Last Year's Reformation Party

Each year our church holds a party to have fun and learn about those mightily used of God during the Reformation. Last year, the focus was Martin Luther. This year, we turn to look at John Calvin. Theron and I are in charge of making and manning the Timeline Spinner Game. It has been a learning experience just putting it together.

Below are some pictures I took last year. By the way, this was our first time ever at this church. We became almost instant friends with everyone and could not wait to visit on Sunday. Of course we eventually joined.

I hope to get better pictures this year. The spinner Theron made is awesome!

What's for Lunch?

Today seemed like a good day to bake

and this loaf couldn't have turned out better!

Fresh and hot with butter and beef stew!

Perfect for a rainy day!

Magical Monday - Rope Trick

Another of Theron's tricks!

Have a great day!

Mom's Birthday Dinner

Make a Smilebox photobook

We were late, but we had a great time. This was friday evening.

Thursday's Thanks

I'm thankful for fall

and not so hot days,

I'm thankful for toys

and squirrels to chase;

And when it gets colder

I'm thankful for this,

a nice warm bed

close to the heater vent.

Not So Wordless Wednesday - Little Teacher

Impromptu teaching session with a magnetic book.

I just sat back and watched.

Using games and stories, she drew her student in.

Find the "g" and put it there and the dog gets a bone.

Mixing letters.

More instruction.

Attentive student.

Teacher steps back.

Happy student.

I did it!

Tuesday's Tune

Sometimes the kids get a tune in their head and they end up humming it all day.

Today, Josiah got his drum out and was into the Gideon tune from the VeggieTales video.

Of course, he got a little silly when I got the camera out!
