KIDZONE BLITZ

Our church held a community event tonight that was just a blast. They served dinner & brought in a Christian magician who was great (Moriah got to be an assistant & you know she ate that up). They followed it up with ice cream, cotton candy, hayrides, face painting, a fire truck complete with lights & hose the kids could spray and 3 huge inflatable toys! The kids were wet but happy by the time we dragged them out of there. I am so glad to be a part of a church that cares about kids and community. We invited some friends but unfortunately none of them could come. Awana starts in a couple of weeks which is a program that I love and am so glad that we have at our church. The kids get the chance to learn God's word while having a great time doing it.

The Last Horah

I wanted to have a little party for the kids before school started to kind of commemorate their summer. They had a blast. We had water balloon tosses, sac races, bobbing for apples, water relays & a frozen t-shirt contest (don't ask). I cannot believe that summer is almost over. I have mixed feelings about school starting. I am not excited about it, but there is no use fighting reality. I guess I will try to heed Pastor Kevin's advice & Seize the Day. If I really put that into practice and didn't waste my time worrying but instead took every opportunity to teach and train my kids in righteousness while I have them at home we would all be better off. Happy last week of summer to you all:)

GO WILD

We went to the African Lion Safrai in Ontario Canada a few days ago & had an absolute blast. There were so many amazing animals to see & tons of other things to do there at the Safari. The kids loved the Elephant ride & the Safari drive the best.

I can't go on...

I feel like I cannot possibly continue on with blogging until I am able to find my camera. Somehow I am convinced there is nothing worth writing about unless I have a picture to accompany it. I would love to write about how much fun the kids & I had at the zoo on Friday. About all the cool giveaways and petting the stingrays and seeing the Lions there for the first time. Somehow it's just not the same since I have no fun snapshots to go along with the words. So if any of you out there in cyberspace have a 6 mega pixel Cannon digital camera lying around & you have no idea where it came from, let me know. I would be forever in your debt. God Bless.
