Roofing!!!

So last week for young men's and young women's, we roofed Ben and Kris' house! (my neighbors). It was so much fun! It wasn't quite the same as Youth Conference, but it was pretty fun!!! We had a lot of people show up to help, well not a lot of youth, but a lot of adults! So it went by pretty quickly! Charlie, one of the older guys there, almost fell off the roof twice! Travis saved him both times! It was pretty scary! This roof was a lot more steeper than the last one I did. and it was a lot bigger. We had some people even rip their pants, I don't think you can do a roof without someone ripping a hole in their pants. Well at least every time I've done a roof someone's ripped their pants! It was pretty hilarious! So I had a lot of fun! I learned how to break a whole apple in half by just using your hands! It was pretty amazing! Weston taught me cause he did it and it looked pretty cool, so he showed me!! It took me a while on the first one, but after a while I got the hang of it and it was pretty COOL!!!! :) It's my trick I like to show people,cause I love their faces when I do it!! :) Well it was pretty fun doing it!!! It gave me something to do for the 2 days, cause I never have anything to do!!!! Pretty soon I will become pro at roofing, and then I can do all your guys' houses!!! :) If you guys trust me... :) Although I did get to control the nail gun or whatever it was. :) and I didn't even hurt/injure people! :) I also got to ride Ben's cool tractor thingy!!! I don't know what it is called but I was pretty fun!! I loved it! Some of the older people surprised me, at how hard they worked!!!

Good job on the roof! That must have been a cool experience. Looks like you're having fun and keeping out of trouble :) How's high school going?
