Chick-fil-a Friday Family Fun Day in Dothan. Best Day of the Week.

Soooo, sorry for the late post. Got busy and tired and a tad bit lazy. You know me, haha. But it was amazing! You gotta love CFFFD (Chick-fil-a Friday Family Fun Day). It honestly is the best day of the week. For Fridays we invite all the parents to come to camp to see a camp day and experience what their kids experience for the week, and in doing so they get to do all the skills that their campers have been doing as well. It is insane. When we were in Gulf Breeze, there was over 1000 people at CFFFD! That was absolutely incredible!

At CFFFD the local Chick-fil-a that we partner with provides chicken sandwiches for lunch for all attenders! It is awesome. The parents and the campers love it, and believe it or not I have not gotten tired of Chick-fil-a yet. I have been grown into a Chick-fil-a addict and love it! Waffle fries, I used to think weren't that good, are my favorite part of Chick-fil-a. And, as I mentioned before I LOVE LOVE LOVE the lemonade, it is soooo dang good. I am kinda not looking forward to not having any Chick-fil-a's even remotely close to me in Grand Rapids. But it's all good, I can eat some in California for two weeks when I get back!

I love playing for the parents and showing them how we have been leading the campers in worship everyday and how we bring them to the throne to praise God. The best is when the parents get into the songs and do the hand motions with the kids. This week we played a special song cause we are in Alabama. It was the tune Sweet Home Alabama, but we changed it to Sweet Home Up In Heaven. Everyone cheered when Anna (our worship leader) started the guitar lick. It was so fun to jam that song, something I can check off of my bucket list, that I played Sweet Home Alabama in Alabama! Are you kidding me?!?

And afterwards getting to eat Chick-fil-a is always a great cap to a great week, filled with some amazing memories and awesome fellowship with the children and parents and of course my friends on the red team. I cannot believe I am so blessed to be doing this as a job. It is unreal.

As true to myself, I forgot stuff in Dothan. Imagine that right? Haha, luckily the youth pastor is going to send it to Westside here in Gainesville, Florida. If I would have said I would be in Florida this summer, I would have said you are crazy, but I'm here. Boom!

Late.
