Backyard Bible Club

Wednesday afternoon, our church hosts Backyard Bible Club after school. The boys get picked up from school and ride the church bus to Bible Club.  P was home from school with strep throat this particular Wednesday, but you can see in the photos that C and his friends had a blast!

just another Saturday morning

C takes a break from his calendar math on dress down pink day {to raise funds for breast cancer research} to smile for the camera!

ASU cheer clinic

The first Saturday in October, C had a chance to go to App State for a cheerleading clinic.  The ASU cheerleaders patiently worked with all of the kids enrolled in the clinic, teaching them techniques and a routine to perform during the pregame festivities.

Yosef came during the lunch break and met with the future cheerleaders and their families.

The only downside to the day was the rainy weather.  Even that didn't deter C!

P was disappointed that we couldn't stay for much of the game due to the rain, but App did pull off a win.  Hopefully next year's clinic will be accompanied by beautiful weather!

breaking board

ordinary days

C had a chance to bring the "Birdie Bag" full of fun games and books home from school one weekend in October.  His favorite bandito, Skippyjon Jones, was the star of the books in the bag.  Skippito Friskito tagged along on the boys' adventures all weekend!

international FaceTime

The time difference often poses a challenge, but one Sunday afternoon/Scottish evening in September, we were able to connect with Pastor Sarah's family so that P and Kieran could FaceTime.  The wonders of modern technology, put to good use!
