Parkin' it up

Saturday we were invited to play Frisbee Golf with Crystal and Dean. Mike and I had never played before so it was not so pretty play for us. However, towards the end at least Mike was throwing it pretty well...I still was not very good. Mamaw and Papaw took the kids to the park we were at to play and swim. They had so much fun. Thank you!!

Off to See the Wizard

Friday night we headed to Asheboro to see Auntie Crystal in The Wizard of Oz. Thanks to Mamaw and Papaw for taking the kids for us (I wasn't sure they would do well in a theater and the show didn't start until 7pm). It was great! See the dress Crystal is wearing in the pic? I made that! Yep...my first ever adult dress and it made a musical debut. After the play we headed out to eat to celebrate opening night. We had a blast!

Visiting some friends

Two weeks ago we were invited over for dinner at the MacCormick's house. This is Katelyn and Robert's house (our friends that we have play dates with). We had hotdogs and hamburgers, very delicious! Afterwards we put the kids in their swimsuits and they played in the kiddie pool, threw water balloons, and a water ball. We had so much fun! Thanks for having us!!

VBS Performance

Sorry for the lack of posts this week. I have been swamped with Vacation Bible School. By the time I get home, feed the kids, do birthday party stuff, then dinner, I am pooped by the time the kids go to bed. Last night we had a concert for the parents of all the kids. I taught the 3rd graders and helped with choir for 1st-6th grade students. However, as a surprise the preschool kids performed a few of songs too. The first two is on video one. Poor Maddie was hidden behind some tall kids and then sat down until I asked if she could be moved on the third song (video two). They all did great. Hope you enjoy!

P.S. sorry about the shaky video...I'm going to have to fire my videographer (me) lol!!
