who's afraid of the big bad wolf?

Today we went to a library program, probably one in a long line of programs we'll visit over the course of this summer. This one was about wolves. or more accurately, wolf-dogs. the lady who was the speaker brought an actual wolf-dog with her. dissapointingly, this one was low-bred, so He didn't have a lot of wolf in him. his face looked like a husky or malimute, but the rest of his body had that brown-patchy wolfish look. after the lady told them that the fur was spun by volunteers and used to make purses and stuff, the kids kept reaching up to the poor animal and pulling its hair out. fortunately (for the kids ;) that didn't seem to hurt the dog. unfortunately, the dog got tired of the constent attention and took off, (not running, walking) through the room. one of the in audience explained that the dog was tired of being petted, and was probably moving out of the way of the pestering little hands. until we meet again,

Got home from church not to long ago, and right now I'm listening do adventures in article. Eugene is trying to find out who his father is....right now he's at the homeless shelter. yesterday I made the mistake of telling my mother, about ebay wrapper cash. actually, my mom's not a prob, it's my sister who happened to be listening in (ahem kristen...) and so now she knows about it too, which means i can't confiscate her wrapper. you're problly wondering why I want those wrappers. The thing is Hersey's has a promo, where you can use the codes on the inside of the wrappers to redeem for ebay cash or stuff in the hersey 'store.' anyway, I got Evan's wrapper so now i have 4 pts.

We say goodbye like this...

we clap our hands for bible school....this song has been sung to end bible school for as long as I can remember. it's like our church's vbs anthom or something. anyway, the play this year short. it was about finding clues to heaven. All of us girls in the young people's class were part of the parable the 'ten virgins.' we wore the white choir robes that had been used for sis. Robin's wedding, and wore reaths of (fake) roses in our hair. I think it was quite effective. In the play, I was one of the five who missed 'heaven'. talk about into the part! we were supposed to be begging God for one more chance, and was kinda hard not to get into the part. I mean, if you can really imagine it, walking to the place where God was supposed to be, and finding out that you were doomed to hell....what would you do? probably what we did in the play. fall down on our knees and beg, cry out to God for a second chance. also, today Jake, Erin's guide dog puppy, came home today. the poor little guy is stretched out beside the couch now, asleep. he's tuckered out. Anyway, all's well that ends well. go with God my bretheren. (and sisteren.)
