The Weekend Fun

Today, we went to the Oklahoma City Capitol and StateMuseum. At the capitol we learned about some of the history of Oklahoma as Audra Wofley, our TESOL instructor, gave us a quick tour. Later at the museum the VOICE students had fun exploring as they competed to finish a scavenger hunt of sorts. Those who finished first received snacks which we all enjoy when we get hungry late at night. The highlight of my day, however, was going to the park in the evening.

Earlier this week we had planned to go to the park. However, much to my disappointment, we ended up going shopping instead due to the big thunderstorm and muddy ground. Today, there also was a prediction of rain, but Wes told us that we were going to go and play regardless of the weather. By the time we got to the park it was nice and cool and we played capture the flag. In the middle of the game it started sprinkling, but not to long afterwards a bright spot appeared in the clouds right above the park. The dark clouds were still rolling by to the left and the right but the park stayed amazingly dry for the rest of our time there. We were so thankful for this little gift that God had sent our way. After our group game, everyone split up to play soccer, football, volleyball, play with the kids at the playground, or just sit around and talk. I had a delightful time breathing the fresh air outside, enjoying God’s creation, and most of all getting to know all the fun, cute, and crazy VOICE students.
