Palm Springs - part 2

More Sun, More Fun
Day 3

We did "Home Church" on this Sunday. We sang songs, prayed and had a very famous guest speaker - Grandma June! She acted/taught the story of Jonah with great helpers. Many lessons to be learned from Jonah.

Dani and Elizabeth are the sailors on the ship. Weston is Jonah. The ship was about sink.



So, the sailors threw Jonah overboard.



Along came a big fish and swallowed him up.



Jonah under the shade tree.



Dani was the worm. She came along and killed the tree. Jonah learned lots of things about God and himself through all of these events. We can learn from him also.



Rummikub was played often and when Weston played there was lots of laughter.


Brian took Caleb, Hudson and Abbi to a waterpark for the day. Gma June and I stayed home with the other children. We celebrated Hudson's birthday when they got home.

Gma taught the little girls to jump in the pool with their "rings" on. They enjoyed their new trick.



Maggie swam/played with Tess in the water. Tess loved it!



The Little Fish




The End

Ahhh, I'm imagining myself in the sun. . .and not the snow outside our door today!

Have you ever done a post about shopping/cooking for your family? Would you be willing to share some of your shopping/organizational/planning ideas for meals? No matter how many kids we've all got, I'll bet we could all learn a thing or two!
