Last night was awesome! My church has a really great junior high program led by Scott. We do really awesome stuff on Wednesdays. One time we had a candy night, we had a pizza night, we had a snow cone night,and we're having nacho night next week, and last night was a pool party! We had really great taquitos, Dr. Pepper and Coke, and lots of different kinds of chips. One of the leaders had brought in a big air mattress. All the boys started to play king of the hill. I started to play along with two other girls. Then I pushed off this one guy and he called two of his buddies two help him get me. They were out to get me even though I had only pushed one of them off once. When they tried to get me though, I pushed them off a lot. One of the leaders, Raymond (he was the one who brought in the mattress) came to play. He went under the mattress and lifted it up! Everyone fell off,except for me. That, was the most fun part of the game. I finally fell off, only to pop back up saying,"That was awesome! Let's do it again!"
Somebody had asked Scott last Sunday if they could get baptized at the party, and Scott said yes. After baptizing him, Scott asked if anybody else would like to get baptized and I said yes! He baptized me, and then I got out and asked Raymond to hand me back my towel, and he said,"Sure. But now it's time for your 'official' baptizing!" and threw me in the pool. I got out and went in the jacuzzi. Then Scoot threw pennies in the pool and told us that for every 20 pennies, we'd get a candy. When all the pennies were gone, we went up to get our candy. I got four candies. They were Skittles, Three Musketeers, Twix, and Reeses. The party was great! I had so much fun!

I had so much fun. It was awsome when you got baptized. I got baptized too a long time ago.

Wow, I'm so glad you got baptized, Danielle. That is such an awesome moment in your life. I remember getting baptized when I was seven years old in front of the church. It made my decision to follow Jesus seem really real to me.
It sounds like you really do have a great youth group and youth leaders. What a blessing.
Again, your blogs are really enjoyable to read. I can picture everything you're writing about; you include enough details to make your stories come alive!
