Life, life. life

Full day here on the homefromt. We had a VBS planning meeting today. Our VBS is starting on Monday, so we had a lot to accomplish. We painted murals for the offering contest, watched a worship video to play for the kids, ate pizza, hung posters, discussed a schedule, the list goes on and on. I am really looking forward to VBS this year and hope that we can show Christ's love to all of the kids that come in our doors and make Him very real to them.

This evening after the meeting, a group of us went to the 7th annual Comcast Outdoor cinema. Surf's Up was the movie this year. It was totally adorable. The Hubby and I had never seen it and we really enjoyed it. One of my high school English teachers was the "opening act" with his band, Six Pack Pretty. They played a lot of 70's and 80's music and it was fun to see him play. It became super cold at the end of the night, but we stayed until the end, packed up and headed home. It truly was a great day.

Life, playing catch-up

It has been over a month since I have posted. I guess that there is not a lot of stuff going on that is blog worthy day by day, so here is a lump post.

My grandma is currently in a rehab nursing home (not that kind of rehab...). She has had both hips replaced in the course of her lifetime and one has completely failed her. She is doing physical therapy and occupational therapy to help strengthen her muscles and get her up and around again as best as possible. It is tough to be 90!

We have been doing some travelling recently. We went up north to Lynnwood in mid-April for the Newsboys concert, which was awesome. We also had a chance to visit the Seattle Aquarium with The Boy. Interestingly though, the night before the Aquarium visit, we had 7 inches of snow. Totally crazy! The power went out and we had the chance to play some good ol' fashioned Skip-Bo.

Last weekend, we went to The Dalles for a memorial service for John's grandma. They were never close in his lifetime, which is sad to both he and myself. We went to be with his mom for emotional support, and also to visit with Crystal, his sister. She has not seen The Boy since the day after his birth. My, how time flies.

We are headed out on Friday for vacation. Woo Hoo! Disneyland, here we come! We have some fun things planned while we are there and I am really looking forward to not cooking, swimming, warm weather (hopefully) and a great time with my family.

I hope everyone out there in blogland is doing well!

God Bless!

Life, all day long

Today, a day filled with kids, groceries, cleaning, and naps for all (except John).

The Boy and I started our day welcoming Chloe for the day. We went to my appointment then grocery shopping and returned home to eat fruit roll-ups for being good. The kids probably should of had naps a little sooner than they did, but oh well.

Tonight, we have been tidying up the place. Gpa is coming tomorrow to have someone measure the tub for a retro-fit to make it a walk-in for Gma. I hope all goes well there.

Beany gave me a little nausea this morning and a smidge tonight. I am really looking forward to our first pictures next week!
