Day 4 and we're all into the rhythm of Tour. With the help of our stellar chaperones, VIP is making its way through a busy week.
Today's highlights:
- We had clean laundry ready (and at our doors), courtesy of those amazing junior and senior girls. (really, they're the only ones who could keep their eyes open last night to get it done.) Rumor has it that Courtney is a laundry mastermind....
- Playing with the kids at Newberry Center and putting on a concert for them. The Newberry Kids also performed for us and (by all accounts) showed us up with their stellar dance moves. They did several sacred pieces and then closed with Michael Jackson's "Thriler."
- Deep dish Chicago pizza for lunch. (YUM!)
- In the evening, the high schoolers served homeless individuals at Dignity Diner, and then the middle schoolrs joined us for a concert.
- Dinner at Portillo's and lots of celebrating of Elizabeth's birthday.
We have a busy day tomorrow and we're praying that Maegan and Dylan get their voices back. We need 'em singing but they've both been hit with a minor cold. (Nothing major, Moms and Dads!) With 3 concerts on our schedule tomorrow, we need to be at the top of our game. And in the spirit of preparation, it's off to bed for me.
We're trying to post pictures but our Flick account is error-filled. Ugh. We'll aim for an AM solution and sorry for the delay!
