“The Meal” 2010 finally happened!!!! After too many months of ‘planning’, my wife and I hosted four wonderful Junior High girls from my Sunday School class.
In no particular order:
-
- Gretch
-
- Wally
-
- Skylar
-
- Bert
Even though “The Meal” was to take place about 4 months ago, it actually got planned via Facebook on July 2, 2010. The event took place on July 3, 2010. The girls showed up to our home around 5:30pm…all giggles and fun! There were secrets that kyteman was not in on. One of them was that Sky had made the ‘amburger buns!!!! Delish!!!!
After discussing with Lori what ingredients were in our kitchen and which needed to be purchased at the grocers, we made a list and off the 5 of us trekked. Wally had to show us all how you get “electrocuted” when you touch a grounded hydro wire.
At the grocery store, we saw Bert’s brother, Sam. I said hello to him, however, according to the girls, I didn’t do it right. I’ve discovered that I don’t do anything right, according to them…whatever…at least I don’t WHINE 24/7!!!! (minus 5 points)
We got back, bbq’d and devoured some AWESOME ‘amburgers, had some worms in dirt chocolate pudding (I love chocolate pudding), and some Coke (not Pepsi or Wootbeer).
After pounding down the food (all the ‘amburgers were the best), the girls went out and jumped on the trampoline until Wally’s parents came to pick her up. Then, I gave the other three rides to their homes.
According to these four great girls, “The Meal” 2011 will be better. They have already been making plans. One regret I have is that we didn’t start “The Meal” back in 1990. Oh well, we started it in 2010 with Gretch, Wally, Sky, and Bert…and I for one, loved every minute!!!!
I’ve been teaching Grade 8 Sunday School for about 20 years. I love it!!!! And I love “my kids”!!!! Next year I will have both of my OWN kids in my class. Can’t wait.
