Penguins

We finally got a chance to see the new penguin exhibit at the zoo. AMAZING! We loved it!







Sweet boy loved them so much, he kept hugging them through the glass.



They all had colored bracelets on. Eric named this one Rainbow Heart (can you tell we are Care Bears fans?).


I thought it was neat that Eric had on his Meet of Champs shirt that says Swim Hard, Swim Fast.


I asked Eric to turn so I could get a picture of his face. The penguin decided to turn to look too. So funny!

Lots of accomplishments


Whew! We have been so busy lately! Eric has had his end of the year programs for soccer, Christ's Kids, and Sparks (more on that later). In Christ's Kids this year, Eric had to know:

Level 1
1st Man and Woman
Jesus' Mother and Father
Days of Creation

Level 2
Books of the New Testament
Acts of Worship

Level 3
10 Plagues
Fruits of the Spirit

Level 4
10 Commandments
12 Sons of Jacob
John 3:16

Then once he completes his Christ's Kids material, he can begin learning verses. Eric learned 31 verses and received a medal. Learning all those verses was a lot of work, especially when he learns a verse each week for homeschool as well as several verses a week for Sparks.
