AFTER EXITING MY RUBBERMAID ROVER, I CLIMB UP AND TAKE A LOOK AROUND.

FROM ELWOOD’S PERCH HE DETERMINED
THAT HE HAD ARRIVED AT CROSSROADS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL. NOW HE JUST HAD TO FIND HIS HOSTS.

NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A WARM WELCOME.

IT DIDN’T TAKE ELWOOD LONG TO FIND HIS HOSTS “MRS.COURTNEY’S FIRST GRADE CLASS”. THEY WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY TO WELCOME ELWOOD TO CROSSROADS AND MORNING CHAPEL. AFTER CHAPEL THEY TOLD ELWOOD OF SOME OF THE ADVENTURES THEY HAD PLANNED FOR HIM INCLUDING MEETINGS, SPORTING EVENTS, BIBLE STUDIES, BIRTHDAY PARTIES, SLUMBER PARTIES, ROCK CLIMBING, ROLLERSKATING AND MORE.

MY FIRST DAY IN THE CLASS TAKES ME TO THE LIBRARY.

THIS WAS “BOOK WEEK’ AT SCHOOL AND ALL THE KIDS VOTED ON A BOOK THAT ELWOOD WOULD LIKE TO READ. THE FAVORITE CHOICE WAS “MR WIGGLES”, SO ELWOOD HEADED TO MRS. REEVE’S LIBRARY TO CHECK IT OUT.

ELWOOD, WITH TYLER HOECHLIN (MARTIN) AND STEVEN COLLINS (REVEREND CAMDEN), ON THE SET.

ELWOOD GOT TO TAKE HIS FIRST FIELD TRIP TO WARNER BROTHER’S STUDIOS AND THE TV SET OF “7TH HEAVEN”. HE WAS THE WEEK LONG GUEST OF TYLER HOECHLIN, A FORMER STUDENT OFF CROSSROADS SCHOOL. BY THE END OF THE SHOOTING ELWOOD WAS PRETTY SURE HE WAS READY TO BE AN ACTOR TOO.
