The Letter F

Eating Fries

and a Frosty!

Having a fun time with friends


Let me be honest...I did not get very much of this lesson plan completed! All Ava and I did today was talk about Jesus calling the fishermen to be His disciples, go swimming with friends and then have Frosties with dinner. One reason is that Ava took a 3 hour nap (yeah!). The second reason is that I had to pick up my car that was being repaired and dropping off the rental car. Though I enjoyed driving a mini van around for a week, I missed Holly the Honda! So below is the lesson plan that we should have completed. Oh well, there is always tomorrow!
