What happens when the Hillbillies hit Canada?
They wear sling-back shoes with no socks in the 30cm of snow.
They don't know how to convert cm to inches so they just take a wild guess and tell their families several feet of snow--- several cold feet that is!
They blow the circuits of the bed and breakfast while trying to blow dry their southern hair.
They bring up the election at dinner only to realize they are in a different country.
They have not a clue what a soother is. Holly thought it was a heating pad. Silly girl. I thought it was a cough drop. Silly girl number two. It is in fact a baby pacifier. We call those things passies. They just laugh at us.
They open up their Bible to get ready for their message only to find a latex glove marking a certain spot. Thinking back over this past week, one seriously searches her brain trying to figure out where said glove could have possibly come from. And then one with 5 children remembers and gags! Ashley dissected a cow eyeball this week in science and brought her glove home with her. How the thing ended up in my Bible and traveled all the way to Canada is beyond me.
Like I said--- hillbillies.
To my sweet new Canadian friends from Calvary Baptist- Yous are wonderful. We had a time of it, eh? I loved y'alls accent too.
Now to all my bloggy friends who know about the big contest this weekend that will be announced tomorrow--- I need your help. While we have been country bumpkining our way around Canada, Holly and I have been feverishly reading all of your entries for the She Speaks Scholarship. Oh my stars. How are we ever going to pick???
If I win the lottery today, I will pay for you all. But since I don't own a lottery ticket, the chances of me winning might be slim to none. Therefore, I have to just pick one. Sigh, sigh, and sigh one more time.
So, if you have a spare moment, or 2, or 45 will you read through some of the linked posts today and send me an e-mail with a few of your favorites?
(Lysa1@Proverbs31.org)
I'll then collect all of everyone's favorites, combine them with my panel's favorites, toss their numbers in a baggie and PRAY! PRAY! PRAY!
Seriously---All of you are so deserving. I'm praying that God makes a way for everyone to come even if I can only be a part of one of those stories.
On a lighter note---Maybe I should do a follow up contest with more winners next week. I could give away things like soothers and used latex gloves.
Happy Sunday!
