I don’t know if any of you have noticed, but the Team Ndubs… err Team USA schedule has been kinda light lately. Well all that changed this week. We had plenty to do. After an amazing event with some of my friends from Nashville we were off to Kirksville, MO.

Look at all my friends. My middle school dreams of popularity are finally coming true

From there we headed to Columbia, and then from there it was off to St. Louis where we had one of the coolest experiences of our tour. We were able to attend The Rescue in conjunction with Invisible Children. If you don’t know about Invisible Children, you absolutely have to check it out! www.invisiblechildren.com Anyway, we basically met at a location and abducted ourselves to raise awareness about the children who are abducted to serve as soldiers in Uganda. We marched to the St. Louis Arch where we waited for a political figure or a celebrity to come rescue us. We were there for a while. Like almost 24 hours. But I think we had the world’s most compact outdoor slumber party while we waited for someone to come rescue us.

The beginnings of the slumber party

Check out the awesome pillowtop mattresses they brought in for us. They were made of brick.

I won’t lie though. We were a little confused. I mean, we just kind of assumed we could be the rescuers. We’re celebrities, right? We have videos on youtube! Like 9 of them! With literally tens upon tens of hits. Well, despite our obvious celebrity status, we didn’t quite count. (apparently they were looking for an “A-list” celebrity… we fall somewhere between the x-z range of celebrity status). Eventually we got rescued just in time to get to one of our most fun events yet at New Life Church. Check out the sweet shoes designed by the lead singer of one of the bands that played!

Anyway, in keeping up with our original name, Team Ndubs, we are now headed from Missouri to Fresno, California. It’s gonna be a long drive, but I’m sure with the three of us behind the wheel of our Vagavan we might make it. We’ll see ya soon!
