Last week was exciting! Uncle Paul was here all week and let's just say he is NOT a morning person.

The boys had Vacation Bible School all week, which culminated in a big show on Friday. Then I baked cupcakes for J's birthday and his class sang to him. They even got him a birthday present. It was Play-
Doh, which is his favorite thing to play with at
VBS and Sunday School.

The boys posed for me after I picked them up on Friday. Well, if you can call THAT posing...

Here's J (still in his
VBS shirt from the previous day) on the morning of his birthday. He and M got these cool wooden pirate swords that they love!

Can you see a theme here? This was a gift from Uncle Paul. J is loving anything to do with pirates right now!
