Visiting Daddy

Today we visited Daddy at work. He was surprised to say the least. It was a bit overwhelming to see all those kids (big kids) watch you as you walk in! I felt so nervous at first, but they were good! :) (I am used to the little ones that love their teachers and hug them still!)

Anyhow, we hung out for awhile and left to get lunch and came back to eat with Daddy! It was fun! (It's Halloween, so it's okay to visit on those crazy days!) ;)

Rachel wanted to do the warm-up assignment too!

Rachel telling Daddy where to sit!

(Soon she realized that Daddy's in charge when he's at work!--

"something tell's me we're not in Kansas anymore!?")Daddy working hard to teach the kids about the Water Cycle!

(I was even clueless at what the answers were!)Rachel sitting down quietly while the kids worked on their assignments- she wanted to do exactly what the big kids did. She even would get off her chair, but as soon as she heard Daddy's booming voice, she'd run back to her spot!) :)

La Cantera for lunch

We (Lala, Rachel and I) went to La Cantera to eat lunch yesterday after bible study/bible class. :) It was so nice out we walked and walked and .... SANG ("lalalalallalalallalalaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!")
and DANCED
and touched the water of the water fountain...
and watched and listened to the soothing water...
and posed for a picture for mommy! :)

We had a blast. Mom was just mentioning yesterday what a blessing it is to just be able to have a lunch date like that and be able to walk around afterwards and enjoy the beautiful day and not have to worry about rushing back to work AND at the same time bonding with my daughter and mom. :) God is blessing me so much. He is AWESOME! :) Thank you Lord!!! :)

Bible Class Fun!

I wanted to upload some pics of Rachel's Bible Class Carnival (so-to-speak). :) She had a blast dressing up as an A&M cheerleader (eventhough, they don't really have cheerleaders, but yell boys.) Oh well, it's all for Daddy! :)

Here goes...

Rachel is carrying her "goodie basket" of treats to give to her class. She has her jacket on b/c it was quite cool this morning. :) She really looks like a cheerleader before her performance. :)She is walking to class to see Ms. Judy (her teacher) and get ready for the fun times ahead!

I snuck in to take some pics of the fun, but she was too distracted to play once I was there, so I left in a hurry after I took a few pics only.

Here she caught me behind the door when they were playing the "Cake Walk" game. :) She was walking off instead of staying on the colored squares. When we picked her up, she wanted to show us her classes booth. It was a fishing booth and it was too cute! Here she is pointing to the fish. (Do you see our little artist's masterpiece around her neck!? She made that jack-o-lantern all by herself- well, with some help!) ;)

Overall, it seemed like she had tons of fun. :) She was really tired yesterday, but happy to have had the chance to participate in such an entertaining activity. :) I need to post some more pics of what we did afterwards later! :)
