Vacation Bible School






This years theme for VBS was "God's Big Backyard" The focus was on SERVICE: Serving Family, Serving Friends, Serving Neighbors, Serving Community and Serving Jesus. I was the EMCEE of the event and God as usually placed my heart int he right place and gav e me the words and wisdom to be in front of this wonderful group of over 100 kids. Hannah was Nikki the Squrill, she did a great job! It was a puppet and she moved her puppet and spoke clearly, we were really proud of her. It is always nice to see Hannah use her gifts to serve Jesus! Gabby, well it was her first time and she wanted to be up front with MaMa. Daddy did a good job of keeping her entertained in the audience and a few times I was able to hold her and sing with the kids. She loved this and tried to do the hand motions, she also grabbed the microphone! She does everythign she sees right now so I think she is learning how to entertain and use a microphone right now! LOL We had a wonderful cast and crew for VBS and I love seeing the kids respond to Jesus in such a positive and fun way! Jesus loves all the little children of the World!!!

Sisters





Summer time is so much fun. We are enjoying watching Hannah and Gabby bond as sisters! Here's a few pictures of them July 13th, 2008 before we headed out for Sunday School and Church at St Peter's Lutheran Church.

Gabby Really Does Enjoy her pool!






Okay, it was a rough start but here is the rest of the shots from the day and she had a great time!

Gabby's New Pool






Gabby likes to go in the big pool with her daddy and Hannah but she really loves her new little pool we fill up in the front. She wasn't sure about the tempurature at first then she "warmed" up to it and had a good time! Here's a few pictures of her first go at it!
