conversations from the couch

the last day to to take advantage of the advanced registration discount! Days like this are fun–I’m a HUGE procrastinator–always running late, enjoying the thrill of the “just under the wire” living. My children will be scarred for life I’m sure–I’m the mom who motors up the hill to school as the bell is ringing, drops the kids off with a rolling stop, and yells “RUN FASTER” as they trot away from the car.

Anyway, the excitement in the office is always a blast on deadline day. We log into the registration system and keep the tab open so everytime someone registers, we see it. We hoot, holler and cheer…for every single registration, and the big groups too. (hello Vineyard Church Northwest with your group of 11 that just registered) During the early bird registration deadline back in October, Doug was in the office for some program meetings.  He got a kick out of the hoopla–and threw in some cheers of his own.

so a big wave and a little “happy dance” from all of us…to those responsible plan-ahead people who registered back in April, to those who will inevitably forget to register today, and smack your forehead later this week…we’re looking forward to seeing you all soon!
