What we did yesterday....

After lunch almost everyone was done with school, and so while we waited for the others to finish, we got badminton rackets, and had a contest to see who could bounce a gumball the most times on the end of it. the goal was to get to 15. Elayna got to 14 once and 13 twice...I got to 13 once and 12 once...but we gave up before anyone got to 15...you try it...its not easy! After everyone had finished their school, we played more capture the flag...then we were going to play cops and robbers but everyone was tired of running so we came inside and helped make supper then Catherine, Elayna and I took Daniel and Anna for a walk in their strollers. When we got back, we set the table and ate supper.
After supper Mr. Pierce took Papa and I and Elayna and Catherine for a quick car tour of the NC State campus... They have a "centennial campus" that has some 100 year plan or something...anyways we were saying that we'll probably not want to go to college there...you know, most colleges can teach you what you need to know in only 4 or 5 years...who wants to go to a college with an 100 year plan! <grin>
after driving around the campus, they took us to their Asian market shopping strips beyond shopping strips of Asian grocery stores, salons, clothing stores, restaurants, and anything else...there was one "Indian deserts and ice creams" and there's no end to them!! And there are a good many Mexican stores in there too, so I guess its the international market....I've never seen anything like it!
After seeing all those, we went to their friend's house the Cabbots....we sat and talked to Mr. Cabbot for a long time...he has a heart for planting house churches...like what we're gonna be doing...it was really great...we were there a long time....oh, and the real reason we went is because they were borrowing this cool video from the pierces called return to Huana and its a documentary on this tribe in Papua New Guinea...anyways I'd read the book about it... Mission Possible and so they wanted me to see the video...it sounds pretty cool...
When we got back, we played Scatagories for a bit...and then went to bed....
Other things...I finished Bruchko yesterday so now I'm reading Tish Tales...I also finished I Chronicles...
