I will certainly be catching all of you up to speed on the latest happenin's in Central Texas.
We had our 7th Annual Fundraising Banquet this past Monday and it was SO Successful! We had soooooo many compliments. Tons of people told us that it was the best banquet that they had ever seen before. And most of those folks had been to the past 6 years worth of banquets. We were very pleased. I don't know the total dollars raised, but I think it is lingering around $40,000. I am pumped about that number! I think there was a little more pledged last year, but last years banquet was a wee bit bigger and the economy was doing much better back then.
I wish you could have seen all of the kids! DANG, there were a lot of kids there that night! You tell a teenager that they will get free pizza and a free shirt and half the school shows up! Come on out, folks...
It is nice to take a breather for a day or two. I plan to be more consistent with this now that the banquet is over. This is a huge time consumer. It is SO worth it!
What I want to blog about next time is how I feel about Halloween. What's the story with Halloween? Are costumes evil? What about Chocolate, does it come from the devil? Should Christians trick or treat? Am I going to hell because I like Twix? I feel like you are either one extreme or the other. I love Halloween or we don't celebrate it at all. Well, there may be a middle ground. Is there such a thing?
More to follow. I have got to head up to the high school ... You know why?
BECAUSE HIGH SCHOOLERS ARE WORTH IT!
