As many of you know, my church is in the process of building a new building in South Grand Prairie....and we changed our name from Turnpike to Crosspoint. I won't go into that subject because I'm one of the old geezers who is still bitter about it. :-) Anywho, a couple of weeks ago we had an outside church service and cookout close to the new property to advertise and welcome new people. I think it might have been the hottest day of the summer. I thought the morning wouldn't be bad since it started at 0930 but I was sweating the second I got there. It was really bad. At least two people actually passed out! Overall, it was a great day of fellowship and hopefully we got some new members from it!
Ethan helped load cokes for lunch while church was going on.
And so did Caleb.
Kristy and Amanda helped put all of the food out.
See that sweat? It was still morning!
Cooking burgers and hotdogs.
That is actually my pool that we donated to load with cokes and water.
Thirsty?
The church service was under the white tent. I decided to let the kids help with the drinks and food instead of me stressing and trying to hold them down during church while sweating to death.

The kids put on a little circus during church.
Caleb wouldn't let me put him down so I had to get on stage too...while dripping sweat.
Refueling on some diet coke.
Mondo and Jeffrey cooked burgers for hours. Thanks guys!
Lunch time.
There was also a petting zoo which I always love. Caleb was chasing all of the animals. He compared this turtle to Turtleman. There is no comparison. That turtle was huge! He kept knocking on his shell.
That baby cow was pretty cute. He followed me around and was licking my legs. I guess they were salty...or sweet with my lotion. I literally had to push him away from me. It was a little gross.
Ethan enjoyed the animals too. He really liked the guinea pigs because we had just watched "G-Force".
Did I mention we had snow cones? :-)
