Joshua (July 5,2009)

This last Sunday we learned about Joshua and the battle of Jericho. We got to pretend to be the Israelites and march around our Lego wall 7 times! The kids made their own horns which they got to blown in after we walked around on the seventh time and then the wall came tumbling down! What amazing fun we had! It is always so much fun to watch the kids act out the bible stories and have fun doing it! :)Madi and Elisabeth dancing to Jesus!

Here is our Funologist Grace, Macy the Mixer, and B.C. the Computer! Welcome to the fun factory! :)
