Vacation Bible School Success!!

WOW! What a hectic week! We just finished our annual Vacation Bible School and I am exhausted! It is always so much work! It was asked several times during the planning stages, "Is this worth it?" My answer? A resounding "YES!!!!" We were able to touch the lives of 38 children this year. The numbers were down this year, but still good for Southeast Idaho. The biggest joy for me is being able to see and hear the reaction to VBS from my 9 year old son. He spends the majority of his time in Nampa with his mother and unfortunately he does not attend church of any kind while there. He looks so forward every year to visiting us and going to VBS. What a treat and what a wonderful, fun opportunity to teach him the word of God! Thanks Pocatello Church of Christ for touching the lives of so many children! Do I want to do it again next year? YOU BET!!!! (I'll post pics a little later! I'm tired and I'm going to bed!)

Meet Roxy the Rottweiler!

Meet the newest edition to our family! May was a really tough month on the Fullmer/Proctor families. On Tuesday, May 6 I received a phone call from my mother indicating that my grandfather had passed away. It was a bitter/sweet time for our family. Pa was 84 years old and had lived a very long and prosperous life. God is in control of everything and decided to call Pa home. It was time. However, I woke up Wednesday morning only to find my dog Mia had also died! She was only 2! I didn't think it was her time and that was a little harder on our family and me in particular! Kenidee was my rock! Being so young and innocent, the easiest way for me to describe everything to her was to tell her that Pa needed Mia in Heaven. If you ask Kenidee, God called Pa home to give him a new body. In the 2 short years that Kenidee knew Pa, he didn't walk very well and hardly moved from his chair. Now he can run, jump and play and Mia is with him keeping him company! Kenidee's explanation of everything helped me to get through both losses! Out of the mouths of babes!

Well, all this leads up to our newest addition! Meet Roxy! The kids love her and believe it or not, Heath has actually let her in the house! Yes, in the house! Not on the carpets, mind you but in the house none the less. We'll see how long that lasts!

Kenidee loves Roxy! We can't get her to put Roxy down sometimes!

Roxy can't wait until she is too big for Kenidee to carry! Hang in there Roxy! Just a few more weeks!

It's a good thing Braden really doesn't care to hold her!

This was the only place the kids could get away from Roxy. Just like any puppy, Roxy loves to chase and bite the kids! The louder they are the more she chases them!

More puppy play!

The kids tried to climb the stairs to get away from her but she followed them. The problem? Roxy had a hard time getting back down the stairs! It was cute!

She seems so little! To bad she's going to grow up BIG!

Her teeth really do hurt!

What's going to happen when she gets bigger!?! Will Heath let her in the house?!?!??
