Kingdom Technical Party














We had a blast this past Friday night at our Kingdom Technical Party. Mom and Dad host this party every year to say thanks to all the crew that worked such long hours. We had a huge display of food and some wonderful deserts. Mom fixed: sausage balls, quiche, pizza rolls, Texas torte, cheese dip & chips, salsa, cheese balls, Orange Fluff (Dad's favorite and Troy calls it Dead People's Salad), Chicken and bacon wraps, and ham and biscuits. Everyone went around and introduced ourselves and how long we had been working on the Kingdom. There was a lot of laughter and we even watched the program again.
While watching the program you learn things you didn't know went on backstage. Like for instance, Sarah Holloway told me that when Walter came out of the tomb and turned around to the choir, he said, "How'd you like that entrance!" He's a hoot! During the program, we fast-forwarded Bruce...Jim said, "Hey Robert, don't fast forward it, people might get saved....Earl I'm worried about you!" Mr. Earl Teasley is a real gentleman and a funny man. He designed all the special rails made out of sticks and did a wonderful job!

Luke and I didn't leave Mom and Dad's til around 12:30...it was a great time! We have so many wonderful friends through the Kingdom. I know I've said this before, if you think you don't have enough time or energy for the Kingdom, give it a try anyway. You'll be surprised at how the Lord will bless your life and your time!

My gosh was this a BLAST!!!! Isn't it great to see this group of people together? All ages....all stages of life....and with all the differences, we all fit in!!! Doesn't matter if you do or do NOT have kids! Doesn't matter if you work outside the home or not! Doesn't matter if you're REAL talented or just eager to work!

This reminds me of the song "There's Room At The Cross For You"....there is ALWAYS room in The Kingdom for ANYONE that wants to be a part! THAT is just another blessing, isn't it Mel???

Your daddy and I are so proud of you and Luke....LOVE YOU!!!! YOUR MOMMA
