Busy Week!

So the blog has been empty a lot lately. I finally found a temporary fix to the picture problem. We have just been really busy this week! We had VBS at the church where Jesstine's preschool is located. I agreed to help this week and there was free childcare for Emmitt since I was helping. I helped in Jesstine's class. Here are some pictures from the week. I didn't get any of Emmitt, but he had a good time...after the first day that is!

Jesstine's group was the blue 5s. Ironically the main leader (closest to me) was a part of a group that comes to Westlink Church of Christ (where we attend) for a Wednesday night Bible study. She is also the sister-in-law of a guy that Stephen grew up with! Small world!

Top Left clockwise: Storytime (featuring Kara, our babysitter); Playing during recreation time with "partner" as these two started calling each other by the last day; Practicing their songs for the end of the week. Ironically she stood right by her third cousin (my first cousin's son); Lastly, craft time making a banner flag that says "Jesus Loves Jesstine."

Recreation time was always one of her favorites. The last picture she is in the background but this little guy asked me to take his picture because he hadn't dropped his ball even one time....he did right after I got his picture! :-)

These two were a HOOT! She wasn't supposed to turn around to pass it over her head! LOL!

Story time with Adventure Liz and Adventure Derrick was also a favorite!

They had some super adventure moves. They liked to jump high, crawl low, run fast and run slow. (The little girl who is video bombing here was QUITE the handful and ended up crying the last night because I made her sit by me after breaking a rule! :-/ )

They learned that "God's big story (the Bible) tells us about God's big love!"

Program night:

The first through 6 graders have day camp from 9-1 at a local farm here in town. They were awesome! It gave me goosebumps watching them!

Overall it was a fun, but busy week! This took up all of our morning until naptime. Then we had evening activities on three of the five weeknights as well! Needless to say, I enjoyed that Stephen let me sleep in on Father's Day nonetheless! Speaking of, we did acknowledge him today with a few things. Jesstine and I found a panda card that sang "I Love You A Bushel and a Peck!" We had to tape a picture of a monkey on it though because he specifically mentioned a monkey card. We also got him a Wichita State tie (and a matching one for Emmitt) as well as a set of Dallas Cowboys pencils. Maybe one of these days I can get a picture of Stephen and Emmitt in their matching ties!

In Him,
