Vacation Bible School (VBS) 2009

Two weeks ago we attended VBS at our church for a whole week. It was tons of fun for the little ones! They learned all about Moses in Egypt, the plagues, Israel's deliverance and the crossing of the Red Sea. Here we see Kiara and Aidan (9 days apart) "socializing" for a few minutes.

Story time with Teacher Belinda

One of the activities: the crossing of the Red Sea

All Preschoolers going to the Fellowship Hall to finish off the day with songs of praise

Croatian Extravaganza in Sacramento

Our closest friends invited us to attend the 27th Annual Croatian Extravaganza in Sacramento this year. Suzana is from Croatia and it was a real treat to get more acquainted with her culture and people. Here is Brianna all excited about the trip and dressed up with her Croatian shirt and socks. Suzana, in turn, is wearing the Argentine soccer team shirt.

Here is a pic of the program

A view of the Croatian Cultural Center lawn and garden where the festivities were held. We arrived in the afternoon, ate delicious traditional food, met new friends and waited for the evening program to start

By the time we sat down for a late lunch, all the tables were full. Croatian people are very friendly and lively. Bibi couldn't walk two steps without someone commenting on how beautiful Kiara was. Lea and Brianna played together wonderfully and listened to Croatian music.

Here is a video of the fun time we had... of course, Brianna hit the dance floor at the first opportunity...

Brianna had a quick message to Abu Ivon & Abu Daniel... "We'll see you in a few weeks!"

We recently went down to see the Amanecer Vocal Group sing at the Crystal Cathedral. It was a great weekend and the group sang wonderfully! Here's a video of their tribute on Memorial Day weekend. (Sorry the sound quality is not very good. This was videoed on our little camera)

HAPPY SABBATH, EVERYONE!!

Kiara Charlisse, 2 months old

Litte Gym Graduation

Last week Brianna graduated from her "Super Bugs" class at the Little Gym. They had a really cute ceremony with a podium, balloons and medals. She's been sporting hers around, so proud of her accomplishment.

And so are we!!! She's growing up and developing into an absolutely beautiful little girl inside and out. Thank God for our little super bug!

Go Rawhide!!

Our good friend Dave Anderson took Jeremy & Brianna to the Visalia Rawhide AAA baseball game on Wednesday. What a GREAT evening "at the old ball game."

Brianna was very enamored with Tipper, the mascot, and loved all the cheers, chants and songs.

And the home team even won by 9 to 4! Thanks Dave for a great evening.

Awesome Nature at Hume Lake

These ducks came straight out of the water towards us and were unafraid of hanging out by the stroller.

Beautiful deer family sitting by the path we were walking (our whole family did the loop on the lake, about 2.5 miles). We couldn't believe our luck! Brianna was so excited she wanted to go up and pet them.
