October club was so much fun! We had a several new faces-- both babies and teens!
The kids came dressed in their costumes!
Lion Aiden with Daddy Justin
We all played a get to know you game where we had a race to find new and unknown facts about each other! And since I played, I totally forgot to take pictures. But it would have looked like a bunch of people with paper and pens talking to each other if you care to picture it in your mind.
Next, some volunteers participated in a fun, messy game. Using popular halloween candy and snacks, using frosting as glue, they raced to complete the word "Baby". Each group had different strategies and it was fun to see what the final result was!
Amy and Brandi
Jaelie and Taylor
Kayla and Justin
Here are the results:
And just when we thought the game was over... it continued on. One partner had to hold the glass and the other was racing to clean off the glass by eating all of the candy!
{Amy, please don't hate me for this picture, k?}
Things started to wind down when we went to the comfy couch room and sang a few songs while Tanya played guitar.
Debbie shared a touching message about how certain events and situations in our lives cause us to put on different masks in order to try to please the people around us. She even brought a picture of her daughter with different masks as a visual. It all came down to saying that our God, our Creator, loves the real us. He creates us exactly the way he wanted us and he doesn't expect and he doesn't want us to pretend to be what we are not. I wish I would have just video-taped her speaking because I can't even do it justice. Want to do it again Debbie!?
Before the meal, the moms enjoyed some "shopping" and they all picked out a few items to take home! Who doesn't love shopping?!
And YoungLives club isn't complete without a meal... and it was delicious-- BBQ and french fries. Yum!!
We had a great time! For more information about our club-- to join, to volunteer, or even just to ask a question, just leave a comment and we'll get back to you!
