• We probably arrived at church earlier today than we have all week long. I was teaching the little kids class and wanted to be there in plenty of time to get all of my toys laid out. The kids walked with me to my new class to help me carry my bag and then they were off to their classes. 
• Campbell enjoys her class but she is the only one who is not too anxious to go. She would rather hang back with me for as long as she can. Yesterday, she was called up on the stage for an M&M sorting game. I should have taken a picture but I was way in the back. Campbell did win beating 2nd, 3rd and 4th graders.
• Back to today, everyone had a great time during VBS and my bag was crazy heavy this morning but this afternoon, it took both boys to carry it to the car. After we gathered everyone, we headed to Nonna and Pops' house for lunch.
• The other day the kids had helped Nonna snap some green beans so today she cooked the green beans with them along with potatoes and ham. Everyone ate some of the lunch-Anderson passed on the ham, Keaton passed on the potatoes and Whitman barely eats anything. Now, Reagan did eat at least a half pound of ham-that girl loves meat!
• After some playing, we came home and unloaded the car and after some straightening it was free time. A plumber came to replace our hot water heater so that was the afternoon's entertainment. Now, I did miss out on most of the entertainment because I was taking a nap. Today wasn't a 4 hour nap but maybe a 3 hour nap. Seriously, I don't know if I could physically take one more day of VBS.
• Jason came over to take the big boys to the movies. They watched the new Cars movie and then ended up meeting us at Wendys for supper. We had went there for supper and afterwards, we picked up some ice cream and headed to the Wilson's house for the rest of the evening.
• When we arrived, Shannon and the kids were playing Nertz and it brought back all kinds of college days memories. I loved that game-still do and I even won one hand of it. We stayed until late and shooed the kids into bed as soon as we made it home.
