BA's 6th Birthday

Happy Birthday, BA!

It's really hard to believe that BA just turned 6...but as much as I don't want to believe it, I know it's true. He has grown and matured so much over the past few years. He always amazes me with the questions he asks and the things he says. This year for his birthday he actually asked me for a surprise party. He even planned it all out for me...he said he wanted a tiger party, a blue cake, and water balloons. Not too hard, right?! Yeah, it was hard to pull off because he is such a smart little boy! He ended up with a tiger cake and a water party (complete with water balloons, slip-n-sides, and kiddie pools). The morning of the party his Grandma came and picked him up for breakfast. During that time we scurried around and got all of his decorations and food ready. When they pulled up, he was definitely surprised! As everyone started singing to him, he took off running- didn't even hear all of "Happy Birthday." BA said he knew there were water balloons and he ran to get his swimsuit. He enjoyed himself so much...and I think his friends did too! Happy 6th Birthday, BA!

Vacation Bible School 2012

Enjoying his 1st VBS

This year's VBS was lots of fun. It was full of a lot of firsts...like Lil G's first VBS, the first time BA and CJ were in separate classes, and many others. The children loved every night of it, and they all enjoyed different parts of it too. BA preferred the missions class; CJ preferred the crafts; EE preferred the music. It seems like un understatement to say that EE liked music. She would have stayed in that class all night if she was allowed. I'll try to post a video of her dancing in there soon. Anyway, they are all already looking forward to the next VBS. Until then, I'll be hearing songs from this past year. "Everybody say Yes....Yes....to V-B-S..."
