SonPower | Day 1 & 2
Sorry that I didn't get to give an update last night, but I refuse to pay for internet access at a hotel. So here's what's been going on since we left yesterday....
Thank you, Lord, for the rain yesterday...but did it have to be so much? We left the church just before 1:00 yesterday afternoon, and it did not stop raining until after we got to Tallahassee last evening. We had a great supper at Steak & Shake...a new experience for some of our students. After we checked in at the hotel, several of us headed out to the pool for a dip before we went to bed. Because of all the rain, the water was very cold, to say the least. We had a great time!
This morning we had a relaxed morning before leaving for Orlando. We left the hotel about 9:15 in search for the golden arches...to no avail. We were out of Tallahassee about 45 minutes before we finally found a place to stop and eat. We were scared we weren't going to find something before they stopped serving breakfast....but we made it.
After lunch at Subway, we checked into our new home for the next five days, The Florida Hotel. One of the great things about The Florida Hotel is that it is conveniently connected to a HUGE mall. We made good use of some free time by doing a little shopping before supper. We ate together in the food court before our first rehearsal. Following the rehearsal, everyone enjoyed a concert by 33 Miles. Zach, Morgan, and Lindsay got to hang out with the band after the concert was over. They were all smiles!
It's getting quite late, so I will sign off for now. I will try to have you another update tomorrow night. Thanks for your prayers. Sleep tight!

Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser
Here are some of the pictures from the Father's Day pancake breakfast. Thanks so much to those who cooked, cleaned, and decorated. Also, thanks to those who came early and ate with us. We had a great time of food and fellowship as we honored our dad's on Father's Day.
Four More Days
The blog is just about complete. Be sure to tell your family and friends where to find us on the web. Just in case they forget, I have placed a link on the CBC website on the Music & Worship page. I'll try to get some pictures from the Pancake Breakfast posted this afternoon. By the way, Universal Studios tickets came in this morning...we're set to go! See ya tonight.

Five Days and Counting
There are only five more days until we are set out on a grand adventure. I cannot wait to get on the road. Several of you have been by the office to turn in balances that you owe...Thanks! Also, a couple of you have not turned in your orange release forms. Please bring those to me tomorrow night at supper.
Parents, I am almost certain that we will have internet access in our hotel rooms, so we will try to keep you updated on how things go throughout the week. Check back often for updates and new pictures. Also, please feel free to leave any comments that you like.
That's about all for now. I will try to give another update as our departure date gets closer.
