NIV Fast Facts Bible Review

Product Details
 
I agreed to review this book for book look bloggers, but the review is my opinion. 
 
I love reading.  I read everything, including the bible.  I thought this would be a great book because I love fun facts.
I was both happy with this book and also disappointed.  I was disappointed with some of the facts.  I didn't find them to be as interesting as I had hoped.  Some were great---others were just ok. 
I was; however, very happy with the quizzes.  I found that although I had finished the book, I really didn't comprehend as much as I had hoped.  The quizzes really helped  me understand more. 
I think this book would be great for a Sunday School class or bible study.

Busch Gardens and Water Country USA

We went to Busch Gardens and Water Country USA last month and had so much fun!  It was one of our best family vacations.  The kids were fantastic and the parks were awesome. 
Busch Gardens Williamsburg was very clean.  They had rides for every age in each country.  The lines were short and the kids had a great time.  I love that they were holding hands on the dinosaur Ferris wheel.

Water Country USA was also awesome!  The kids had a fantastic time.  We will definitely go back.  Mia is a great big sister- helping Pax with his life jacket.

Relay for Life Recap

June 13th was the Relay for Life in our county.  Unfortunately, it was raining so the turnout was not as great as I had hoped.  But....we had fun and hopefully, they raised a lot of money for Cancer!
We wear blue for our Dad/Grandpa!  Colon Cancer Awareness

Dad's luminary

I made some pony tail holders for my friends Amy/Julie's family team. 

Mia and her cousin Lily had fun even in the rain.
