Labor Day Picnic

Well, on August 2, 2013 was Labor Day, and I have to tell you something, it was a blast! Here at the college, we had a picnic, the best that I ever had! There was food, a dunk tank, sports, singing, and good old fashion preaching!! The whole day was pretty much awesome sauce.
The day started with me and my whole room sleeping in until noon! We all figured it would be the last day  for a long time we get to sleep in past 7 am, so we slept in!! After waking up we got dressed (for the last day in a long time we can go casual all day) and headed out to the main area for the picnic. I soon realized that the picnic wouldn't start until 1:30 pm. yeah total bummer. So I began hanging out with a new pal of mine, his name is Peyton and he is pretty kewl. So we goofed off until it was time to eat.
At 1:30 it was time for lunch! Burgers, hot dogs, chicken wings, coleslaw, everything you need! I somehow made it first in line, yeah!!! I grabbed my food, and went inside to the chow hall and ate with a group of guys, one of them was one of my room mates and his two brothers were there as well. We all ate together and afterwards proceeded to hang out at the softball fields.
At the fields, we just watched and cheered for fellow student playing (I would have played, but it was 90 something degrees, not good for this eskimo) softball. After the games were over we went to the gymnasium to play dodgeball, yeah, that was epic! It was inside an air conditioned room, so I played this time! I think we played ten games or so before it turned out to be 6 pm.
At 6 pm, everyone gathered at the main area outside for PEACH COBBLER and ICE CREAM!!! While stuffing our faces is, we enjoyed multiple testimonies and singing groups. Then came time for the good stuff, the preaching!! It was good preaching, he preached on being vessel for God, and how He will form us if we allow Him.
All in all, the picnic was great in my book. Thanks for reading!
