Father's Day 2009



We had a great Father's Day. If you could say we celebrated, I think Saturday would count. We went to Lowes and got a manly gift...a grill! I am looking forward to learning how to use it. Sunday was quite a day with church, potluck lunch (in celebration of 4 Chinese ladies, students at Clemson, who were baptized) and then a closing VBS service. I did manage to get the cards written for Dan. He is such a great daddy!

VBS

Vacation Bible School began this evening. We have such a strange division of ages/boys/girls right now in our church, so we did the classes a little differently. Pre K, K-2, 3-6 boys, 3-4 girls and 5-6 girls. The girls way outnumber the boys. In a few years, the opposite will be true. We have 8 boys in the nursery at church and 0 girls. We need to put in those orders for girls soon! I am teaching the K-2 class, and what a precious group they are. We had 1 of our own and then 6 that do not attend regularly. What a blessing! They are a lot of fun to teach...and they were very well behaved tonight! I am looking forward to a great week.

Cousins!

This video was taken on March 8th--I didn't realize it had uploaded a while back, but it did, so here it is! What fun it is to have "twin" cousins!

Fun with the sheet!

We had a great time in Florida! I am not sure Daniel realized we were at the Breakers, but he didn't seem to mind. He had a great time playing with the sheets...that's the best part about the hotel, right? We had such a wonderful trip...I laugh at my comments in the videos. I think I am not thinking sometimes. We'll call it mommy brain...what I meant to say what that Daniel doesn't probably realize how much he should be enjoying his vacation :)...we sure enjoyed our stay!

Greenville

This past Saturday we ventured out to the Greenville Zoo with the teens from UBC. Daniel enjoyed the trip for the most part! He actually looked at some of the animals for about 10 minutes and then took a nap for the rest of the time at the zoo. For lunch we headed over to the Beacon in Spartanburg for a little bit of a cultural experience with the teens. We enjoyed the "a plenty" plates and had the pig's dinner for dessert. I love the Beacon. It brings back fond childhood memories!
