The picture on the right is of Mackenzie and some of her classmate on the last day of school at her awards assembly.



Adam Michael Stone and Amber are great friends. They have been in preschool, MOPS and church together. They act they have known each other since birth.
It is cute to watch the two of them interact. Earlier in the year they talked about marriage. I think they have other plans now.

Well, school is out and the DeLong family is off and running. We left immediately after Mackenzie's award assembly and took off for Grandma DeLong's house. Grandma was still down state so we beat her home. We enjoyed three nights there. The girls had a few firsts. They rode in the paddleboat all by themselves. They even took Peach for a boat ride. Mackenzie also learned how to skip rocks.
Friday Night Steve and I helped another MOPS group with a MOPS and POPS night out. It was fun and some of them from their steering team will be coming to Immanuel in the Fall to help us with a MOPS and POPS night out.
Saturday we did a little work at the church during the work day. Steve worked on the computers adding memory and other misc. stuff while Tracey and the girls did some painting. The girls really wanted to help so we tried to give them some things to do. They picked up rocks out of the parking lot and pulled weeds. I believe it is important to let the kids work on projects just like the adults.
Sunday was another great day. Pastor Mark is an excellent preacher. Something that hit me this morning was the fact that I'm guilty at times of telling God how he should answer my prayers. Okay...I'm going to work on this. Let God know my need but let him work it out according to his plan.
Tonight we had a great time at the Klein's. I'm not sure what the girls enjoyed the most. The slip and slide..trampoline...playing ball...our just having fun with friends. Steve and I enjoyed ourselves too.
Thanks Klein family we had a wonderful night.
Like I said we are off and running. Tomorrow we head to North Branch for the week. I'm working while the girls are in Bible School. We are staying with my parents. Hopefully we will have some great pool time. I'll try to take my camera and post pictures next weekend.

Sad we missed out on the Klein's but we did have a great time with the youth group, although I think I fell down one too many times in Capture the Flag. My muscles are telling me I am not a teenager anymore. Enjoy your week! Sounds fun!

I know what you mean about not feeling like a teenager anymore.
VBS is going great. Record number first day attendance of 70 something. The kids are having fun. I'm home for a quick visit then back to NB.
