We have three kittens left and a pregnant momma.
This kitten has about three names it gets called. We're a little confused about names because each of us came up with names along the way, and it doesn't seem we ever reached a unified consensus, or if we did, some of us don't remember and so it gets called whatever comes to mind. He's a mixture of friendly and scaredy-cat. He likes to be around us but also is skittish if we try to get near. And if he does allow us near, he's quite generous with his claws.
At an event at the Vandalia Fairgrounds.
The boys went to Preacher Boy Camp a few weeks ago. There were only a handful of boys, so they all stayed in the Lodge and had classes and everything in the Lodge.
Practicing their sermon.
Preaching the sermon at a church nearby.
Jonathan preached at our church again this past Sunday as well. He's been preaching or teaching just about every Sunday this summer. Great job, boys!
These little sweat bees have been abundant this summer. They like the minerals in sweat, so they just land on you and lick your skin. They very rarely sting and if they do sting, it's like the lightest of stings. They don't build a hive but live in the ground. Now that I know they won't sting, I just leave them be unless it's too ticklish. They're kind of cute.
Harrison and friends at the Bartison home again.
Phoebe started working at a grocery store in a town nearby. She has friends who work there, so that's kind of fun. Working at Subway was a little tough because she was usually working alone; this should be a step up.
We celebrated Mimi and her birthday!
Phoebe drew these sea creatures which I cut out for VBS. Harrison helped with some tracing too.
We were part of the kitchen crew for VBS.
Harrison and Phoebe helped out there, and Jonathan was around to be used as needed as well.
We have a full meal each night and Michelle Kurz has been the one leading in the kitchen each year I've been here. She plans some yummy meals! Carlene and Jennifer were also there each night, and they're a lot of fun to work with.
Jonathan is choking out the... shark? I'm not sure what creature that is. A fish maybe.
Such a funny sight, this little cloud was.
