3 Down... 1 To Go

Well the boys just finished their third VBS of the summer! Bradley broke out with the chicken pox and had to miss the last two days of our Crosspoints VBS, so I told him he could go with some friends to Ridgecrest's VBS. After that one we got a flyer to attend Mineral Heights so I said WHY NOT?!!! This last church has been the smallest church, but the VBS was awesome! It was Avalanche Ranch and the boys had a great time. Actually, Jake was the only 5 year old to show up, so they combined him with the preschool class. Every night the kids would yell YEE HAW when the director said the Bible truth for the day. On the last night they had a crazy hair contest and this is how we did the boys hair.

And guess what??? They won the crazy hair contest and these horses were their prize.

Now I am house sitting for my parents and the boys will go to a VBS here. They love it! And so do I. I never thought VBS hopping could be so fun!

PaPa's room

Well, insted of starting our first day at Disney, we are sending Randy out to California to meet up with Deborah, his sister, and his brother Gary. We are sad but somewhat relieved to say that PaPa passed away Monday night. He fought a LONG brave battle against cancer and the Lord finally took him home. Bradley had come home from church one night with these materials to make what he thought his room would look like in Heaven. He decided instead to make what he thought Papa's room would look like, since he knew Papa was very sick.

"In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you." John 14:2

I know that John is loving his new room in Heaven that was made just for him, and I'm sure it is way more beautifull than polished stones and a yellow plate. We miss him greatly but we know he is finally home and without pain.
