party & awanas

We had the awana awards day two weeks ago. Brady will be a 2nd year Cubbie next year & Brooke will still be in Sparks. Its really great to hear them learn bible verses each week and to hear Brooke tell us the books of the bible. I enjoyed teaching Puggles this year. We had a great group of 8 kids and I will miss them as they move to Cubbies next year.

We also celebrated Colbys birthday party at the lake weekend before last. The kids had fun swimming in the lake, tubing and fishing. This past weekend Heath took them to another b'day party at Wateree Gymnastics and Bradys sunday school class party. They got to ride 4 wheelers and swim. We had a yard sale Saturday and I told the kids if they sold some of their toys we could use the money to join the pool. Several of our neighbors go there so really wanted to join. Luckily we made enough to join pool and more summer fun money. I spent the weekend getting ready for vacation bible school. We had registration night Sunday night. We are lower in numbers this year but kids are having a great time. We usually run around 80 but we changed the week this year so I think some people didn't realize it was this week and others were on vacation. After this week our summer is not very busy which is what I like. Heath is going to beach this weekend with some guys to golf, I go in two weeks, my neice will be born on the 29th & we will go to the beach again in July as a family for a few nights. Hope everyone has great summer.

The end of the school year

Brooke had a first grade hot dog party last Friday to celebrate the end of the year. I guess Brady thought he was the man dancing with all the girls.

After the hot dog party & Brookes game that night we suprised the kids at went to the beach and stayed with my sister & her family since they were already staying down there. They also had 8 free Myrtle Waves tickets so we enjoy seven hours of Myrtle Waves. We had a really good time because the kids could ride on the double tubes with us so we were all able to enjoy the fun slides instead of the usual kid area. I am not allowed to post pics of Julies kids. I have in the past and can't figure out how to get them off but that is why there are no pics of them. Once all adoption paperwork is clear I can. The picture of Brady crying is when we set the crabs free that we got last year at the beach. He has never paid them a bit of attention or cared about them until we "set them free". Never thought those crabs would live almost a year. Figured at the most a month. They spent the school year in Brookes class. Memorial day we spent the day with friends at the zoo & then ate dinner with my parents.
