Vacation Bible School 2011

Karen, Bev and I directed the preschoolers for this years VBS! What a week it was. We had 12 preschoolers and they were tons of fun. Our theme this year was PandaMania. One of my many crazy ideas were to make panda hats!! The kids loved them!! Ava and Mommy's

Mommy's New Ride

You knew it was comming :) Yup, we are proud owners of a Dodge Caravan!! We started looking and came across an AMAZING deal! We still have the other 2 cars and good thing because the day after Steve's birthday he was in an accident and took out my car :( The good news :Stephen and the car are okay! So we have the SUV. We will get my car hopefully Monday from the bodyshop and we will continue to use that as our commuter car and the van stays wherever the kids are!!

I'm not kidding I have been so busy with church work. We have actually had the van a little over 2 weeks! I am just now getting pictures posted :)

Fun in the sun

Tonight is the last night of VBS. I have been working some long days. Today I just wanted to spend some time with the kids.

The Sweetest Thing....

is this little boy right here!! He is growing up so fast, makes me pretty sad. Although it is fun seeing him turn into a fun, lovable, sweet little boy. He does very well with his sisters and is the love of my life!
