My husband, the goofball...

We have a new youth pastor at our church, and it did not take him long at all to figure out that Steve was the guy to call if he needed someone to be silly or goofy. The Senior High youth group was having a human scavenger hunt at Rivertown Crossings Mall a few weeks ago, so Pastor Matt was looking for people to dress up in disguises and walk around the mall. Steve's own youth group had done this years ago, so he had lots of ideas to draw on. This is what he ended up doing:

He borrowed a wheelchair from church, got a bunch of gauze from his mom and wrapped himself up, and for the final touch - he added his C-pap on top of that! (He said most people don't know what a C-pap actually is.... it's the machine that people with sleep apnea wear when they are sleeping.)

Me being the wet blanket that I usually am... my first thought was... How likely is it that some guy in a wheelchair covered in gauze and wearing a C-pap would actually be dropped off at the food court in a huge mall to read a book by himself... but whatever! ; )

The youth had a great time, and just as Steve hoped, they were extremely hesitant to approach him for fear that he wasn't actually part of the group. He could hear kids whispering in the distance.... "You go ask him... No, YOU go ask him". But in the end, all the groups got him!

The best part is when another guy from our church who was wearing a Nascar outfit and a mullet wig was pushing Steve to the food court. They took the elevator, of course... and while they were waiting, another guy says "You guys must be part of an experiment or something". LOL!

Have a great weekend!
