The Plagues-yikes!

 

The guy who told the story of the ten plagues of Egypt asked me to do some posters for him to show while he taught the kids at VBS last week. They came out pretty cute I thought. I'm missing one here, can't remember which one right now! Oh yes, darkness! It was just a black poster board with white eyes showing thru!
  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Awww, shucks!

We've been blessed with some wonderful produce from several friends' gardens this summer. Thankfully I had a good group to help with this load of corn we were given!! 

 

 

 

Playing Catch Up!

I finally uploaded the pictures from my camera so I will try to put up a few posts to catch up on the latest summer fun!

These were taken during the July 4th parade in East Prairie. I walked along side the float giving out candy and flyers inviting kids to our VBS and Paul rode in the parade so I don't have many photos of the actual parade. It was fun but way too hot! This parade is the biggest one of the three that EP does every year.
 

 

 

 

 

We're going to Disney World!

We had a trip scheduled to Disney with my dad next week. It was going to be just us and him and we were so thrilled about it. Well even though he can't make it he still wants us to go. So, we're off to see the mouse as my dad says! I'm probably more excited than anyone in the family as I have been doing all the research on line and that really gets you in the spirit of things. I can't wait to see the kids' reaction as they experience everything Walt Disney World has to offer!! My dad is so generous to treat us to a trip like this. It would only have been better with him along...
 

Busy with VBS

We're having Bible school this week so it's a busy one. It starts at 6 and we feed the kids dinner. The kitchen crew has it down to a science with all the meals brown bagged so it's easy to pass them out. They've had burgers, dogs and sandwiches so far. Tonight they get nachos and tomorrow it's corn dogs. They feed us volunteers too which has made this a great no-cook week for me! All week we're working on a kids' musical which will be performed Sunday night. I'm helping with that each night which is a change from my past years in the craft room. We had 71 kids Tuesday night so it's lots of activity!! I only have this one little photo to post of Michael playing Joseph during the story time Monday night. I'll try to post more soon!

Daddy Update

I am happy and thankful to report that my daddy is doing much much better and is expected to make a full recovery. He will be in the hospital another week but is hoping to be strong enough to make his already scheduled trip to the US at the end of the month rather than on the 13th as was planned. Thank you for your prayers and we give God all the glory for this miracle~! 

Heat Wave

You have got to be kidding me...
