This week is Spring Break for the kids so we've done lots of fun things. Here's a few pictures.

Some of the older girls were over one afternoon (after a day of playing croquet on the front lawn and then making homemade pizza) and we had strawberries dipped in melted chocolate chips and cut up rice krispie treats. Interesting that they are all wearing red...a predominant color (and yes, it can be gang related too) in the neighborhood. These are very sweet girls.


Jonathan, Betsy (both Kid Trek leaders) and I went bowling with the older guys...

One afternoon we walked with 29 kids and 1 mom to Terrell Elementary school. We flew kites, played Kajabi Can Can, played on the swings, and had KFC for lunch. What a fun day. The kids loved flying the kites.

One night 4 girl leaders (Pattie, Vicky, Cindy and I, Patty) from Kids Club at Canoas Elementary School took several of our 4th and 5th grade kids to a place called Sky High. It's basically a huge warehouse where you trampoline. Yes, I, Patty, trampolined and yes, I was sore the next day!

On Saturday we walked with a bunch of the neighborhood kids to Canoas Elementary to The Hunt, a huge Easter egg hunt where they hide thousands of eggs filled with fun stuff. The kids had a great time. It's a fun community event. Here's Stacy and I with some of the older neighborhood girls and after that, you'll see the kids on the line ready and eager to begin.

A fun-filled week of building relationships!
