Linerider 2

Hey I just found Linerider 2 this morning. It's way better than the link I gave you yesterday. Much easier to edit and do stuff with. If you're going to waste your time playing, mid-as-well use the good stuff. So here it is.

Happy Happy

Hope you're all still doing great and having fun. I really hope Christmas was good for you.

Remember that there is NO YOUTH GROUP this coming Sunday Dec. 31 because it's New Years Eve and I will be at the New Years Revolution Retreat.

For those headed to the reteat........
You need to be to Mission Meadows between 12-1pm on Sat. Dec. 30. We will no be serving lunch so either eat before you leave or grab something on your way. We will be done at noon on Jan. 1 we're asking that you be picked up pretty close to noon from Mission Meadows so the staff can pack all the equipment and clean up and get home before midnight. Quick directions.....Midway Park is on Rt 430 off of 86 near Beamus......the camp is just after Midway on the left. you'll see the sign.....maybe a mile after Midway

Here's a list of what to bring.
Sleeping bag and pillow
Towel and washcloth
Toilettries (soap, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste,
Bible and writing utensil
clothes for Sat, Sun, and Monday =comfortable but appropriate.
sneakers
if snow bring appropriate outdoor clothes
bring a snack to share (give it to registration people when you arrive)

alternative things to bring:
guitar if you choose worshipleading workshop
bowling ball (this is really just a joke)
board games

For everyone.........something to mess around with. it's called LineRider. You draw the route that the little guy will sledride on. Below are two videos from guys messing around with Linerider. the first is our friend David Crowder who you may remember from a past video as a great worship leader and a me look alike. The second is a urban drawing. Don't be put off by how much time these guys messed with it to get theirs this way.....just have fun with the hill.

Hey

Countdown to Christmas 2006. Not too long now and you'll be eating until you're stuffed and getting presents that you'll forget about come February. YIPEE!

I went to the Christmas Concert at WAHS last night. WOW you guys are wicked talented. Seriously. Riane didn't tell me she was singing a solo.....nice job! Lindsey, and Nyssa....when you all came in the back....I was sitting on the side that you were on....and literally I swear I could pick your voices out.....i could just hear the texture of your voices and I said "I think that's Lindsey and that's Nyssa." Burt as always a great job playing string bass. Everyone was just so good!

Remember no youth group this coming Sunday or next Sunday we won't meet again until Jan. 7th. Wow that seems like a long way away!

I'm going to add something soon to "Aaron's thoughts" blog. Check in over there this week.

I'll also be adding things to this blog pretty regularly. Particularly if you're going to New Years Revolution...you need to check in here. I'll put up a list of "to bring" stuff. It's still not too late if you want to go.....but you better let me know like now.

That's God's blogs book that I told you about...I'm finishing it off this morning at FreshCup.....I told you it's in the top 3 books I've read this year......it might have made it's way to the best book read in 2006!!!! It's THAT good. If you get something you don't want for Christmas....exchange it and then go get this book!

Do you know how cool I am? I'm the only youth pastor in the county to update their blog since like September! What would you do without it?

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The R key on my laptop broke. Depending on how I type will depend if it falls off. It's really annoying. I looked on e-bay.....it's like 5 bucks for a new R. That's crazy. So I think I'm going to check the seats in my car and our couches at home and see if I can find 5 bucks.........because typing is insanely hard!!!!

Sorry for being a little slack lately on this blog.

REC is moving for good to Tuesday nights. 7pm. The goal is to not change that again.

This Sunday is the last Youth Group for this year. We will NOT HAVE YOUTH GROUP Dec. 24 or 31st. This week we will go to the Ward's house afterward to eat what's left of their food for their open house. Please make sure to tell your parents not to pick you up right at 8pm. We'll be over there for a little while.

NEW YEARS REVOLUTION........it's not too late to give me registrations, but you need to get those to me ASAP. I can't tell you how bad I want you to go!

Ultimate frisbee or Dodgeball?

Coming right up

Hey everyone........day off school.......HA!

THIS SUNDAY.........4pm there is a really cool concert at N. Warren. Triumphant is playing. They are a swing/big band style group. Really really good. I'm going, so if you're not doing anything I hope to see you there.......If you need bribed, there's pie and soup afterward!

If you're not coming to Triumphant we're still having youth group right around 6:30......we may not be in the youth lounge because of the soup and pie thing.....so look for us, or for notes telling you where we are.

It's not too late to consider going to the New Years Revolution. What do I need to do to get you to go? A little dance? Jugling? I can't tell you how bad I want you to go to this event. It's going to be really good. If you haven't got me your registration forms.....you need to do that ASAP!

Anyone play typing shooter yet? I'm addicted!
