Water Day, Bible Verses, and Lights Out!

Last Saturday we had Water Day for our bus kids before they went back to school. Jeremy, a teen from church that felt God calling him to preach on the mission trip to Puerto Rico, preached to the bus kids. He did an excellent job.

The boys decided that Todd needed to get wet. He wasn't to thrilled about it.

Sorry Todd! It was funny though!

Naomi loved the slide! She couldn't get enough of it.
Mrs. Pam and one of our bus kids Kayla.
Fun but not as fun as the big slide.

Jophie in the mud from the water slide. He didn't like the mud in his toes.

Last Sunday Naomi's Sunday School class said their verses that they have learned all year. I don't know how many they did but I think it was 12. I wish I could put the video up but it just won't work!
They did so good! I was so proud of my little girl! She was one of the only ones actually saying the verses.
Last week we had a bad storm that knocked the power out for a few hours. We still had our computers to play with and the girls enjoyed using the candles and flashlights. They ended up sleeping on the couch.

Girls are so fun!

Wow! Are those horns? Where's the halo?? Cheyenne and the girls were playing hair salon the other day and Abigail came out like the pics above and Naomi is getting makeup on.
The next day she got into my play makeup and Cheyenne found her looking like this. Boy, do I need to show her some things!
Abigail at church wanted her picture taken. I didn't let her play with this germ-x!
My girls are so funny!

VBS 911 Jesus to the rescue!

Last week we had our VBS, 911 Jesus to the rescue. We always start with pledges and singing. Abigail was in a class for the first time this year. Her teacher told me that she was really praying that Abigail wouldn't give her a hard time and she was an angel! She never cried or gave her any trouble. It was like Abigail had changed overnight.

These characters were very busy!

Mary-Grace was having a great time singing If your happy and you know it!

Since it was a rescue theme we had the fire truck come two night. Abigail's class was checking it out.
This is the cutest! Little Anna was eating cupcake Wednesday night and was trying to get the frosting off her lips here. She got really mad when Mrs. Marla started washing her off and brushing the crumbs off the seat. She was trying to get the little crumbs to eat! She ate the whole cupcake!

Mary-Grace thought it was yummy too.
I couldn't get Abigail singing up close here because if she saw me, she would have cried.
I forgot to take a picture of the money war but each year we have buckets that the kids bring in their money, preferably pennies because you can put more money in, for the weight. We compete to see who has the heaviest money. The girls have won for the last several years but this year the boys won. They almost doubles the girls weight.
Mary-Grace enjoying singing again.
Naomi was inside the fire truck trying to get out and her little "boyfriend" Camron came over and said he would catch her. It was so sweet.

We had a candy canon that they shot out candy during snack time every night. The kids scrambled for the candy.
Naomi in her class waiting to do her craft.
The kids studied about Queen Esther one night so they all had crowns.
Abigail checking out what was going on.
