Catch-up Conversations

Most of you know that we are in the middle of a building project at our church. The construction work is being voluntarily completed by a group of folks called Campers on Mission. In short, they are retired people that live on the church campus in their camper trailer while they help build the church. In return, the church cooks meals and provides a few other things for them while they are there. Our boys absolutely love our new "neighbors," and they especially love eating lunch with them. The conversations below all revolve around church and the campers.

#1
While waiting on lunch to get ready, one of the campers allowed BA to hammer a nail in the wall. I told him to be very careful, to which he replied, "I'll be careful Mom. Just don't worry about it."

#2
While eating lunch, BA told a camper's wife, "That ketchup matches your lips."

#3
One day while getting ready to go to lunch at church, BA asked, "Mom, can I say the prayer at lunch today?" A few moments later he said, "Mom, do you know that whoever says the prayer at lunch gets to go through the line first?" (He did say the prayer that day, and yes, he did get to go first in line!)

#4
At lunch to one of the campers BA said, "You know Pepsi isn't good for you. You shouldn't be drinking it." Of course they chuckled and said, "Yes, it's not good for me, but it sure tastes good."
