The Joys of Summer

I love summer! Rich and I sit outside and have our coffee and devotions and take bike rides in the cool of the morning. I am able to visit with my girls and grandbaby as much as I like! Even though I love teaching, it is nice to have a more relaxed routine during the summer. Henry just came over with his mama & he will stay with me for an hour or so while Becca does some shopping. OH JOY! Tonight is the last night of VBS. Tomorrow night is the program & picnic. I have actually enjoyed the evening format. For one thing, it is shorter (only two hours: 6:30-8:30) & it is cooler in the evening. It has been nice to have more men & working women be able to be involved.

VBS is Here!

Good Mo r ning, All! It is a beautiful, sunny Idaho day. In fact, it will probably be 90 degrees today. Thank goodness, it isn't humid! We are in the midst of decorating for VBS at church, so I will be at the church helping this afternoon. The theme is "Construction Zone - Building Character like Jesus." It will be interesting this year - since our church is in a construction zone - we are having an evening VBS format. It will probably affect attendance since many unchurched families may not want their children to be out in the evening (6:30-8:30). However, it was either doing it in the evening or not at all. Last night Rich & I went out for our anniversary (since our anniversary was Father's Day & Rich had a Men's Ministry Meeting on Monday night). It was fun - we went to a very nice restaurant in Meridian. We hadn't had a DATE NIGHT in a long time.
