6:00 wake-up call on a WEEKEND!

This weekend was fantastic! On Friday we had to wake up very early so that we could get to our 'destination' on time! I had woke up at 5:52 A.M. but fell back asleep. It was about five minutes later when my Mom was waking me back up. My friend Autumn from Loving the seasons of Autumn and her family came and I got to ride with her in their car.

Upon our arrival, we opened the car door and it was pretty chilly outside! So we hurried to the building.
Y' know, why do they call it a building when it's already built?

Anyway, we got inside and we signed in for the home-school kids conference and when we were situated in our Team we sang songs, watched a skit and then we headed to the other side of the room for an obstacle course. Autumn and I were so tired (as were our siblings) that we took turns leaning on each other while we waiting in line!

After that I was introduced by another friend to a cute little six-year-old. She was so sweet, liked to talk, made sure I was standing, or sitting, next to her at all times, and loved to bounce up and down and give me high-fives as high as she could.

She was in the same Team as me, Autumn and our siblings, so she and I colored in pictures and made crafts together. I loved that she would sit next to me when we watched the skit and sang songs.
I told Autumn that "She seemed to like me a lot." She's a sweet girl.


We played a game called Captain On Deck (I love that game) and my little 6 year old friend wouldn't leave me at all! When the man called out "Three men in a boat" she was almost always somewhere in my 'boat'. The same was with the order "Man Overboard".

There were a few things in the kids conference that I didn't like but otherwise, it was worth the early wake-up!
