Day 5: Last Day!

Wow, we seem to survive every year!It's funny when you look back, the time just seems to have flown by. It is always so sad when the time at Teenpact is over yet, relieving that we don't have to sleep on uncomfortable cots, take a shower in moldy showers, and wake up early in the morning (well, some of us do). But the time we had was fun and with friends, even better.

Some lovely gifts from our friends at Teenpact.

Three of us girls ran down to the chapel to play our last pieces of music.

As you can see I am a prodigy child..

...And Lizzie too. :)

Playing with passion.

I love those Yamaha pianos.

On our way out I nearly stepped on this caterpillar.

Lizzie and I on the "the bridge of Khaza-doom".

Pretending to fall.

The final drive home, without A/C. Thanks Lizzie for being such a trooper.

And thank you, for being a patient reader. :)

Love,

Teenpact: Day Two

Here is day 2 of Teenpact. This is rather dusty news, I know, but we thought we would follow through with posting pictures. For more pictures and a neat blog, visit our good friend Rebecca's. She posted much quicker than we did :).

We fed the kids breakfast and then headed out to Austin to help some dear friends of ours. They are soon moving to Manhattan and so we helped them with some housework.

Caro and Lizzie playing around at their pool.

They rather enjoyed the nice, cool water!

I took a few shots of the girls trying to hold still for the camera. I love these type, when they're looking away but with giggly smiles.

Here is some of the usual fun, Ultimate Frisbee!

Chicken Alfredo for dinner! Lots of pasta to be cooked...

Lots of chicken to be chopped and sauce to be stirred to make a delicious meal.

All the wonderful kitchen help! In this photo we had just sung Jesus Lover Of My Soul in harmony.
