AWANA is great!!!

Last Wednesday Alena had her year end Awana celebration. She had a big smile while singing the cubbie song as loudly as possible. My sewing skills are really improving with all the patches she keeps earning for the verses she has memorized! She is the cutest cubbie ever!


Hannah could hardly wait for her Sparks ceremony. She kept working on her Hiker book, trying to memorize her last few verses and finish her prayers for her missionaries. She kept telling me that it was only a few more days until her "special day". She was so excited that we were all going to be there to see her, that there was going to be pizza, that she might get her second book award, etc., etc., etc.! It was an exciting night for Hannah, she received several awards including a trophy for Sparkie of the Year. She has memorized so much scripture this year and we are so proud of her!

I decided a while ago that I would start getting up at 6:00 so I would have enough time to do some real Bible study. The girls soon caught on and started getting up with me, so I would have them do AWANA while I studied. Hannah was pretty self-sufficient since she can read, but I had to spend a good deal of time with Alena, but it was real quality time that I will always treasure.
