As a youth pastor, sometimes your the bug, sometimes you’re the windshield. So the other night we had a trunk or treat program at Lighthouse. It was pretty fun and overwhelming at the same time. We were way understaffed for the more than 300 people who showed up. Anyway, I had set up for a party in the Youth Room, but since I only ever had 6 people at a time, it wasn’t nearly as much fun as I had envisioned. Of course all the candy was consumed, but mostly by those under 6th grade.
I also had soda there for the night. It was close to the end of the night, and Kaylin Hill wanted to take a whole bottle of Mountain Holler ( a Mountain Dew knock off from Save-a-lot). I told her there was no way she was getting a whole 2 liter. She is hyper enough without the caffeine. So she proceeds to steal my phone. Ok that was a little frustrating. But I was not giving in to her terrorist tactics. She threatened to erase my contact list, empty threats I am sure. But you start to wonder.
Instead I have decided to get even. Her and my young cousin Madeline decided to put a “fun” picture of themselves on my phone and make it the wallpaper. So in the spirit of getting even, and having a lot of fun, I decided to post the pictures of them here for thousands on the internet to view. Do you suppose that will make them pause before they mess with me again! Probably, not. But I needed to blog about something and this seemed to be pretty funny.
Looking good girls. Hope you had a good halloween. Luv ya!
Your Pastor
I am sure the thought has already occured to you that you are just encouraging her to steal it again. She loves attention if you haven’t noticed yet.
Although, that little sweety got in a whole lotta trouble when mom got her alone. I am a firm believer if an adult tells you to do something or stop doing something (that doesn’t bring harm to yourself of course) you do it. Now!
Just for the record. I hate those pictures. LOL! I know all the teen girls are doing that “pose” thing lately but I don’t like it.
Smiles!

Yeah, it was certainly an interesting night! I don’t think any of us could have predicted how it turned out!

Now I have a question. Who was manning the cake walk when these two beauties were taking pictures of themselves? LOL! Actually they were one of the few that wanted to stay at their spot. I appreciated that sooooooo much!
