The Weekend

This weekend we had the pleasure of going on a canoe trip with our youth group.  It was much fun.  There were only two canoes that tipped and both times they were in practice sessions.  This is how it happened:  There was a water fight going on between the people in my canoe and the people in Jared's canoe.  My canoe had efficientely beaten them in the water fight when they were trying to get lots of water on us and tipped their canoe.  One of the kids in Jared's canoe went and climbed into our canoe, which was not smart.  The other person in my canoe, Jim, called out and said that someone should get the other canoe so we could row onto the shore.  The kid that climbed into our canoe took it upon himself to jump out of our canoe and tipped our canoe also.  We all had a great time and are still friends.  The weekend was capped when Melanie, Mark, and Matthew made it to our house at around 2:00 in the morning.
