VBS - Ice Cream Sundae

Ray C. was in charge of recreation for VBS this year! We only had 500 kids!! Can you believe that? Anyway...everyone kept telling me what a great job he did. I can't understand why they were surprised that he would be good at recreation, but I'm glad they were impressed. Apparently, the kids had a really good time. All week long they talked about turning Pastor Ray into a Human Ice Cream Sundae. So, the kids and I went up to enjoy the show Friday morning. It was quite a show! First they dumped ice cream all over him...
then cool whip, and chocolate syrup. Finally, Godfrey, our Senior Pastor, dumped the cherries on top. He was quick to take a bite and run off the stage before Ray C. saw him up there. I think that was smart on his part!!
So, after they finished, they handed out spoons to some of the volunteer moms - not quite sure how I feel about that, but since I was there, I guess it's okay! They let the kids and I go up and gave us spoons as well, but I wasn't about to eat off of him after he'd been sweating for 3 hours doing recreation with the kids! I don't want to eat off of any body's sweaty body - even if it is my own SUPER HOT husband!! :)

I Know..I Know

Life has been nuts this past month!!!! Thomas graduated from preschool and summer began. I am now trying to balance being a mom and working from home - not really working out that well, but I'm figuring it out. My mother has been pretty sick the past 2 weeks, but she is doing much better now!

Thomas has been bitten twice by fire ants which is a BIG deal for a child who is highly allergic to fire ants! We've done more testing with the allergist, and he finally started his allergy shots last week - only to get another ant bite that night!!

I have started my busy season with weddings, and, of course, I'm LOVING it! I had two weddings this weekend and then got a sinus infection. I didn't get to sing in church this morning which was really depressing for me, but I enjoyed lounging a little this morning!

We did finish the weekend off very nicely by enjoying the amenities of our neighborhood. We lounged at the pool for a little while with the neighbors and then we headed to the park and checked out some canoes. We canoed for about an hour through the neighborhood - under bridges and everything. It was SO nice. I kept telling Ray C., "This is so relaxing, and we're not even on vacation!" We seriously live in the coolest neighborhood.

I will try to be a better blogger this month! Sorry if you have been bored! I can assure you that my house has been anything but boring. I just haven't been able to blog it all! I will say that there has been a lot of discussion about the EpiPen in our house!!!

Have a fun week! Hopefully I'll be back at it soon - with pictures!
