Happenings

Life around my household for the past 2 weeks has been controlled chaos.

Seriously.

First week in June, J and I went to the Saddle Ridge Ranch. We had a BLAST! I did all of the song motions and 3rd grade arts and crafts. J did..well I have no idea what his exact title was but 12 kids gave their lives to Jesus that week! YAHOO! Here's a recap of our week at SSR.

Here's J and I in my arts and crafts class making brand bracelets.


This is what my church calls the "foot praising ministry" aka motions/dancing within a church setting. Along side the pastors wife, we did the motions to all of the VBS songs ALL week!
On stage leading...Please note our homemade VBS shirts :)


Leading motions for other directors :)


Here are my sweet friends that I hung out with all week. Love them.


Moving on two our next event. Dodgeball Tournament.



Oh yeah. It's been quite a long time since I've played Dodgeball, but I signed up for a team and it turned out to be a very fun and quite eventful evening. I played on a team of adults/older teenagers from the cafe and J played on a staff team called the "Staff Infection"



My team; the Cafe Team and the Champ of our bracket!!!


J's team; the Staff Infection and the Champs of their bracket!!!
Here's their full costume pre-tournament picture


And here's their winning picture. Look how is still in full costume :)


J and I were exhausted afterwards, but it was so much fun!

This last week was Jr. High camp, J was gone for a few day to kids camp and next week is high school camp. Whew! Summer is flying by.

A camp update will come soon :)

Happy Summer :)

Sitting

So for the past week, J and I have been dog, guinea pig and house sitting. At first it was fun, but now it's created a problem.

I want a dog and a house of my own.

The problem is our landowner won't allow pets except for fish (but I don't want fish) and J and I aren't sure if a house is the next step in our life or if we should remain content. Not to mention that guinea pigs are a lot of work. I mean this thing eats only Romain lettuce, half of an apple, hay, feed and water. All of this stuff like 4 times a day or something. It's so much work. Not to mention that it lives in a cage. And we know that cages don't clean themselves. So there's no way I would like cleaning out that nasty cage. Guinea pigs are too much for the McKaskle's to handle.

But going back to a dog. I don't think that you all understand how bad I want a cute, little, snuggly, sweet puppy. Listen, growing up I got a puppy for my 13th birthday and Addie became my sweet baby; until I got married. Ya see Addie is super high maintenance, she takes after her Momma, not to mention she has become attached to my Daddy's hip. There's no way I could take her away from him or him away from her. So I need a puppy that will become apart of J and I's family.

J got a black lab when he was still a bachelor, but let's face it Daisy is an outside dog and she sheds WAY too much to be inside my cozy home.

I want a puppy medium size, possibly adopted, but small enough to stay inside snuggled up with me.

I mean is that too much to ask?

So I've got to come up with a plan.

I need a puppy.

Soon.
