Youth group Prject

Ok, I have been helping with the redecorating of our youth room. We got new t-shirts this year and the youth room is being repainted to match the shirts. It is really awesome.

My part in this - the back of the shirt tells what our youth group theme "Extreme Lives" is all about. So, instead of our wonderful artist, Mrs. Jackie, painting all those small letters, I cut them out with my cricut using an adhesive vinyl. I just finished them and turned them over to Mrs. Jackie yesterday. They will finish the letters while I am gone to North Carolina. I can't wait to see it when I get back.

Finally back

Well, it has been a very busy few months for us. It just seems I never find the time to update my blog. I have tons of pictures to upload from a few field trips we have been on. But our computer crashed last week. I am just getting things back on the hard drive.

We are leaving Friday afternoon to head to Forest City, NC for a week. My in-laws are vacationing up there and asked us to come up for Mother's Day. So we are having an early vacation this year. We are hoping to stop by my dad's place on the way up. I have to double check with him. If we can stay at his place Friday night than we will only have a 5 1/2 hour trip left on Saturday.

I am sure we will be doing some waterfall chasing again this year. I can't wait to go hiking in the woods with the kids. They need to work off some of their energy. They will still be completing some work while we are there. They kinds fell behind when I got sick a few weeks back. They decided since mom wasn't watching every move, they could take and extended spring break.... They didn't realize it would mean they would have to work through a vacation.... I bet they will get it all done next time!
