TCTC

What’s TCTC you ask? Why, it’s the Tennessee Christian Teen Convention! There were speakers, bands, a poet, and an illusionist there! And pretty much our whole youth group, including Josh and I, went to it. This year's theme was "Illuminate Your World." The speaker was really good! He challenged all of us.

My mom, my friend April, and I shared a room. My mom’s friend, Tammy B, and some younger girls named Kacey (Tammy’s daughter), Ashlynn, and Logan were in the room next to us. There was a door connecting our rooms, so we hung out with them at night.

We discovered the beds were very bouncy. (This is Kacey, and that’s Ashlynn in the back)

Oh yes. You know who that is. ;)

Here’s pictures from the bands.

Franchesca Battastelli (however the heck you spell her name)

And then…

Wahoo!

Daniel Brio!! (Best picture of the night!)

Another great picture!

Funny story of the night: Jason (lead singer) was telling a story about how he messed up his foot while chasing his dog, and Daniel (bass) interrupted to say something.

Jason: “Dude, I’m trying to tell a story here.”

Daniel saunters up to the mic. “Proceed.”

Okay, I know it’s not that funny in writing. But it was funny when he said it ;)

After the story was over, Daniel says: “Does anyone have an extra foot they can lend Jason?” And of course all the girls start screaming.

Saturday night we went to see the illusionist, BJ Harris. I wish Joel was there!

Here’s People Pictures from the weekend :).

I love this kid :). (I’m babysitting her and her two younger brothers tonight! :D)

Apparently it’s our church’s tradition to go to the big Bass Pro Shop on the way back from TCTC.

I didn’t realize until after I took this that it looks like the bear’s about to eat Kassi :D.

GASP! He’s an angel…fisher.

Ah, there we go.

Megan’s moose friend.

Ahh…it was a fun weekend. ;)
