Valentine's Day Dinner







Yesterday, me and Amy and a couple of the girls from the Perth church put on a Valentine's Dinner for the all the singles at both churches. We had it at Amy's house and it was a huge success. There were about 20 of us all together and we shared a meal and watched a movie(Remember the Titans) on Amy's lawn afterwards. The weather has been so warm here, so last night was a perfect evening to spend outdoors. The boys even brought us some flowers, which was thoughtful. Me and Amy explored all the different ways in which we could incorporate our roses into different photos. We are easily entertained.

Today will be a work day, lots of things to prepare for this week. I hope to go and eat lunch at St. Steven's on Friday, which is a high school in Perth. Several of the youth go there, and hopefully I can meet some of their friends and spend time getting to know them. Tonight, me and Cath are having our high school girls group, which we will spend the evening playing sport on the beach or something. I forget how crazy 14-year-old girls can be, but they keep us on our toes!
