Memories Made

 Right after church our family left with the Morgan family for a couple days of crossing off the last of our summer list of fun.
First on the agenda was a concert--KB, Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham. This was a dream line up for Aliza and Josiah (Siah) Morgan especially.


When KB came out, they could not even contain their excitement. We were up at the very top of the stadium with next to no room for movement, but those 5 kids, in the row in front of us adults and Isaiah, did not stop moving the entire concert.


How they kept up that level of energy from 7:30-8 and 9-11pm, I cannot explain! I thoroughly enjoyed the concert too. It was one of those concerts that you can sing every song. At times the crowd was singing over Brandon Lake and Phil Wickham. It was just really, really fun to worship GOD in such a crowd!

Isaiah was a great sport, but he would have much rather been with his cousin Ezra! Isaiah reminded us that we were really in the nosebleed seats when he got a nose bleed mid concert. That startled me. Thankfully it wasn't too serious and didn't last long.



We got back to our hotel at 12:30am and we were wiped and still wound up. The Heslop room stayed dark long into the next morning. The Morgan family was starting to wonder if we were ever going to emerge! It didn't matter because that day was strictly for relaxing and visiting-- getting to catch up on a couple months of conversation that we've missed. Isaiah was thrilled for two sessions of swimming in the pool. We had a late lunch at a PA Dutch smorgasbord. We had some family time. And a movie that night.

I don't get many pictures of Anna and Tabitha! I love this one though!

Our second main event was watching Moses at Sight and Sound. Aliza LOVED it as much as I thought she would. Anna loved it even MORE than I thought she would.



The show was amazing as usual. Isaiah even sat still through the whole thing. And Jeremy took one picture that he was not supposed to take. The scene here is God speaking to Moses from the burning bush.
