Our Summer Trip

Finally after of a summer of saving money and working hard at Obasi our much anticipated summer trip was here. We decided to go explore Columbus Nebraska, it is full of history and a great water park. Taj crosses the alligator pond.

The Big kids loved the toilet bowl.

Fun in the sun.

Our traditional dinner at a chinese buffet

The next day we made our own waffles

Then off to the Y for some fun.

For lunch we ate at a cool restaurant

And then took a tour of them making rootbeer. We found out the rootbeer goes all over the state, even to Lincoln, at Skeeter Barnes Restaurant.

We had to check out this cool boat invention, to help in the war to get big things across rivers.

Home again, it was a great trip.

Week of August 7th

This week our hero of faith is David. Our theme is: We aren't limited by our age or size. We can still serve the Lord. Our memory verse 1 Timothy 4:12 You are young, but do not let anyone treat you as if you were not important. Be an example to show the believers how they should live. Show them with your words, witht the way you live, with your love, with your faith, and with your pure life. It is a really good verse to remind us to be an example regardless of our age or size. It was a really long verse so we spent a lot of time trying to learn it through a index card team game.

We tried out our own sling shot skills with water balloons.
