VBS!

Brodie went to Vacation Bible School this week and had an awesome time. He loved every minute of it! He can't wait to go back again. It was fun to see him come home each night and tell us what he did. At first he would say, "nothing" when we asked him what he did, but then eventually he would tell us Bible stories and Bible verses he had learned. I don't think he thought of it as learning, rather he was really having fun experiencing the stories (and maybe the candy they gave them to participate :)




Brodie with all of his stash for going to VBS all week!





















The boys prize for bringing in the most
school supplies for the missions part of VBS.
As you can tell, he was very happy the boys beat
the girls :)

Video cam


Brodie and Isaac love to talk to Grandma and Grandpa on the computer. It is nice that they can see and talk "in person". Here is a snapshot of a recent talk. Isaac is enjoying some corn on the cob and Brodie is laughing at something Grandpa or Grandma said.

Mexico over the years!

Here are some pictures from our previous family trips to Mexcio. I promise I will stop talking about Mexico after this (no promises that Brodie will stop taking about it :)

What a week! We have so many wonderful memories! Brodie can just not understand why we can't go back to Mexico. He told me yesterday that my hotdogs are gross and that Grandma and Grandpa's hotdogs are good. Apparently everything is better in Mexico (or better with family :)

Aquarium!

We went to the aquarium in Mexico and we all had fun! The kids loved feeding the sea lion and turtles. Isaac enjoyed the "petting zoo" the best I think.

















I miss my talks with Emma! She has grown up so fast. I feel like the time just flies when we live so far away.



Cousins!


Great friends! They had so much fun (and a little head butting) together in Mexico!


Brothers!
