More Student Leaders!

Tonight I had the last bunch of Community Life student leaders over for dinner.  Tonight it was the Intercultural Program Leaders that joined me for dinner.  We had chili for supper and then some chocolate crunch brownies that I made with my newly discovered marshmallow cream!  It was a delicious and fun meal!

Covenant Players

Sunday we had special guests at church.  Covenant Players is a travelling drama group.  Their dramas were the bulk of our message this week - with songs and scripture included between the skits.  They did an excellent job and provided a thought provoking service.  Afterwards we had a chili supper that Betsy & I organized.  It was a fun evening.

Girl's night out!

Saturday night I went out with Kim and Ieva.  We had a "Girl's Night" - we got our nails done, ate dinner out, and shopped.  It was a lot of fun!

Ieva got flowers painted on two of her nails on each hand.

Wax Figure Show

I went to the mall on Saturday and happened upon a Wax Figure Show.  There were about 30 wax figures total displayed in one hallway of the mall.  It was kind of random and kind of cool.

More dinner guests!

Tonight Amanda and her team of RAs came over for dinner. It was a fun evening!  We had one of Amanda's favorite desserts with our meal, which made Amanda (and the rest of us) quite happy!  We had Gooey Butter Cake (GBC) - a staple from my set of sure fire hits with students at Goshen College back in the day...somethings work no matter where you in the world.  :)

Enns Hall RAs

Alex and her RAs came over last night for dinner.  We had potato enchilada and lemon cheesecakes.  Both were quite tasty!  We had a great time chatting and getting to know one another better.

Cinnamon Rolls & cards

After Serve Day, a group of us went over to Maxine & Vernon's place for cinnamon rolls and cards.  It was a large and quite eclectic group, but we had a blast!

After raining all during Serve Day, the sun came out and gave us this beautiful view from Maxine & Vernon's kitchen window.  Isn't the tree lovely?

LOTS of cinnamon rolls!

Jennifer & Marlene are getting some of the sweet goodness.
