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!

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'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...

The Bunch Have A Fun Week!

D had his awards banquet at a BBQ place we had been wanting to try for awhile. The food was really delicious and not greasy at all.  We have had a lot of expenses thrown at us lately. We bought our new appliances , which were well planned for. However, after that we had 2 cars to get repaired, one of which   was decided that it was too expensive and would make more sense to get a newer, stronger, younger one, I have to get some polyps removed, we owe uncle Sam money for the first time ever (thanks to the rule about the year a child turns 17 you lose the child tax credit even if the majority of the year they are 16), and lots of other little things. You know how it goes...when it rains it pours. Since we were unable to take the rv out because of the tow vehicle being unable to tow with a heavy load, more like us not wanting to risk trying, and since A had a day off work, we decided to go on an adventure to do something that none of us ever had done before. We started with...

The Bunch Say Goodbye

  Aunt P picked a lovely cemetery. It was so beautiful and peaceful. For the past 8 years or so we have helped our Aunt P.  We have had numerous visits and conversations over the years, not to mention dinners and root beer floats. We have watched her physical health decline while her mental health was still sharp as tack. Sadly, the last month of her life she had started to have several moments where she didn't know what was going on. We had numerous conversations about her death with her and we are very happy in knowing that she finally has the relief she wanted. The past year in particular was VERY hard on her and she needed help more. D and I would visit almost every Wednesday and Saturday, plus whenever she called for help. It was nice to talk to her. She was witty, smart, knew the answer to just about anything, and did a wonderful job of making you feel special and loved. I once told her that I would really miss our chats when she was gone...I will. I really enjoyed getti...
