VBS 2013

We started attending Crosspoint Church in Tartesso.  The kids had an absolute blast learning about Jesus with the mission group and other amazing leaders that led VBS!  They came home telling us all about what they learned and the fun they had with their friends.

We are so blessed to have found such an awesome group of like minded believers :)

 Colton and his friends Josiah and Si ... they are becoming real good pals! 

 Carley was excited to show her drawstring bag to Daddy :)

 These girls from the Mission Team were so good with the children and 

the kids were sad to see them go! 

 They all wanted in the photo with my kids.. was so cute! The next day we 

ran into their whole group again swimming at our pool before the headed back to L.A. 

 Stetson got in a silly mood and wouldn't crack a smile for anyone! 

As you can see each and every one of them gave it a try. 

Baby Spiny Lizard

Most of you probably wont care about this blog post BUT I had to take photos of this cute little guy!   All of my kids including Carley get such a kick out of all the little desert critters!  The only part I don't like is when they get lost in my house!  This guy managed to get behind my fridge after Colton dropped him.  He bit Colton and Stetson, fortunately even though it hurt really bad, he doesn't seem to have teeth.. just a really strong jaw!

Summer Pool Fun

It is so much fun when Sean joins us at the pool! The kids had an absolute blast! They swam for 4 hours until the sun went down and then Sean joined them and they played another hour! We have been going to Denise and Panos' house to use their pool.  Only problem is that it's an hour away. So, we've only been there twice since it's been warm enough.  Last night we found out the school that is 5 minutes form our house, has a pool that they JUST opened! We are stoked!  I never thought in the middle of the desert a little town school would have an indoor pool!  And yay.... NO sun screen needed!
