Progressive Dinner!

For the uninformed, a "progressive dinner" is one during which you travel from place to place, having a single portion of the meal at each stop. It's always a blast and this year was the best one yet! We had a huge turnout and couldn't have done it without the gracious help of Vanessa Willie and Cheryl Katrenick to help us drive and get everyone to the destinations! We started out at the Moser home with some of the most amazing breads, spreads, and appetizers! After some games and a little football watching, we moved the herd to the Bentley's home for some delicious soups and some frogwatching, all followed by some praise and worship, led by Parker, Nick, and Livvy! That was awesome! Along the way we gave Shelby a call and took a card to her house to let her know we were thinking about her after her shoulder surgery. Then it was off to the Crawford estate for a romantic candlelit dinner for 30 or so and some incredible lasagna!! Tom had a fire going for us which felt amazing in the chilly air, and we stood around it and gave some thanks and praise to God for all He's done (hope the neighborhood association didn't mind, even though it was 10:00 p.m.!) ! And finally, having sneakily and covertly led all of you to believe that it was OVER at that point, we rounded everyone up and headed to the Teen House for one last moment of prayer, only to have dessert and some surprise birthday cupcakes waiting for Parker! These were the biggest cupcakes ever seen by mankind!! The Teen group salutes you Mosers, Bentleys, Crawfords, and Crystal for your generosity and hospitality!! We love you!
The Mosers were our first destination!!


Singing at the Bentley's...Dude! They already have their Christmas tree up!!


No matter how wide he opened up, P-Diddy was not able to get one of those cupcakes down in a single bite. Props on the attempt, though.
