Today Jace and I had a full day of practice planned out for us. The schedule only gave us an hour break! It was a boring practice considering we were only in two of the scenes. I watched the play to see how it was coming along, while Jace battled it out playing Plants vs. Zombies... he's such a boy...
My family was planning on going mini golfing with one of our friends, the Conrads. They happen to be the Artful Dodger's family. However they would be leaving me and Jace because our practice wouldn't get over in time. We ended up going anyways because they were done with us for the day, so all worked out. I guess the Conrad's ward goes on little outings like this a lot. When we got there all the kids rushed to pick out their favorite color of golf ball and putter while the adults walked and talked and occasionally helped the younger kids golf. Everybody did 18 holes before going back to eat a yummy dinner. The amazing dinner consisted of: Pulled pork in a roll, fruit salad, chips...lot of them, creamies, veggies in ranch, soda/water, and little crackers and a variety of cheese. Now I don't know about you, but to me that is quite the spread for a church outing. It was kind of miserable to golf because it was so stinkin' hot, but everybody still had fun. When we got back to our "department" and Maci calls it, we saw all of our neighbors visiting out on the grassy area near the apartments. My mom was trying to hurry everybody in so she wouldn't be a bother to them. While she chatted up a storm with Jessica, Maci was having her own conversation with Vanessa. Vanessa could tell my mom wanted all the kids in the apartment and told Maci in her English accent to get inside the house right now. I would quote her but I have my mom's memory skills and forgot what she said. Maci, being the spicy character she is, didn't listen to Vanessa. That was a mistake on Maci's part. Vanessa then used the trick of counting down. Maci was very brave, but by the time Vanessa got to two, Maci was hugging onto Mom's leg for dear life. Vanessa wanted Maci inside not stuck to Mom's legs so she kept on counting. By now Maci was running into the house laughing and screaming all at the same time. Mom went to round up the other more obedient kids that didn't need a count down while I tried to give Maci a shower. Mom came back and went straight up to mom and said, "That was fun , but kinda scary..." All in all the day has been quite eventful.
