AMERIKIDS

Last night, our church family celebrated our country's freedom as well as our freedom in Christ with a children's musical called "AmeriKids" followed by BBQ and fireworks.  The children did an exceptional job singing and performing and the food was out of this world!  We are so blessed to have the freedom to gather together and worship the One True God with other believers thanks to all the men and women who have served our country! 


Waiting for the show to begin!
Abe Lincoln
Mrs. Virginia and Texas
Levi had a speaking part and he did a great job!  We are proud of you, Levi!
Claire was Massachusetts and had a large speaking part.  This is a huge leap for Claire because she has always been so shy.  She was fabulous.  It is our privilege to see how God is growing her!
Yacky knows all the facts about America!
It's a "Yack Attack!"
Ben Franklin
A great group of AmeriKids!
Our family's best friends drove an hour to come see the perfomance and celebrate with us and we were honored to have them there! 
Claire and Ava enjoying the BBQ!
The Three Musketeers.
Our best friends.
Due to the VERY DRY conditions we had a firetruck on standby for the fireworks.  After the show, he wet the grass down to keep sparks from igniting.
Who needs a waterslide when you have a firetruck?  Our kids couldn't resist getting wet and ended the night on a high note!  You should have heard the squeals and giggles....pure delight!

Happy 4th of July!
God Bless America!
