At The Hounsomes! (Gabriel Edition)

Hello all, We are now at the Hounsome household and are having a blast. I had their 5th born of 14 kids Gabriel do a write up for me since I didn't have time today. I plan to do a full update soon. But until then, read Gabe Hounsome's perspective

Hi,

Gabriel Hounsome here. I'm writing this on behalf of Josiah Jost for his blog.

On Saturday the Josts arrived at our place (The Hounsomes), we had a blast!!! After all the greetings, we played "Ultimate Frisbee" Joel ran into the clothes line trying to catch the Frisbee and snapped it, he didn't get hurt... At least that is what he says.

For supper we had two huge sliced up pork’s that were and put on buns, and then we could dress them up. (I'm not as good at describing food as Josiah is )

But the food was really good. After supper we talked a lot!!!

The following day Shayne, Joel and I (Gabriel that is) went to the Home show as "Ecostreet Countertops" representatives. Joel did some filming for a promotional video he is making for us. Someone walked up to him and saw his nice camera and asked "Are you from cable TV?" HAHAHA.

When we got back from the Show we went to the concert hall to setup, that was a blast in itself. We then had fellowship; it was on the first 11 verses of John 8. After fellowship we did a bit of sports "500 Up" with a Frisbee. I didn't participate very much. I caught it once, mind you. Joel scraped up his hand a bit, but again he is alright.

At 7:00 PM the concert started, The singing was amazing, it was such a blessing hearing them sing. All there songs were perfect, I don't mean to brag but we get to hear them sing 3 more times. All the Josts are really happy to have people help people setup and take down the sound equipment.

When we got home we turned on the Flames game, unfortunately the Flames lost thus being kicked out of the playoffs, and we then again talked late into the night…. Only to 1:30AM.

Today (for it is today that I’m writing this) we played a game of “Soccer” then a game of “Ultimate”, in soccer it was Jonathan and Sharla, Emily, Joshua, Zachary, and I (still me) against everyone else which numbered 9, thus being 9 against 6. We won the “Soccer” game it was a really good game, and then they won the game of “Ultimate” An now they are gone out for a bit and will be back soon, I can’t wait till they are back!!!

Sincerely,

Gabriel Josiah David Hounsome

P.S. It is quite a challenge using this laptop, I hardly ever use one.

P.P.S. If you want, post a comment.

Good job Gabe. Makes us wish we were there. Sounds like a blast at your house.

I have a question. How can Zach be there when I recently saw his name in the Leth. paper as coming in second in his age group in the 10 mi. road race here?

Josiah: It is really nice that you have this blog.

To GPA Frantz:
That is weird, cause Zack never runs 10 mile road races. He does 5KM and he has been here since September of last year

To Luke:

To Josiah, because he asked me to:

Hello,
Great writing makes great reading, thanks Josiah and Gabriel.
I like to follow the Jost family on their trip/adventure and I am glad they're doing fine.
Josiah, the way you write about all that food makes me hungry every time ;)
I used my only Google account that I used for the 419scam, but this is Richard giving expression to his love for coffee and his French name, that is why I “moved” the “silent” H, --Tim Horton-- :)

Thanks for all the work, a safe trip and keep writing here please

Richard
