Luke Star Student

Luke had a special visitor to his classroom..Rosco. He had been waiting all year for his chance to bring Rosco in to show his class. He has told many stories about Rosco and his teacher also has the same kind of dog! Rosco did tricks and let the kids pet him. He also had fun eating the crumbs off the classroom floor.

Christmas Season 2018

Christmas Chapel

Preschool Christmas Program..hard to see Caleb praying

Rosco

Some updated pictures of Rosco. The big event this month was that he got "fixed" over Christmas break. He finally got his cone off and is back to his normal self. The kids still love him and he will tell them when he has had enough. He is full grown now too.

Sits and watches you eat, no barking though so that is good by me.

Ryan's buddy

Levi and Luke took him for a walk down the dirt road..then they got to give him a bath. 

Happy Birthday cake to Erin

Playground Duty

I have been doing playground duty for the last couple of years. Caleb has been my helper. I like to see the kids in action and took pictures of the verses on the playground equipment as a good reminder the other day. Hopefully, good verses to try to memorize this year. This was in December, so warm and little snow this year.

Fall Family Pictures

Mom and Dads 40th Anniversary

We had a fun night out as adults celebrating Mom and Dad's anniversary. We went out first to have a celebration shot and then when out to the Hearthstone in Muskegon. Mom and dad had the menu planned out for us. We gave them a memory book with pictures and things we have learned about their marriage. It was a nice night to celebrate all they mean to us.

Box Sale

This fall I was thinking of some ways to have a little extra cash and came up with selling rustic pallet boxes. Ryan worked hard making over 200 boxes which we sold on FB marketplace and at some craft shows. It was a fun way to have some extra Christmas money.
