The Grand Finale!

Amera worked on shields and swords all day long!  

Her brother and sisters were very appreciative of her efforts!

  This was the night for dressing up like knights!  Since Javier had boxes at work that we could use to make costumes, I dropped him off at work and took the opportunity to get some much needed groceries afterwards.  The kids enjoyed having boxes to play in and made little "houses".  This has been quite an unusual week for our living room.  We kept "King Arthur" (the knight statue) in our living room during non club times.  We kept getting a little startled from time to time as we would think someone strange was standing there!  We all adjusted to having things a little out of the ordinary, but I must say the blessings of this week far surpassed any minor inconveniences we may have had.  We loved doing this!  And I know we wouldn't hesitate to do it again.

Anyone who came dressed up was in the costume contest.

This is the girl that won!!

Josh made his dramatic appearance just as Amanda and I were beginning to wonder where he was!

Knight?  Robot?  Transformer?  We weren't exactly sure, but he looked great!

Cross to the other side and don't get tagged!

Manny was dubbed "The Hawaiian Knight"!

Clara was a princess among a multitude of knights!

   The kids were delighted to have a chance to strum on Josh's guitar while he played the chords and sang "Jesus Loves Me", "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star", or "Happy Birthday".  

Amanda reviewed the Armor of God from Ephesians 6, and went over practical ways in which we use it.

Pause.  Insert sweet mother-daughter moment...ok moving on!  : )

The children who brought at least two visitors won the opportunity to pick a leader and 

PIE THEM!!
