Missionary Moms Having Fun

What's the saying about "All work and no play"? On the last weekend in February most of the community of the International Christian School of Budapest (our son Josh's school), which is largely missionary, puts aside their work to have fun at the annual basketball tournament. It is a great time of relaxing, watching basketball, eating junk food, and being together. We are grateful for all the work that goes into making it happen.

This year I helped organize some of the entertainment - a group of moms doing a routine with mops in a spoof of the drill team or flag corps. To see the routine click on the this link- www.youtube.com:80/watch?v=CbFqAYuQSVk Or you can search You Tube for ICSB Mopping Moms. Thanks to our friend and colleague, Glen Adkins, for immortalizing us on the web!

It was also a time of mixed emotions for our family. This was Josh's last basketball game and Ralph's last time to coach the team. There were nine seniors on the varsity team! It was a tear fest for the moms when the last buzzer rang. Now we're marching on to graduation.
