Friday - Final day of fun

Mom sure did try to cram in as much fun stuff as she could today. We got to go to Conner Prairie, paint fun pictures, and even slip and slide! All that fun and then off to VBS for the final day. It makes me so sad that it is the final day. I don't want it to ever end and don't ever want Cole to go home. But, Mom says Cole misses his Mom, Grandparents, Jazzy and Felix (dog and cat) and all his friends.....so I guess all good things must come to an end. My bedroom is going to be so lonely without him.....

The balloon wasn't flying - bummer!

Matching the skins to the footprint for local Indiana animals (beaver, otter, raccoon, bobcat and deer)

Visiting the Trade Post

Trying to make fire with flint and steel.....this is way harder than it looks!

The "teacher" made it look so easy.....I think he was just showing off!

Visitng the animals in the barn (donkey, calf, goats, sheep)

Science Lab - I wish we would have had more time to spend here.

Back home for some more slippin and a slidin! Today the wind was blowing so we had to take some breaks in the baby pool filled with nice warm water.

Tuesday Fun

Well, in the morning, we just hung out at home. E2 had an appointment with the lady who looks at her mouth (which means I am banished like a princess in the tower to my room, but at least this time Cole was banished with me). We did do some drawing, cutting and coloring. C taught me how to make an origami cup in case I was ever lost in the wilderness with a piece of paper and needed a drink from a small stream. He also told me how to turn nasty or salty water into something I could drink, but I didn’t understand. For now, I’ll just use the refrigerator water. After the morning appointment, we got to do something totally exciting – grocery shopping. Woohoo, who doesn’t like to be snapped at for about an hour by her Mom saying “don’t touch that”, “don’t break that”, “no, there’s too much sugar”, “that’s not good for you”, “you shouldn’t need a rest, you’re 4 with all kinds of energy”. I mean come on –it’s like heaven (not). After my nap (oh, did I mention that Mom said I must need a nap because I was arguing and bossing so much?), we played some Wii while Mom got dinner ready. Then, off to VBS again. I love it! I love learning about God. I love it that C is with us. I love it that everyone else is so excited! I just LOVE it! I especially love the dancing and singing. C and I have learned our verse already – it is Psalm 139:14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Yeah, we are kind of smart – we just learned it on the ride home. Not that we’re bragging – God made us this way.

Love to all,
E1

This is E2 playing with the magnifying glass.

Coloring and Crafting.

Reaching, reaching....just a little more....

Before VBS.

Some shots of the sanctuary at church - it totally doesn't look like our lil white church now! Pharoah came in and took over.

E1 dancing to I've Got DNA. :)

E2 having fun going through the pyramid entrance. Where'd the fancy french doors go?
