Wordless Wednesday: We Got Forked
I know this is Wordless Wednesday, but you’re probably wondering what in the world is going on.
As some of you know, my husband has been in youth ministry for a while. He told the youth that they shouldn’t toilet paper people’s houses because it’s a mess to clean up, especially if it rains. He told them if they wanted to play a prank, then they could fork the yard instead. The forks are easy to clean up and it helps to aerate the yard.
My husband resigned from the church a few months ago and as I mentioned, we’re moving to another area soon. The youth heard about us moving, and wanted to give us a little visit. My husband was pleased that they followed his advice and were respectful.
My kids had fun cleaning up the mess too.

Better than political signs all over the place. Huh, Robyn?

That makes for a funny picture, and I can well believe the cleanup was easier than it would have been for toilet paper. Creative idea of your husband’s. :)

MEMORIES!!!!! My husband and I served as youth ministers for close to 11 years. We too have been forked, as well as TP’ed, NUMEROUS times. One time we were “tipped off” by a parent that the students were planning an attack. So, my husband called in the troops! He, our adult sponsors, and our then 5 year old son waited for the “LITTLE BLESSINGS” on our roof. When they arrived, WE ATTACKED! With PAINTBALL GUNS!!!!!!! It was GREAT!

We actually received a text message at 4:30 am telling us to come outside for a reunion. I waited up and kept looking out the window, but never saw anything. I guess they came after I went back to bed. The painball idea sounds great. Airsoft would work well too.
