Hayden's band performs at Six Flags

Hayden is in a band now, with some friends from school.  He just started with them about a month ago, and yesterday was their first big performance -- at Six Flags amusement park in Dallas.  It was awesome!!

The band is called "To Coda" which is a musical term. I looked up the definition online and it said, "After a sense of momentum is created, a coda is required to look back on the main body, and allow listeners to "take it all in", and create a sense of balance."

There were 3500 people at Six Flags yesterday, and it was hot=hot=hot!!  They did three 30-minute sets, it was their first time to perform on stage and they did an amazing job!!  I posted a video in the right column >> see it there?

but if you cant' view the video, you can watch it online by clicking here:

You can visit their website at  http://tocoda.weebly.com/ 
On the website you can see their upcoming gigs-- they have several coming up in the next few weeks!!  We are really excited about the "Opening Bell" coffee house which is in a swanky part of downtown Dallas.  They will actually get paid for doing this show!  I am making up flyers for them to pass out to their friends at school -- we want to have a big crowd of fans at this one!!!

Hayden is new to the band, so he is not in the main photos -- but they did add him to the "Band Members' Bio" section.  They are going to do another photo shoot soon to show all 4 of them. 


There is a place on the website where you can see "Concert Performances" -- ie, all the songs they did at Six Flags yesterday.  We will be adding more videos to that section, as they do more shows. 

On the website you can also see the T-shirts, we are hoping to sell a bunch of these shirts to raise money for band equipment and marketing stuff, etc..  Let me know if you want one!!

Missions Trip to Kansas

Had such a great time travelling with the 5th through 7th graders last week, on our short missions trip to Wichita Kansas. Our Youth Pastor's parents live there, and he goes every year to help out with their church "Kids Week" which is an week long event, every evening, sortof like vacation bible school. There were 7 kids including Matthew.  They led the worship every night along with Mrs. Summer, our youth pastor's wife.  Here they are rehearsing the worship songs --- along with all the hand motions which I could not keep up with!!!

 and here they are in action!



This is Kennedy, the oldest boy, we gave him a special role because he is an AMAZING dancer.  We called him "K.I.Glow" and he did his dance every night with glow-in-the-dark clothes and gloves, and a blacklight.  It was quite awesome!!!  Pastor Josh had ordered a jar of "glow in the dark face cream" which was totally amazing. I was Kennedy's "wardrobe manager" every night -- taping up his pants and shirt with the special glow tape -- and he needed lots of help getting that gloopy Mask on every night!! Such a sweet kid!!

Pastor Josh's dad gave rides to the kids on his Honda motorcycle.  Don't worry Mom -- it was just around the church parking lot, that's why he doesn't have a helmet.

ZOOTIME
Josh took us on a couple of outings during our "free time", he is so cool.  We went to the Sedgwick County Zoo which is right by his parents' house.  It was the most beautiful zoo I have ever seen, nice and shady and many air conditioned pavillions -- much much nicer than the dallas zoo.  


Matthew and the Meerkat (see it, right above his shoulder?)

It was only 90 degrees, in the shade!
With the wild elephants!

In the Amazon Rainforest exhibit, totally cool!  See the Toucan on the branch behind the kids?


Matthew and ChooChoo (can't pronounce his real name so that's what everyone calls him). 
He is the sweetest child. I wish ChooChoo could teach my son how to SMILE IN A PHOTO omg











Snakes are so disgusting.  Even though God made them.  I used my zoom lens to get this photo from far away.
