Day in July

Josh was given a day off last week, so we thought we would enjoy a little bit of God's creation. Colorado is a beautiful place, and we have not enjoyed it NEARLY enough. I could do without the wind AND the mosquitos bugs are the worst. AND when I say the mosquitos are bad I mean worse than I have ever seen in my life. They are gigantic on top of being abundant! We spend EVERY evening killing at least 10-15 before we go to bed, JUST so that we don't get eaten all night, enough of my mosquito rant. The weather is unpredictable, but I don't mind too much. It's often cool in the evenings, which brings relief from the warm afternoons. I am blessed to live here.

PromiseLand

The week before Shallah arrived the kids attended our church's VBS, and they had a blast. The theme was PromiseLand (like Candyland).....there was SO much candy involved that it was ridiculous. AND REZ makes every effort to make things over the top. The church was filled with everything related to candy. Candy bars hanging from the ceiling, cotton candy, and colored carpet squares were EVERYWHERE. The goodness of God was the main theme, and the children were also told to share it with others. Crazy hair day had to be the funniest, although, HAT day was a lot of work.
