Letter of the Day R

R is for Reds our favorite baseball team! This summer we have seen the Reds play 3 times and nearly every night on TV. Trey has continued every night to pray for players on the DL to get better. He sleeps with a Joey Votto doll. I think we are raising him right!

Joey had golf practice at the "Range" today so we decided to tag-a-long. Trey enjoyed putting after practice with daddy.

Tonight dinner was "Ravioli and Red Kool-Aid". Yummy! The picture looks yucky but it tasted great. We paid a little over a dollar a bag for Ravioli at Target using a mobile coupon.

Today's words: Reds, road, range

Tonight's Bible Story was the parting of the Red Sea with daddy. Trey loves this story. Mommy read the story "Hole in the Roof" when a paralyzed man was lowered from the roof to Jesus.

Letter of the Day Q

Today's letter of the Day is Q...an often neglected letter of the alphabet. Today's words of the day were: quick, quiet, quesadilla, and quarter.

We practiced being "quiet" at the movies today. We watched the $1 children series movie at the Gem: The Lorax. Trey loved it and it was the first movie all 3 of us got to go this year.


Trey did some "quick" pedaling today on his bicycle. He continues to improve on riding.

Tonight's Bible Story was Queen Esther. That was the first time we had read that story to Trey. It was a nice change from lion and giant stories!

Letter of the Day P

P is for Pizza! On our way home from worship and teaching at church today we stopped and picked up a box of pizza from our new favorite pizza, Jets. We had pizza for lunch and dinner...that's our kind of leftovers for dinner!




Today's foods were: pizza, Popsicles, and popcorn

Today at church in the Children's ministry (Connect Christian Church), the story was about Daniel not being afraid to pray. The lesson about praying was perfect for our letter P day!

Tonight's Bible stories were about Paul and Pharoah. Our 2 Letter P characters could not be more different. I love Trey's smile looking at his Bible!

Letter of the day O

Ostrich
Chicken Noodle O's
Today was a fun family day at the Zoo and ironically the letter O appears twice in Zoo! We had a great day with Grammy, Papa, Jimmy, Ethan, and Amy. We were able to see some Ostriches while at the zoo.

Today's food was Chicken Noodle O's for dinner. We were not creative with our food options and forgot to pick up some Oreos as a snack. Overall, today was a fun family day!

Letter of the Day M

Today was another busy but fun summer day with a Splash Pad Playdate. This week Grammy has Vacation Bible School at her church, so Trey and Jay went tonight.

Today's foods were: Meatballs and Macaroni and Cheese

The cousins had a great time playing together, eating, and going to VBS...we are truly blessed they get to spend time and grow up together! I love how they both had to take turns praying at dinner.

Tonight's Bible Story was about Mary and Baby Jesus.

HT Super Doubles Day 2

Today was a quick trip and unfortunately I left some of my coupons at home. As usual some of the shelves were empty but that is to be expected.

Today's total was $1.60...and saved $45 dollars. Day 2 complete...not sure when I will go again because I'm running out of coupons to use. The boys were excited to get some tomatoes that were on mark down for .99 cents.
