Even though we were all dead to the world, we woke up at sometime that had a 6 as the first number, put on our Sunday best, and trudged over to the GTAC to take a short bus ride to Newport Richey. Why? Because it was International Teens Involved day! I wasn't a part of it, but I was a self-appointed cheerleader and spent the day running to different events being a little too loud with my cheering but dang it I am so proud of my talented friends!
Waiting around for the events to begin because wouldn't you know we got there early so we could stand around the freezing building!

| One of our beautiful counselors: Kacky (short for Catherine...we had two in one cabin and someone had to be nicknamed!) |
The church that hosted TI was a mega church...I'd never been to a church that big. They had maps of it, for pete's sake. In our spare time we studied them.
 |
| Lauren, Erika, and Emily. |
 |
| Quick break in between events. Even though the tile was COLD we didn't have any other place to sit so we parked it in the middle of the hallway. |
Lots of instrumental events took place...it made me want to play piano again.
Lunchtime! Plenty of caffeine to keep us going because DUDE 6 o'clock is early. At least, I remember it's early...I haven't been up that early since camp.
 |
| Quick break from mac & cheese for a picture with my love, Hannah. |
After lunch we spent the day listening to all of our amazing singers...first up, our praise band!
