This week we had VBS at church! Carson and Betsy weren’t in a real class since the youngest class is Pre-K, but since we have lots of toddlers at church and lots of their moms were volunteers they had a little class for the littles. They didn’t participate in all the same activities, but did some of them. At the end of the week both Carson and Betsy brought home bags with their sailor hats and some of their crafts. I asked Carson about the fish in his bag. I said, “What are these?” Carson, “Fish from church!” Me, “What did you learn about the fish?” Carson, “God. I mean Jesus! The bible!” Classic answers from a 3 year old :)
This weekend we had a really nice time with just us. If Ben had gone to Vegas I would already have had a baby and he would already be gone for the next 2-3 weeks. So I was extra thankful for the good family time we had as possibly (and hopefully) our last weekend as a family of 4. We went out for burgers on Saturday afternoon, grilled Saturday night, church on Sunday followed by Father’s Day lunch at Jason’s Deli (Carson loved Jason’s Deli big time) and then grilled again on Sunday night. Ben got to go on a bike ride on Sunday, some much needed time for him. But even though it was father’s day weekend he still helped me out by going to the grocery store not once, but twice. He’s a good man :) And a wonderful husband and father. We love you, Ben!
And a few more from the week.
I finally hung these shelves in the kids room!
I ordered “Pat the Bunny” for the kids. This page in particular brought back some memories. The smell is just the same.
Post nap cuddles with my girl.

At the pool! Carson is getting more comfortable in the water.

This tragedy has been happening to my tomatoes. Four so far. One really big and beautiful one. At first we thought is must be squirrels or some other rodent. BUT Ben witnessed a bird swooping down and getting one this weekend! I’m planning to get some netting to keep them from getting any more.












The shelves look really great!
