Farewell Awanas

Here's a pic of our most recent year-end awards ceremony.  The kids have participated in a neighboring church's Awanas program for several years now but recently decided that they would like to try the youth group at our church instead.  This would be my daughter's last year as a "spark" (grades K-2) anyway so it seems like a good year to change.  I am looking forward to their new adventure but will miss the good leaders and friends they have made at Awanas. 

His Good Luck Outfit

My little prince charming has decided that his fireman outfit is "lucky".  That means that for most occasions it makes the attire appropriate.  He wears it to the super market, the swimming pool (although I don't allow it IN the pool), and even sleeps in it sometimes.  So it was no surprise when recently he decided to wear it fishing with Daddy.  It obviously worked because they caught fish.  Although the fishing luck may also be due to their tradition of kissing any fish they catch before they throw them back.  These two traditions are independently cute, but when I caught a picture of them simultaneously in action it was priceless.
