On the Road Again...

We woke up this morning and had a complimentary continental breakfast and sung Happy Birthday to Sarah. Once we got into the van we swapped stories about our night... there was a sleepwalker (for real). While we traveled through six states and journeyed over the Mississippi several times, we played games like Mad Libs and telephone. We would start out with a sentence like, "One day a dog went for a walk, then he crossed the road and tripped over a rock. He was mad, so he kicked a cow," and ended with "A frog tripped and kicked a cow to New Orleans." This was one of the things that entertained us during the twelve hour drive. Unfortunately, after four hours of this, we were bored. To our delight, we finally arrived at our hotel at around nine o' clock and went swimming. We will later retire to our rooms for the night.

Praise and Prayer:
Praise God for answering our prayers today for our safe travel and good health. Pray for our 400 mile trip to New Orleans tomorrow, as well as the arrivals of the other teams. Pray for continued good health with the very hot and humid weather. We sincerely appreciate your prayers!

"Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize." - 1 Corinthians 9:24

We woke up and packed the van
And from the bad weather we ran
To make our way across six states
At Cici's pizza to clean our plates
And will now go to sleep (if we can)
