Sunday's VBS Kickoff Party

Last week, Jenna and Codi picked up the kids and took them swimming at their pool. While they had the kids, they bought them each new swimsuits. Elaine wanted her first 2-peace swimsuit. It's a Tankini. Allan got cute boardshorts.

The next day, Codi and Jenna took the kids to the movies, to see 'Despicable Me'. They loved it. It's all they talked about for 2 days. They are still quoting it here and there.

Allan says the main character's minions looks like the cereal, 'Pops'. (see?)

Sunday afternoon, we all went to the kick off party for their next Vacation Bible School, at Regina's church. It was a waterslide party, so the new swimsuits were their outfit of choice.
(I had her wear white shorts with her new swimsuit). They're going to VBS every night this week.


After two slides down the slide, Allan's spikes mostly laid flat. Only one spike held up. He looked like a unicorn or Alfalfa! :)

Mohawk

I went to buzz Allan's hair all off, the other night.

Elaine: Give him a mohawk!!
Allan: Yeah, I want what she said.
Me: Are you sure?
Allan: Yeah. Rocker DUDE!

I decided I can let him have his fun and then even it out before school starts up.

Parade of Two

The kids wanted to make a parade for Independence Day. They made two laps around our house, taking turns with the flute and leading the way.

Allan led the parade on the fist lap, then Elaine led the second lap around our house.

He said, "March march march. Pose for Picture. March March march. Pose for picture." He'd stop for a second and smile, so I could snap photos. I didn't tell him to do that and it cracked me up!!

Girl Scout treats and Facepainting

Elaine was proud when she received her patches and awards for selling Girl Scout cookies.

VBS and other summer activities

The kids attended a VBS at Cooper Creek Baptist Church. It was western themed.

The first night, they painted bandannas with stamps. The next night, they decorated straw hats. Allan was so proud.


Elaine had Girl Scouts on Monday night, but got to go to the VBS the rest of the week. The kids kept dressing western all week for fun.

Jimmy took the kids to see scenes from 'The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe', performed in the center of the mall last weekend. I painted Allan's face, at my work, before he went to the show. Tom (from Barnes & Noble) read to the kids and they had craft activities too.
