we had our final summer event sunday evening. it was a traditional pool party. we moved the traditional site though one of our youth leaders million dollar residential properties they renovated and have on the market. we’d been out there before for food break when we had a day on the lake. so i had pictures. i took those pictures to make a poster for this event. i thought it was a pretty good poster… till this evening.. the youth informed me that one of their own is making out right smack dab in the middle of the poster in the picture i put up there. sure enough.. he is, and i did. (i added the new caption)
i’ve got no problem with some light pda. been around it a long time. this however is a first for me. gosh i hope it will be the last.

youth group games : not just for larry & michael
so this is pretty cool. some folks have take the freestyle stuff to the game of horse. not as great as larry and michael (though mj’s outfit does bring down the overall legend status if you ask me), but still pretty good. i can only imagine that this would be fun work junior high boys for an hour or so to try and make one of these types of shots.
