Elgin Easter Egg Hunt

Elgin had its First Annual Easter Egg Hunt to benefit the Relay for Life team. The girls got to hunt eggs, jump in bouncy houses, get their picture taken with the Easter Bunny, decorate eggs, and get some pretty awesome face painting done. It was the first year the team had done the event and they were really surprised with the turn out. They ran out of drinks and food pretty quickly. We were the last in line for the face painting and stood in line over an hour. That was okay though. At least the line was in the shade and we were waiting on Jordan and Ashley's friend Eva to come play with them at the park anyway.










Ashley stood in the short line to just get a butterfly.

Jordan, AKA Tiger

Hailey was so excited to get a pink elephant!

VBS Family Night

We had an amusement park atmosphere for family night of VBS. First the kids sang a few songs from VBS and then Brother Bob presented the gospel to the parents. Then we headed in for inflatables, balloon creatures, face painting, crafts, cotton candy, popcorn, and pickles! The girls had a blast. They missed the pony rides, but were grateful that the ponies stayed home and didn't get drenched in the total downpour right before the event! Practicing while waiting on the other kids to arrive. A - Admit to God that you're a sinner and repent. B - Believe that Jesus is God's own son. C - Confess your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. It's the ride of your life when you dare to believe in Jesus Christ!!

Vocabulary Words

After report cards came back, we realized that it might be a good idea to study for the vocabulary test instead of just the spelling words. Now we're snapping a picture on Wednesdays of the vocabulary and taking pre-test on it too. Just making sure we can read the definitions is helping a lot. Seeing lots more 100s on the test now.

Traveling

I'm amazed at how much we drive. I took this picture leaving school today. Wasn't it just a year or two ago that I took the picture of the odometer at 12345? We actually travel less than we used to. Monday and Tuesday is normally just to Elgin and back home. Wednesdays have us driving to school, Lawton, and then to home. The same thing happens on Thursday for gymnastics, piano, and dance. On Friday we just go to school and back home. Then on Sunday we go to church in Lawton. To some people that is a lot of driving. It doesn't really seem like it to me. But I guess the odometer doesn't lie.
