Cookie Baking Night 10/22/2018

Tonight was Cookie Baking Night. In attendance this evening: Allison, Rylar, and Enzo. Special guest this evening: Uncle Greg. (This is the first time he's been able to join us at Cookie Baking Night since early July. Oh, how we missed him so).

Tonight we made pumpkin patch brownies. It's one of our Cookie Baking Night traditions and a crowd favorite.

Warm days and sunlight after 5:00 will not be around much longer, so after supper we took our last walk of the season to the local gas station for a treat. 

After the walk, we started in on decorating our "pumpkin patch brownies"

Tonight we continued learning about the book of Leviticus in the Bible. Our memory verse for Leviticus is: "I am the LORD, who brought you up out of Egypt to be your God; therefore, be holy, because I am holy." Leviticus 1l:45

We ended the evening playing with some toys and hanging out with Uncle Greg. 

Enzo spent most of his time "fixing a wire" under this chair. Eventually, he said, "Hey, Uncle Greg, do you want to be a wire guy?" To which Greg replied, "Sure". (I have no idea what that means, but I found it amusing). 

As usual, a fun time was had by all. 

Cookie Baking Night 10/08/2018

Tonight was Cookie Baking Night. In attendance this evening: Allison, Rylar, and Enzo.

Tonight we did one of our favorite October Cookie Baking Night activities.

We frosted pumpkin bars

and decorated them with candy pumpkins

The finished product was very exciting. 

We continued on our journey through the Bible, one book at a time. Tonight we started talking about the third book in the Old Testament, the book of Leviticus. 

Our first challenge was learning how to say it. It's a tricky one to pronounce. 

We learned that the book of Leviticus is where God gave his people, the Israelites, many laws and rules to set them apart from the people around them and to remind others that there is only one true God, and He is holy. 

Our Bible verse from Leviticus is from chapter 11, verse 45

" I am the LORD, who brought you up out of Egypt to be your God,

 therefore be holy because I am holy."

Another cookie baking night has come and gone and, as usual, a fun time was had by all.
