We are at Ottawa University Track on our “Vision Quest”
Here’s a kid who wore paint clothes.. and one that didn’t..
OOH.. nice dead mouse.. but that’s what happens when you clean out a trash container..

We broke off into groups and did a photography scavenger hunt. Instead of taking the item, we
took photos of stuff. Here are the kids imitating a “Dip” sign.
We call this Blue Beard.
Yes.. they are dancing..
Praying Manis.. I found on Ottawa University’s wall. This was HUGE.. about 6″ long.
Photographers.. taking photos of each other.. cool? or not cool?
I think this is such a cool photo. Not only are the sunglasses and hat cool..
but the 2 sets hands are pretty cool too.

I believe he is in deep thought.. or he’s Dr. Evil from Austin Powers.
Who can make their lips go this far apart?
They were so proud of themselves because they figured out this ottoman has a flip-out table.
Doing a little yoga while we see if a rich man.. can still hold onto his stuff…
Jumping…
Enjoying a snack… what kind you ask? This kind..
How cute are these girls? Pretty darn cute if you ask me…
It was a fun.. weird day. Today was the Tamale Roll for tomorrow’s 1st annual Tamale Fundraiser for the Youth Mission Stay. I haven’t blogged about the Mission Stay.. (just wait until August 2nd- 7th) But here’s an overview.
Instead of going somewhere for a Mission Trip the Middle School and High School youth groups are going on a Mission Stay. We are “staying” here where we live, and serving our community for a week.
We met at a friends house to rolled the tamales. We made Chicken and Beef. Here’s what we did… in photos of course!
Here’s the shredded beef, with the masa and corn husks.
Here’s the shredded grilled chicken, masa and corn husks.
The girls are really serious about rolling their chicken tamales.
The beef rollers seem serious.. but they really were not.
Maybe it was the paper flowers in the middle…
Here’s the Beef.. all steamed and ready to go..
Chicken.. ready to do their job… feeding the tired, poor masses yearning to eat some tamales.
Rolling the Tamales.. makes the girls tired…
** For those of you wanting the recipe for some Tamales.. I will try to post it tomorrow in the “cooking” section.
