Lots of people have asked me what my favorite part of tour was. It's impossible to answer! I loved the bus rides, the concerts themselves, the different churches, and staying in host homes every night.
Riding the bus was tons of fun! There was a social committee who planned out different games and activities, such as coloring contests and on-the-road Bingo to keep us occupied on longer trips.
It was a joy to perform the songs we have been practicing for so long, adding up to twelve total concerts. Each church was unique and wonderful. I also loved being able to do the concert in three different Christian schools. It was always fun to see the kids' happy faces when we pulled out percussion instruments like the triangle and "vibraslap".
As far as the host homes, it's fascinating to stay with a 10-person family one night and a elderly couple the next. These experiences provide a unique window into each family's life and it's always a blessing to be able to hear about ways that God has worked in their lives.
Things have settled back to normal since arriving at school on Sunday night. We started classes yesterday. Only a couple more months and I'll no longer be a freshman. What?! I can't believe how quickly this year has flown by so far! But I'm looking forward to seeing what God has in store for each day of the rest of 2013.
