Faith Always Must Leap

Tonight we learned about how to live by faith and the subject of tonight's Olympic "Fit Bit" was the Luz Long and Jesse Owens story of friendship.  The kids are doing a great job acting out the fit bits as I tell the stories :)  Tonight, the little boy who got picked to play the role of Jesse Owens jumped on the grassy stage and yelled, "I'M ON TV!" :)

I love this quote from Jesse Owens...." It took a lot of courage for him (Luz Long) to befriend me in front of Hitler....you can melt down all the medals and cups I have and they wouldn't be a plating on the 24-karat friendship I felt for Luz at that moment." 


This is our blanket full of awesomeness :)  Really like all these smiles!


In line for the water games....What?! We have to carry water on our heads?!!  That really wasn't an issue in this heat :)
