Back to Normal

From last Saturday on, we have been "back to normal." The kids had their Saturday activities as scheduled (Marcie -- dance; Charlie -- basketball) and we were able to get back to church on Sunday. And.....there has been a full week of school!!!! Tonight is Family Fun Night at their elementary school beginning at 5:30PM. It will be a full evening of activities with performances by various groups in the cafetorium, vendors in the hallways, table activities, activities in the gym, and food. I didn't buy the tickets for the "dinner," which were $5 per person. I bought the arm bands for the activities and 1 free snow cone, popcorn or cotton candy. Kyle's class won the PTA membership contest so he got a game armband for free and I got a $5 refund. Guess I'll apply that to the cost of the class picture for him.

Wednesday night on the way home from church (Royal Rangers for the boys and Impact (formerly Missionettes) for the girls), the kids were talking about various things. Marcie's friend, Carly, said she heard a story about a man (then she said Jesus) who walked on water but she didn't think it was true. So, I explained the whole story but she just couldn't wrap her head around it. She insisted that it must've been a ghost because "how can people walk on water?" It was really cute!
