Book it!


Yesterday was the annual Non-Halloween party at the Lee house. This year, since we had a book theme, we were supposed to dress as book characters.

Since the boys have been really into Peter Pan lately, we went as Peter and his crew.
It was a lot of fun piecing all the costumes together with things we already had at home plus a few thrift store purchases.

Maggi was Madeline and Mary Kate was a Star Trek person. She took the easy way out 🙂

Marissa showed up dressed as Peter Pan. Miranda was her shadow. Cute idea!

There were other cute costumes that I failed to photograph. I wish I was better about it but it becomes difficult to photograph everything when you have kids to watch.

We get one more use out of these costumes this week!

Family Camp


So, as I mentioned before–I don’t have many pictures of family camp. I failed in that department.

But as always, it was a great weekend to make memories with my family and church family.
It was fun this year that Liam was able to participate in so much (slip & slide, flour dodgeball, pew races, and the foot race.)
And Don and I even did the 3 legged race—and may I add, we made a good team.
The worship was wonderful. One of the things that stuck out to me was Scott’s message on Philippians 4. Contentment. Something I know I struggle with when it comes to Don’s work schedule. And our house. It was a convicting, yet encouraging sermon. I know The Lord is sovereign and has us where He wants us. I just need His help to trust Him.
Don’t worry, Don’s Tilley hat was borrowed.

And I stole this from Maggi’s blog because I thought it was cute. Kai and Penople. Kai claims his walk with Maggi and Penelope was his favorite part of family camp.

We recovered quickly this year. Now I have my wisdom teeth removal to look forward to. But not before Billy and Sarah’s wedding!!
