June and July

The last time I blogged we were getting ready for our movie night. It was a success I think, until there was some type of power surge in the neighborhood and we had an unplanned intermission.  We watched Fireproof and we had a really great youth turnout.

Our 7 year old niece Mikah came up for a week to spend with us to go to our VBS. She came over 4th of July. She helped me decorate my Flag Cake. We had a few couples over to help us eat. I however was sick in bed but I heard it was great.

Joe came in the bedroom after lunch and we were talking. But, Annie was surprisingly quiet wherever she was. Joe went into the kitchen and found this:

 Finally, it was our VBS week. We had over 100 kids through our church doors. Although I think my favorite part was seeing Joe in the dunk tank during the Carnival Friday!

Soon we will have so more updates!

Roller Coasters

After I posted last night, Joe and I took the bench on our front porch and moved it to the driveway to watch North Vernon's fireworks. I must say that I was impressed for the town this size and the display. Everytime we thought it was over more fireworks would shoot off. However we left the TV on and right when we came back inside the Louisville news was showing the fireworks there and then maybe I wasn't as impressed!

Today Joe and I drove to Louisville and went to Kentucky Kingdom. We have season passes that we have yet to use so we finally made our first trip. First we stopped at Southern Seminary because Joe needed something for VBS that starts on Monday and I bought a piano music book since I am music-less. So excited! It was a little rough for my husband because the park opened at 11 and we did not get in until 12:15. He said that he felt like half the day was gone! Maybe it was because someone would not get up this morning (that would be me) We rode the roller coasters and today was one of the first times I did not feel so good on them. I choose a calmer ride on the Ferris Wheel, I mean Giant Wheel as Joe likes to correct me.


Here is us on the Giant Wheel



















We were only there a few hours but I don't think we felt obligated to ride everything one million times because we knew we could come back!

Then we ate at Cheddar's where I tried Chicken Tortilla Soup for the first time. Yum! I am hunting for the recipe for that. But now I must study for my nursing boards which I am taking July 24th...ahh!
