Never Too Old

 I will never be too old to get my face painted. Yes, that will be me when I am 80 years old with my face painted like a cat.  I'm in a wheelchair...I can do these things.
In other butterfly related news. My caterpillars are huge and eating things they shouldn't be. I should be seeing chrysalises any day now.

Caterpillar Mail

 
 Several weeks ago mom bought me a butterfly habitat. Isn't she the greatest!  Well, it gave a website (www.ribbitsgalore.com) where you could order live caterpillars. I then spent seven dollars to have painted lady caterpillars shipped to me from across the country. 
 They were delayed due to the extreme heat parts of our country are experiencing. But they arrived today! The mailman was kind enough to bring them right to the door.
There are four of them and they have to stay in their little plastic cup for two weeks before I can move them to their lovely new home.

Bound for the Kingdom

We went to kingdom bound again this year. Sometimes its sad to be a grown-up with grown-up friend that have to work ...all the time. I am blessed to have a wonderful job that alows me to work whenever I want to or whenever I don't what to. So considering our work schedules our little entourage consisted of Samantha and I with Spencer joining us in the evenings.The music, of course, was great. It always is. Some of the highlights were:
                                 
 Switchfoot- Good show, I liked their lighting.

 Nick Vujicic- Amazing Speaker! If you haven't heard him, you need too!


TobyMac- I dont really like his music but his show was entertaining.


Family Force Five- You could always hear the tambourine...always.


Tenth Avenue North- Always fantastic!


For King and Counrty- They didn't have a base player. But you could hear the base. Weird.


And more. Much, much more. Hopefully next year more of us can make it.
