Memorial Day

Here are the kids patiently waiting for the Parade to make it's way into the cemetary!
Here comes Adrian along with fellow Boy Scouts marching in the parade.
He is the third one in from the left, wearing the yellow wolf cub bandana.... This is where he stood for the entire hour long service, and did a remarkable job too I must say!
I was VERY proud of him!
The closing of the Memorial Day service! I must say this was the first time I have even attended such a celebration, and it was such a good lesson for both the kids and I. All branches of the military were represented, and the kids had tons of questions for me following the service. I sure wish I had ALL the answers, but I gave it my best! Daddy is always better at answering those difficult questions! We sure miss our Daddy, and are very proud of him for all that he does! Although he is not away at war, we can still somewhat relate to those military families who are making sacrifices each and every day for the best interest of our country! THANK you to all members of the military for ALL that you have done, and continue to do for the good of our country and beyond.
Finally, a brief visit with Hailey Grace before returning back home. Adrian insisted that he leave his flag behind for her, and Jayden said a prayer all on her own! She did a remarkable job too! Moments like these.... I will forever cherish!

Vacation Bible School

High Seas Expedition VBS
"Captain" Pastor Jackie leading the kids in worship, songs, and prayer!
(80 children participated in VBS and there were 35 teen and adult helpers)
Our crew (Ebertowskis and Parkers...minus one) on deck!
Our whole crew on deck the first day of VBS!

This was the day Mommy left one crying Jaxon at his preschool table, but when I returned to pick him up he didn't want to leave. Day two when I dropped off, they didn't even want me to walk them in the church! :( This kind of made me sad at first, but what a GREAT feeling that they were so excited to return for more Bible School FUN!

The girls with their little brother, Carter!
"Anchors Aweigh"
The final day of VBS the kids put on a program for parents and grandparents to show off all the cool things they learned and the kids shared some of their songs with us as well. A picnic lunch for family and friends concluded the awesome week! The kids had a BLAST this week, and can't wait til they can return next year for another week of FUN learning about God's word! THANKS to all who made this VBS program such a HUGE success! Job Well Done!

Sprinkler Fun!






It is so nice to finally be able to enjoy summer a little bit now that the weather has decided to cooperate! The kids had a blast cooling off while playing in their crazy sprinkler. Now once the outdoor pool finally opens... it will REALLY feel like summer!

Picnic in the Park




Well Mommy didn't get any pictures while we were eating our picnic lunch because she was too busy keeping our food from blowing away with the ND wind. She did however, snap these two photos of us with our good friends before leaving the park. Mommy sure LOVES having her summers off with us so that we can do fun things together. This picnic kicks off the beginning of all the summer FUN that is in store for us! Stay tuned for more!
