hOw GrEaT!

CBS = Community Bible Study. i'm sure a lot of you have heard of it, or maybe are even a part of this awesome group of women. i grew up going to cbs, and now i am so glad that trace and lucas have the chance to go as well. although i work 5 days a week and can not attend the weekly bible study, my sister watches my kids on thursdays, so they get to go! trace is in a big boy class and he has learned so much this year. i always hear him saying bible verses or singing songs that he has learned there. it makes my heart happy to hear him in the bedroom, when he thinks noone is listening, singing about zacheus or david. :) lucas is still in the nursery, but mom says they always tell her how sweet he is! that also makes me happy to hear! well they recently had the end of the year program, where the parents come and the kids get to sing their songs they have learned throughout the year. nate and i got to go see him sing. he was so excited when he saw us there! although he was kind of doing his own thing, in his own little world (no, not trace!) he did sing a few of the songs! they learn their memory verses each week by singing them to the tune of popular kid songs, and i think that is a great idea. trace knows all of them! * oh yeah, and i should mention that my mom is the music teacher for all the age groups. so her grandbabies think it is super cool when bitsy comes in their class to teach! * anyways, so the big song they have been working on each week is from the glory revealed album, the song is "how great." trace loves this song! when it comes on the radio he gets so excited! so it was so neat to go see him sing. he has been in a class with lala this year, and caden is in the next class up. they all stood near each other (thanks to bitsy!) so picture taking SHOULD have been easy... except for my camera was screwed up and all but 1 of my picures are so blurry! i'm very disappointed, but i know shannon got some good pics of them! i wanted to go ahead and share these. again, they aren't the greatest, but you get the idea! :) i did take a video, i'm just not sure if i can load it. i will try...... but for now, enjoy the notsogood but itwillhavetowork pics!
