Kookaburra Coast: VBS 2022

G'day friends! We came off of our Kookaburra Coast VBS a little over a week ago and I'm still singing the songs and talking the "lingo"!  We had a pretty great week. This was (hopefully) my last year of directing.  It was a great experience over the last two years, but I am ready to pass the torch to another eager volunteer :)  
Ready for some Awesome Adventures!

This was the theme from Regular Baptist Press this year.

Mrs. Cheryl teaching about Moses and the burning bush.

Makena Faith was our craft lady again this year.
I am proud of her and how she is always so willing and eager to help.

"From the bush to sea, to the mountains we see God's glory"
The kids loved singing the "Kookaburra Coast Theme Song"

Makena Faith was also our tech lady!
When you are member of a small, rural church, you wear many hats!
I'm not going to lie, there are times when I long to belong to a big church! 
Somewhere that you could just get lost in the crowd if you chose to, because let's face it,
that ain't happening in a small church! 

The oldest class, singing their little hearts out.

These are our kitchen ladies.  We fed the kids nightly.
Not snacks, but meals. From hot dogs & chips to nuggets with mac & cheese,
these ladies did a great job serving!

Mr. Luke looking all cool.


The kiddos always love the "train"

We made it through the week with no major issues. The kids learned about Moses' encounter with God's glory as well as learning different facts about some of God's great creations in the Australian Outback.

"Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let they glory be above all the earth."
 Psalm 57:5

Much Love,
Beth

Friday Favorites

  Happy Friday, friends! Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for another Friday favorites. And here they are in no particular order: Last week our preacher told us that he had a surprise for us next week.  I had honestly forgotten about it until Carl mentioned at lunch on Sunday.  Trey said he knew what it was, but he wasn't telling.  It still didn't occur to me what it could be until we arrived at church on Sunday night, and I saw that Trey had a notebook along with his Bible sitting next to him on our pew.  It was him. Trey was the surprise.  He gave a short devotion before our Business Meeting.  He did well, considering it was his first time.  He said the congregation was a lot scarier when you are the one being stared at! This is a big deal because about 7 months ago he realized that he needed Jesus as his Savior.  And that came after about 7 months of me worrying about him, while he was trying to stretch hi...

Friday Favorites

  Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for the first Friday Favorites of 2025! Over the past three weeks, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to spend more time with Wrenley. She is growing up so much. She is speaking in full sentences and is a clown to boot! We've enjoyed lots of naps in BeBe's bed, playing with baby dolls (one of her favorite things), and since I have to pick her up before 7 a.m. on the days she stays with me, we enjoy getting her favorites: donuts (nonuts) and hotcakes from McDonald's -not at the same time though! Snug as a bug in a rug! She loves her Ky Ky Another favorite is a clean kitchen! We have had our house in a bit of chaos like I'm sure everyone else has with all the holiday festivities (and with Carl being off). I am glad to have everything in its proper place! That ray of sunshine is therapy for my soul! The next thing on my favorites list is Carl's chili. We had it last night and will probably have leftovers for a few day...

Friday Favorites

 It's been a hot minute since I've linked up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for a Friday Favorites! This is me trying to get back into my blogging groove :) I came across this little dress last year when we moved, and I knew it would be fit Wrenley this summer! It was Makena's circa 2004.  I just love it when a plan comes together.  A favorite for sure! Look at those babies. Twenty years has flown by. Miss Wrenley Beth. She doesn't look a thing like her momma, but definitely has Aunt Makena's sass! Hopefully as her hair grows, she will get Carlie's curls. We have been doing as much outdoor activities as possible.  That includes one of my favorite things...fishing! Carl, showing off his big bass. We weren't technically bass fishing, but whatever bites. It'll eat! Of course we have also been going to the river.  Our kids weren't able to go with us, so we just took the jet ski.   It has been raining so the water is a gross brown. I didn't s...
