Skyping with the Michigan Youth Group

This past Wednesday, our youth group here in Texas didn’t meet due to Spring Break. Our youth group in Michigan still met since their Spring Break is later (I guess that’s because spring arrives a little sooner down here. J) We had been trying to do a Skype video call with them ever since we moved down here, but it didn’t work out for different reasons.

 

We finally found that this past Wednesday would work for all of us! So our family packed up the iPad and trekked over to McDonald’s (living out in the boonies means that our internet is too slow to Skype well.) Unfortunately since our town is so small, the McDonald’s is also quite small. There was really no quiet corner for us. So we ended up doing most of the call outside despite traffic noises and children playing on the outdoor playground.

 

It was so good to “see” all our youth group friends from up north again! We visited with them for an hour and a half! We got to tell them all about Texas, and they filled us in on all of the goings-on up north. We miss them all a lot and look forward to seeing them this summer when we go up to visit!
