Fun AT Flash Game

We had a lot of fun at the Flash game. Flash won the Stamped by a long way. It was a lot of fun.

Oreo doesn't want to miss out on the fun!!!

Now that Joelle is Jr. High she gets to go to dances. A couple of weeks ago some of the 8th grade girl's came into the PE classes and gave dance lessons. I have been to JR High Dances and they can be very boring but at Declo they are great fun. They have alot of group dances and boy ask girl and girl ask boy dances and most everybody joins in the fun. Joelle had a great time at her first dance. My only question is, " Is she old enough to go to dances?" What do you think?

More Haloween Fun

Haloween---It's scarry out there!!!!!

Here are all of the spooks and goblins. It was a beautiful day, the warmest Haloween in a long time. We had a treasure hunt and then pinned the nose on the jack-o lantern, toss the pumpkin, and a cupcake walk. After all of that fun we went to the trunk or treat. Joelle was a great Declo Queen. Kaitlyn was olympic gymnist Shaun Johnson and Rachel was a disco dancer. Lauren was a Flower for her first Haloween. Abbey was a very funky princess. Gracie was Jasmine, Hannah was a Spanish Dancer, I think I have seen her on Dancing with the stars, notice her black hair. Lydia was Cinderella and Hillary was Tinkerbell and Amy was a cute bee. Carter was Jack Sparrow. Tyler was a basketball player, and Trey was a football player. Luke was Yoda from Star Wars. Wyatt was very proud of his spiderman costume and Trevor was a great cowboy with Kyle.

A few more pictures from Israel.

Our trip began in Telavive and the second night we spent in Nazareth. We then went on to the Sea of Galilee and finished going through the desert and spending three days in Jerusalem. Here is a picture of the Valley of Armagedon, a view of the Sea of Galilee from the top of the Golan Heights, and Alan and Steve riding a camel in Jerusalem.

Home from Israel

We had a wonderful time in Israel. It was a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget. I am only posting a few pictures but we will be happy share all of our pictures with anyone who has a desire to see them. These pictures are from our last day. The first is from the top of the Mount of Olives looking down on Jerusalem, the second is at the Garden of Gethsemane, and the third is the Garden Tomb.
