I've helped out with AWANAS the last
couple of years but this year was the first
"official" year I helped. It was so neat getting
to serve and watch the kids learn so many verses.
my two sparks and a cubbie!
Cubbie Time!
she was SO excited to get a cup and a bear
just like Cailey and Braden had!
Sparks Time
cookie time with friends
braden said the CUTEST thing to Dave as he was leaving.
he said, (in a sad voice) "well, I guess I'll see you when I see you"
Braden did such an amazing job this year finishing up in record time and then helping other children learn their verses. The leaders would joke around with Braden about him teaching Green Meadow (devotion) time. He couldn't wait to go each week and share his verses. He was able to learn many of them just by reading the bible. We are SO proud of you, buddy!! He went through both of his books earning everything he could as a first year Sparkie. We LOVE his leaders, Dave and Tricia!
Cailey did amazing during her last year of Sparks. She completed both books and in the three years she's been in it Cailey has earned every jewel, pin, and patch that she could earn. She also finished up VERY early and helped several other kids learn their verses weekly. I had the privilege of working in her class and saw kids go to her and say, "Cailey, will you help me learn my verses?" Great job, babe! We are SO proud of you! It was great being with Melissa and Clint for another year!
Kinsey was THRILLED to be a Cubbie this year and looked forward to going every week. Sometimes during preschool she'd sing the days of the week song and accidentally substitute "Cubbie" for "Wednesday". She truly was excited to go and asked about it DAILY. She did a great job learning her verses and always tried. Some were harder than others, but she just tried her best! We are SO proud of you, Kinsey!! She adored her teachers and will be sad to not see them at AWANAS every week. Good thing we'll still get to see them at church!
We are very proud of all three of our kiddos for learning verses and hiding God's word in their heart. I feel like we're blessed to have a program like AWANAS for them to be involved in and they just have a blast there!

so awesome that your kiddos are doing great things in the name of Jesus! Hope you are doing well!
Nice recap! I love all your pictures! It was a great year in Awana full of so many blessings. Thankfully we still get to see Miss Kinsey on Sundays since she and Emma are in the same SS class! She gave me a big pretty smile this morning!
