gotten closest to so I am so excited to see her wanting to learn about God on her own!

Friday night was Bunko for Boobies!  It was a lot of time, even though I lost.  I lost so badly that I got the "lowest score" gift.  But it's always fun to spend time with my mom, sisters, and aunt, and it was for a great cause!

Yesterday I went back to Community Youth Outreach.  We had a scavenger hunt and let the kids take pictures with cameras that had been donated to the center.  They had a great time, and it was an excellent chance to get to know a few of the kids better (we were split up into "teams" so I had four young girls on my team).  By the end, they went from not really knowing me to LOVING "Miss Lauren."

After CYO, it was Miss Lillian Lee's birthday party!  I cannot believe she's three already!  She is getting so big - it is crazy to see how grown up she was at the party.  We bought her two Tangled books - which I wrapped as we were walking out the door.  I'm sure you can imagine how lovely that was.

Then Jeff and I went to the fair!  Here is what I've decided: I LOVE the fair.  I wait all year for the fair.  And what do I do at the fair?  Spend too much on admission, spend too much on greasy food that doesn't taste that good but I HAVE to have every year anyway, and walk around a dirty stinky fairground.  And yet - it is one of my favorite things ever.  :)  We went into the ag barns and they had brand new piglets - only a day old!  They were so cute and tiny.  Then Jeff played a game and won me a stuffed pink pig in order to remember the piglets at the fair.

Church this morning was amazing.  It was all about being a world changing leader.  The first step?  Coming up with a mission.  I want to challenge anyone and everyone who reads this - what is your mission?  I want to come up with my own, as well.  Something that Jeff and I will have to work on together.

And a great excitement of the day - one of my two tomato plants sprouted overnight!  Yay, baby tomato plants!  I can't wait for them to grow!
