Tool and Book Bash


The men at Morning Star had a great time "storming" gifts on our most recent groomsmen to be. Both Joel and Matt walked away with some awesome "loot". Now we know where to get some great tools for our "honey-do" projects!

It was a great night for a cookout although a little cool. We enjoyed playing some basketball as well as a hammer, screwgun, and handsaw relay race. Ask one of the men for details.

Thanks to all who came and brought great gifts for these guys. Both Joel and Matt asked me to tell all the men how overwhelmed they are with gratitude for their generosity.

I have included a few pictures. Congratulations Joel and Matt!
