UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY (UK)
On October 1st my teammates and I made our way over to Lexington to visit the University of Kentucky. The screening was good, and we went out to ice cream with a group of the Invisible Children club members after the screening. We hung out at Laurens house for a while, and went to sleep. It was so nice to be able to sleep in a bit that morning, we were lucky enough to have that day off from screenings so we could catch up on other work. I got so many phone calls made this day, AND I printed out 100 pictures from my trip to Uganda so we could put them in a photo album to share with people who want to know more about Uganda. Brilliant idea, because everyone always wants to see pictures!!! My teammate Adam's parents came into town that night, and they treated the team to pizza. YUM! Pizza is my favorite food in case you did not know that already!!

Saturday, we went to the Farmer's Market to raise awareness about Invisible Children and the screening at First Alliance church that night. We had stayed up until 2:30 Am the night before, and woke up around 7:00 AM to get ready to go. It was so much fun! It was so cold that morning that I had two sweaters on, a scarf wrapped around my head, jeans and gloves...and I was till cold! We met a lot of people who were interested, and donated change to our change for chance jar. Josh bought me lunch that day, a pulled pork sandwich, which was delicious. They had this wonderful BBQ sauce that I put on it, delic!
Me with my new haircut!
My other teammate Brennon is in a wedding in just a few weeks, so he had to get measured for a tux. Faith and I dropped him off and went to the dollar store to wait for him. While we were there I found these AMAZING Halloween decorations for out van! Now, we have the inside of our van all decorated for Halloween, and it only cost us $1.00! Excellent! On our way to the church, we hit major traffic. Apparently UK is a big deal, especially UK football. I had only seen this in movies, and I really didn't believe that this kind of a college town existed, but it does! It took us an hour to move two miles becuase the traffic was out of control (much like their fans). People came all the way from Alabama to watch this game...insane! You could tell who was on what team, because they were either wearing all red, or all blue. Crazy people!
