VBS: Monday & Tuesday

This week is Vacation Bible School at our church.  Our theme is Rev It Up: Full Throttle For God (race car theme) and the kids are absolutely loving it!  I'm not sure about last night, but tonight we had somewhere around 35 kids, which is pretty good for a community this size.  A lot of kids that we normally have were either out of town or at church camp and some have even moved :(  I am doing music (again) for pre-school through age 12 and I am so glad that Carl has been around to help me.  He has been my go-to guy :) 
Here are a few pictures of the week so far:
Trey thinks his sunglasses are awesome because Carl gave
them to him :)  They were watching Speed Bump (see below)
This is Speed Bump:  my dad!  Each night there is a little skit
that involves a character named Speed Bump.  As you can tell
by the looks on the kids faces, he is hilarious!  This is
probably their very favorite part :)

Makena, walking to the room with her classmates.

Look at all those handsome boys:  Avery, Noah, Trey, and Ashton.

Carlie talking with the girls before we got started!

Singing "Every Move I Make".  This is their VERY favorite
song to sing.  It makes me so happy to see them get into
a song like they do this one :)

***A little news not related to VBS:  #1 we went to court last Thursday and the loser guy got sentenced to another 90 days in jail for criminal trespassing.  The judge was sick that he couldn't be charged with more, so he gave him the maximum amount of time and didn't count the time he had already spent in jail/rehab.  Of course he has 30 days to appeal.  We'll just keep praying about that :)  It's a small victory, but a victory non the less.  Another good thing about it was that he plead guilty, so neither Carl nor Carlie had to testify.  Praise the Lord!!
#2 I finished two of my classes for the summer, today!! WOO HOO!!!!  I only have two to worry about now and one of those I have a mid-term in on Thursday, and I have to drive to LR to take it.  Not looking too forward to that , but I can't stop now.  At least that means I get to sell my books back (maybe that will pay for my gas!!).

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, friends! We made it through another week here on the homestead. Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites :) This week has flown by! On Monday, Wrenley started her new "school year" at daycare. Even though she is in the same school with a lot of the same kids, she moved up and is now officially in PreK! She has had to adjust to new teachers, but seems to like it so far :) She is BeBe's big girl! 💓💓💓 At the beginning of the week, Carl asked if Makena and I wanted to go with him and Trey put some corn and salt blocks out for the deer. Say less, sir! Of course, our answer was yes :) Our chariot and driver Trey and Maggie Hopefully, our hard work pays off! Also came across this guy. He was around 5 ft. long and had 14 rattlers. Don't ask how I know that 😟 We always have a good time when we hang out with our guys, and that is most certainly a favorite! Watching my girl do her thing at work will always be my favorite!...

Friday Favorites

 Woo Hoo, it's Friday! Just last week I was talking about how this month is flying by, but this week has moved at a snail's pace! Today, I am linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for Friday Favorites. I have been working on my fitness for about a year now, more seriously in the past 6 months. One thing I've worked on is getting my daily protein in. I tried the built puff protein bars a while ago and they are wonderful, but earlier this week I found the sour puffs, and wow, those things are surprisingly amazing!! I've also taken the new year to do a little more for myself. I started ordering from Nuuly (a monthly clothing subscription). I have found serveral brands that I have wanted to try. There is no pressure to buy anything. You just simply pick 6 items, wear them for the month and send it back and then pick 6 more items (of course, you can purchase if you like). This is a new favorite of mine. At the end of November I bought tickets to the Jason Aldean conce...

Friday Favorites

 Happy Friday, Friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday Favorites. What a week it has been! Having picnics with Wrenley and Makena were pretty high up on my favorites list. She wanted a lunchable (big surprise there!) while Makena and I had tuna salad. Playing outside is a must with Wrenley! And she loves making sure the bird bath has plenty of water! Another thing on my favorites list is listening to Trey play the guitar. This smile is also my favorite! We had a celebration for my son-in-law, Caleb this week. He is a pretty great guy and we are thankful that he is "ours" now :)  He is my favorite son-in-law! As I was studying for my Gospel Project lesson earlier this week I realized we only have 3 more lessons! That means that summer break is just 3 weeks away (for our Wednesday night program)! Although I will still have to prepare lessons for Sunday School and VBS.  Summer is my favorite! This summer will be extra sp...
