Been 'GROW'in this week...

We kicked off GROW this week on Wednesday with Chicka, Chicka ABC at Lester Elementary. The PreK classes loved having us read and do a craft with them. Then on Thursday, we had the first Thursday Night Supper Club of the 2011-12 year. Great turn out and several new families to get to know! Mr. Joe was so amazed (as were we) in how receptive the children under 6 were towards him this year...if we only had a video of his first visit last year to compare. I was also so impressed with the interest from the adults! Then today was the Fall Carnival...we set a Saturday record with 131 in attendance...the pictures tell the story of some of the fun that was had...
It's these lovely ladies that make it happen...Thank you volunteers.
Outside we had bobbing for apples, the egg and spoon race as well as the pick up duck pond!
A little planko or football toss...

Can you knock over the pins?
Kelvon and McKenzie's treat bags are full!

I'm not so sure about that...
Thanks Dad for cooking the 100 hotdogs and 50 hamburgers...nothing left at all!
The wonderful leaders...Monica leads Thursday Nights, Rebecca leads Saturday Special Events and none of this would be possible without Lester's Director Casey, Assistant Director Alice and JL President, Grace!

To top this week off, I also rocked a line review at work on Friday and kicked off my next one. So tonight has been spent on the couch watching football...How 'bout them VOLS!!!
