The Hackney Four....

...will see you next week!

VBS Week

It's Vacation Bible School time for us. It's been a hot one. However the rec people have done a good job keeping everyone cool. I saw a lot of soaking wet kids today....including mine. I'm helping with registration and check in and also teaching pre-school music. It's been a great time. 202 in attendance today. A couple quick photos....I realized today that I have not snapped any of jr. high, so Aaron's nowhere to be found in these.

Fun at the Fair

Super Fun Sunday

Got our week kicked off right with a great morning at church.  The kids choir presented the VBS musical and all of the kids did a great job.  Vacation Bible School starts bright and early tomorrow at 9AM.

Rachel had a small solo part during one of the songs.

This evening we made our yearly trip out to the Hendricks County fair.  I had entered 4 of my photographs in the Home and Family Arts show.  Two of them won reserve champion for their respective categories.  Next year we're going for one of those purple Champion ribbons. :)

Pretty Pretty Princess

I recently got the dress that I wore as a flower girl in my aunt's wedding down out of the attic.  I was about Rachel's age when I wore it.  Rachel (who loves all things girly) was thrilled to say the least.

She's wore it, twirled around in it, and declared that she's going to marry the prince. :)

Sunset

So hot we barely ventured outside today.  I went out long enough to photograph the clouds at sunset.  And then I booked it back into the A/C.!
