The little ones have been working on their verses too. James 1:19-20 "Let everyone be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger. For the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God."
Matt seems to be a little conjunction happy.
Don't you love the way she searches for the right words and then finds them?! Or is it just because I'm her daddy!?

The Lord's Prayer
In the mornings, Sandy has been working on teaching the boys and girl the Lord's prayer.
This is the Lord's Prayer rock star version.
Here's the sweet version.
And of course, the cute version!

Basketball
The first thing Andrew does when he gets up and the last thing he does before he goes to bed is shoot baskets on his indoor nerf hoop. We've had it for about 2 years - that's about 200 years in nerf years. It shows.
Even duct tape couldn't keep that thing alive. So with the money Andrew earned from picking up rocks in our yard, he purchased a new hoop. He's loving it. He's usually re-creating the Lakers 2009 championship season or the UCLA Bruins 1995 championship season!
Of course, the little ones get the hand me down hoop...they're still working on their fundamentals!

SPARKS!
Andrew memorized his Sparks (Kindergarten - 2nd grade) verses for Awana tonight. Every letter in Sparks has a corresponding word and Bible verse. I'm glad that he's enjoying it.
S - Savior
P - Power
A - According to the Scriptures
R - Raised
K - Keep
S - Saved

Pain Givers HQ
Little did I know that our basement has become a Head Quarters for the Pain Givers. I guess Andrew is the president of this organization.
And of course, boys are the only ones allowed to be pain givers. If I were a boy, I wouldn't want it any other way.
This sign says, "Known as the tower of pain." I promise, we are not torturing the boy nor are we letting him watch any Friday the 13th movies.

Children's Farm
Yesterday, we drove to the Deanna Rose Children's Farm near Kansas City. It was a gorgeous and fun day, and it was FREE!
We panned for precious stones.
Andrew milked a cow.
If it looks like Matt was a little hesitant to go near the cow, it's because he was.
We explored a teepee.
We rode mini-tractors.This goat really liked Sandy.
And we fed the fish. They were CRAZY hungry!
