This morning, we had breakfast and then headed to church.  Brother Arthur needed a ride.  So, Joe dropped us off at church and went to get Brother Arthur.  Several kids had gotten in along the way. Someone had parked in front of the gate again.  By the time Joe got back with Brother Arthur though, they had moved along.  

Kristine taught the six and under Sunday school class, and I taught them for junior church.  There were thirty-two in that class for junior church today.  I made the mistake of buying suckers that have a whistle in the stick.  Have you ever heard thirty whistles blowing at once?  It is not a very pleasant experience!  : )

We came home and ate lunch.  We got a short rest in before Bible club.  We started out with six but ended up with twenty-one children by the end of the hour.    We sang a couple more songs after the lesson since a few kids got there after the lesson was over.  Kristine came to Bible club too.  We have decided to try moving the Bible club to Saturday afternoon at 4:00.  Having it on Sunday afternoon makes for a very busy Sunday.  So, we'll see how that works next week.  We told all of the kids today about the change in the day and time.  

Gilbert is doing very well at learning the verses.  He quoted several from memory today by himself.  Danny didn't want to wake up from his nap; so, he wasn't out there the whole time today.  We just let Bonnie sleep so that she wouldn't be a bear.

We had our traditional Sunday afternoon chocolate shakes.  Then, we headed back to church.  There were twenty at church tonight.  Joe preached a good sermon.  He got another fishing story in; the boys liked that.

After supper, we watched "Song of the South" with Kristine.  She hadn't seen it before.  Gilbert really likes that movie.  He kept trying to tell her what was going to happen next.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
