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 Start Birthday Week

  Yes, my Mom had my name misspelled on the cake.😂 It was still yummy so it was all good. T, A, and I all have our birthdays within a week and a half. Which means there is a crazy amount of sugar within those 10 days. We always like to make whoever's birthday it is feel special for the day. We watch what they want,do activities they like, eat what they pick, do their chores for them, etc. It not usually too expensive, but just a fun day where it's focused on them. The kids use to use their days to rule like little kings and queens, but have become a lot calmer in their "old" age since they get to do whatever they want most of the time anyways. We are a pretty close family and do a lot of things together all the time anyways, but on birthdays we still make sure we defer to the birthday boy/girl. My birthday is first and the kids do so many nice things for me all the time, but they put forth an extra effort on my birthday. This year A even woke up early to turn the cof...

The Bunch Are Ready For Fall To Come Back

  A and I at our favorite venue. We LOVE Bass Hall. I must admit that we are pretty tired of the crazy hot weather. We are ready to go back to the temps we had at the beginning of September. We played pickleball again this week, but D had required overtime to work so just T, A, and I went. We played singles and winner played the next person or A and I played together against T.  We ended up in full sun and the humidity was a killer. We are happy that the cold front is coming through this week and the mornings should be in the 60s or low 70s with low humidity. It should be super nice to play in. T won every game we played, but A and I together definitely made him work harder! We still had a lot fun. We decided against our usual post game Braums. We all were hot and really just wanted to get home to the a/c.  A won the lottery for tickets at Bass Hall to see the Life of Pi. We were up in the upper gallery, but that might have been beneficial for this show. The animal puppet...

The Bunch's Streak Of Bad Luck Continues

We made great time on the way there! It's amazing how leaving only 30 minutes later can help immensely with traffic. I wish all the shows started at 8 instead of 7:30.  What a week this was! We went to Bass Hall to see Back to the Future. It was ok. Definitely not the best play we have seen. The boys went with us and since the last two shows they joined us for were The Outsiders, which is one of, if not our most, favorite show ever, and A Christmas Story, which is in probably in the top 6, they were really not impressed. However, we still had a nice time doing something different together.  We love Bass Hall❤️ We had opening night tickets and got a GREAT deal! I went in this week and had my polyps removed plus they did a biopsy. I was more sore and for longer than I anticipated. Yes, the doctor said recovery was about 10 days, but I really only anticipated maybe 3-4. Boy, was I wrong! It's been 7 days now and by 10 I think I will be completely back to normal. Unfortunately, sh...
