Valentine Banquet

Part of last week’s busyness included taking this crazy crew of kids……and pulling off a Valentine’s banquet for the entire church.

The kids did everything!

They set up the tables…

…using wedding pictures to decorate – as well as candles, streamers, M&M’s and conversation hearts.

They did the cooking.

And with my own Dagmar (in the black apron) in charge of the kitchen, everything ran smoothly.

Or – close enough.

And serving.

Which also went surprising well. (Oh yes – that is a tuxedo! Only the best for our guests!)

Then – following the delicious three course meal – the kids provided some world class entertainment!

Well – okay – it was actually a series of skits that the kids wrote full of inside jokes and some wigs that left the audience in stitches. (That’s my Pedro in the center!)

And when our guests – of all ages – left, the kids cleaned up.

I was so proud of how hard those kids worked and what a good job they did!

And I’m tired.

Very tired.

Working with teenagers is not for the faint of heart!
