OFF TO THE RACES!

Today is our official "Beginning Of The Year" start for CCC's ministry to Cypress Springs Elementary School. Tomorrow is the first day for the students and the teachers will be in their schools after a week of workshops today making their final last minute preparations.

Our church is preparing lunch for the staff of 65 today. Grilled burgers-YUMMY! We are hoping this will make these really important people know how much we appreciate their service to the children of our community.

The theme for the year as I wrote before is something like "Enpowering"--not exactly a theme a child can grasp---but my adaptation "Power Up"--they will get that!

The school colors are blue & white--so that is what we played off of to decorate-

Friend, Philip, is my perfect accomplice when it comes to "Cute". I came up with the light bulb on dowels and then asked him is there a way to use wire in the centerpieces. He immediately said, "Sure" and came up with the Wire Flowers, wire curly cues, and plugs on a dowel. GENIUS! We had a GREAT time putting these together for the tables. BC says "A little cute goes a LONG way" I say---YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH CUTE!
