Dodgeball to Dance party!

Derek, me, and Blaine, at Blaine's 17th Anniversary party earlier this month

Saturday morning some of us from Eden house and a few outsiders, made up a team, and took part in a dodgeball tournament hosted at the Acadia gym. It was a fundraiser for the Wolfville farmers market, put on by the Katimavik group. We came in 3rd place! Yup 3rd place is pretty good................even if there were just 4 teams. Hopefully the next tourney will have way more teams!

After Derek and I got back home from dodgeball and getting some party food, we worked on decorating and reorganizing our living room. Derek helped me string up paper airplanes attached by strings, to the ceiling fan. Lucky we have a step ladder, because its a pretty tall vaulted ceiling. The airplanes flew great once the fan was turned on! So much better than I had anticipated!

One of Derek's numerous passions is flying. He talks about it very often. This summer we will (Lord willing) be heading to Disney World for his vacation. We got the hotel already. But we still need to do lots of fundraising for the flights and park passes. Anybody have some helpful advice for either fundraising or Disney World its self?

In the evening Eden house, (my house) hosted a flying themed fund-raiser dance party for Derek. Thanks to Blaine's sound system and Derek's music we had the dance floor shaking! Not very many people showed up, but still we raised 66 dollars. Great fun!

While dancing tonight I thought of how David danced before the Lord, and what it might have looked like. Scandalous! 

  "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the LORD with all his might, 15 while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the LORD with shouts and the sound of trumpets.

 16 As the ark of the LORD was entering the City of David, Michal daughter of Saul watched from a window. And when she saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD, she despised him in her heart.

2 Samuel 6:15-16

I love to dance! I don't know many steps. I just dance! I know I will really miss this part of life when I move on from here. 

Stay in the LIGHT
