Thirteen Teenagers

Russ and I chaperoned 13 teenagers to World's of Fun Amusement Park.  We survived.  Our children almost did not.  Boy were they troopers!  We dragged their little selves all over the park, Emma got to ride some rides that Leo was too little to go on, which made for some drama... but a trip to the candy store helped!

So 5:00 rolls and after being at the park since 10am in 97 degree heat, Emma and Leo were begging to go home.  Did we take them home?  No, because the kids we were chaperoning were from our church Youth Group and there was a Mercy Me concert that night at the park and that was the main reason we were there!  So our poor tired wrung out children trooped along even longer and last until 9pm!  I was so proud of them!  The concert was fantastic!  I love Mercy Me!  David Crowder Band and Hawk Nelson opened up for them.  

The teens were great with our kids.  They all obeyed, no trouble makers no drama so the whole day went great.  Now today is a do nothing day!
