Hotel Life: Day 15 - Final Goodbyes

On our last evening in Peoria, we had plans to go to an "I Am They" concert at a local church. Our (xPPx) friend, Marshall, is our church worship leader and made plans for our worship team to attend the event together.  Tickets were to be purchased at the door, then we found out they'd started selling them online and it was now sold out.  So...  we changed plans and decided to go hang out at the church instead.  Which meant time to spend with friends...

We hung out on the church lawn.

Marshall brought pizzas.
The rest of us brought chips and cookies.

Then played.


Jess pitched to Owen, he might have hit one. :)

Emma played with Owen and Knox on the slide.


Owen went down the slide a bunch of times.

I took a video of him... then Knox came down after him and this video made laugh so hard!


Asia and Owen played catch while sitting down. Ha.

Some of the bigger kids played card games.

Once it started to get dark, the glow-in-the-dark capture the flag got set up.

All the kids and most of the Dads joined in.

They let the littles join in, though they mostly just rearranged the jail.

Before we left that night, this group of friends prayed with us and for our move.  Then there were rounds of tearful hugs.   oh.my.heart.  Goodbyes are hard.  The change of plans was a blessing of extra time with friends.
