Summer Fun!

This week the children have been a part of an amazing Vacation Bible School program.  Lucy Mills has attended for the past two years but this is McClain's first time.  As you can see someone was pumped, and someone was not...

He really did fine and even had two buddies, Avery and Hollis, in his same class.  When I asked them how the morning was Lucy Mills exclaimed, "Mama, VBS is the best, best, best! I love it!" McClain responded, "Wellllll if I have a tummy ache tomorrow I can't go to VBS.  I'll just have to stay home with Daddy and watch movies."  #nothappeningkid

This has been a great week and the kids have been singing Bible songs and bringing home craft projects each day.  

On Wednesday after VBS we met up with our friends, Hudson and Avery, for a bowling adventure.  Just look at these precious kiddos in their bowling shoes.  Melt. 

I am constantly on the lookout for fun activities to do this summer that are both cost effective, and either involve air conditioning or water.  Well at the local bowling alley they offer a day where kids can bowl free and we were so there.  

This was our first crack at bowling. 

And they absolutely LOVED it.  Like we were there for three hours without naps or meltdowns loved it.  

Along with the lighter weight balls, the kids were able to use these ramps to help get the ball down the lane.  

In no time at all they got the hang of it. 

At one point Lucy Mills jumped up on my lap and said "Mama! I just love this! Thank you for bringing us here!" 

Its been a full week of VBS, bowling, swimming, and being with friends.  I'd say my kiddos have a pretty good life. ;)
