The Bunch "Journey Off The Map"...to VBS!



L wanted sock curls to go to VBS.

The next morning....super curly hair!

so bouncy!
This week is the much anticipated, always loved, fun filled week at The First Baptist Church of Lewisville, aka VBS.  The kids have been looking forward to this and they were not disappointed! They learned some great new worship songs and really enjoyed celebrating the Lord's love with all their friends. The church always goes all out to make VBS fun for the kids and this year was no exception. The church even constructed a cave for the students to walk through. The theme this year was Journey Off the Map (think Indiana Jones) and all the little explorers were out finding clues of God's love and grace. We had a blast and have even downloaded the worship songs to play at home.

Squirrels love the park too!

A and T playing ball
It is already the end of June and we have not hit 100 degrees yet! I know it is coming, but the lower temps have been enjoyable, though the high humidity from all the rain is making it slightly less comfortable than it could be. Today we went to the park to allow the kids some room to run around and had a great time. A and T played baseball (I use that term loosely) and L rode her bike around saving worms from certain death from sun exposure by throwing them off the sidewalk and into the grass. It was a great time for all. We are gearing up for the fourth of July festival by making some festive shirts. I'll let you know how that goes.

The Bunch Have A Hard Week

This was actually part of T's present. He had been begging D to do it.😂 It only stayed around a short while. After throwing such a fun and memorable birthday party for T at the lake with his basketball buddies, we have decided to part ways with the basketball organization. I cannot get past that evil man being anywhere near us or people I care about. I did make sure to give everyone a fair warning about the evil man and they can now hopefully make an informed decision about their level of involvement with him. I don't think T's too bothered by it. He didn't want to play this year anyways, but I had originally really wanted him to be around his friends. I am not sure what we will do instead, but I know he is happy to NOT have to run. He hates running. I am basically just feeling completely defeated. I trust no one and have a complete LACK of faith in police officers and lawyers. I know my husband is a good officer, but that's about it and the count is on until June

The Bunch Enjoy Easter

The Bunch ready to head to church to celebrate Easter. We had a wonderful Easter. The kids and I dyed eggs together. T made a fairly intricate Guns N Roses logo egg while A and I just enjoyed making pretty eggs. We have discovered that using food coloring makes for way brighter eggs than using the horrible Easter egg dye kits from the store. I participated in the egg hunt with the kids this year. It was so much fun! We laughed so hard as we all ran around trying to beat each other. Afterwards, we had our traditional egg gravy and went to church. We enjoyed a ham dinner and watched HOP. It was a great day.  T worked a long time on this egg. It was by far the most intricate egg he has ever done. He did a fantastic job! T actually fell down (you can tell by grass on his knee), but he wasn't going to lose no matter what! We had so much fun and laughter! It was great!! All smiles on our way to church. It was a little early still for A. The week has been pretty good. Better than I though

The Bunch Celebrate Valentine's Day And Grandma's Birthday

  Obviously, now that my kids are all pretty much grown Valentine's isn't as big of deal to them. However, in keeping with tradition, not to mention the fact T still wanted out of school for the day, we still had a mini party.  I told them that this year I wasn't going to get them any candy, normally I get balloons and special treat for each of them, but this year I just wasn't feeling it so I decided I would buy them all pizza (a treat since I rarely allow pizza) and I had some little Bundt cakes to celebrate with. They all said they were fine with that. L doesn't really do sweets, A doesn't like chocolate, and T doesn't like truffles, but they all like pizza. We took the day off and fortunately didn't have any basketball related stuff. No practice, no games, a rare no basketball day. We watched a movie, played some minute to win it games, and just basically enjoyed a nice low key day.  I remember the old days when they were little and we would all make
