Summer Week 2 - Dawson VBS & Swimming

The 2nd week of summer, Jake spent the week at Mimi & Granddad's (Rob's parents). He attended their church's (Dawson Memorial) Vacation Bible School.
Staying at Mimi & Granddad's means getting to do fun stuff -
like staying up watching movies and play with lightsabers 
 He also had his first bike wreck. He ran into a mailbox. He was okay, but scratched up his hand pretty badly (according to him).

 Ready for VBS!



Sister bear was home with us. On Tuesday, her class had water day on the splash pad.


Here is a picture from their daycare Facebook page!

Wednesday evening, Hollon & I went to see Jake in their VBS program. We got to hear the songs and Bible verses they had been learning and see some of the crafts they were making.

One of Hollon's favorite things is to play in the back of the car. She lays down & says she is going night-night....


...she bosses me around....


...it is evidently just so much fun in the back of mom's car!

She also likes to sit in Jake's seat

She was wanting me to turn on Curious George 

She kept hitting the remote with her hand trying to get it to work

TGIF! 
Wearing her "school" tee shirt. I had it paired with a denim skirt. Unfortunately her short little legs make the skirt hit at an awkward spot. She looks like a little Pentecostal girl. 

Saturday, Dad brought out a fun surprise for the kids.... a huge blowup pool!
(It doesn't take much to surprise our kids)




Later in the day, our neighbors joined us

Poor Jake
Not only is he several years older, he is the only boy!
Thankfully, he just loves having someone to play with (and boss around)




We added the canopy during the hottest part of the day 


We also brought out the sprinkler




Oh Hollon.....
She loves makeup. I gave her some old makeup to play with. For the longest time, she didn't realize you had to twist up the lipstick to make the color come out. Collins quickly let her know that lipstick is more awesome if you actually see the color. It didn't take Hollon long to catch on. I walked in on this....

She would stare at herself in the dressing table mirror



Hollon believes that lipstick triples as blush and eye shadow as well.

Finished product:

Sunday after church we played a little more in the pool







And we ended the day with popsicles
