McMullan Church Service









Pastor Reagan leads the service dressed in her pink and white gown. The high chair is used as the pulpit. (Not sure why she chooses to sit in the back of Jake's dump truck instead of a chair). She reads from Revelation "Knock and the door will be opened...." and then leads in music with her maraccas. Rachel does a special reading and duet with Jake. However, I do not remember Hakuna Matata ever being sang in church before. This really must be a contemporary service.

A boy and his toys









Jake's favorite toys are his Cars (from the movie). He must have 6 Lightening McQueens. We also got him some GI Joe's for Christmas (to discourage him from playing with his sister's Barbie dolls).

Sesame Street Live














The real reason we went to Chattanooga was to see Sesame Street Live. Jake's favorite part was C is for Cookie - as if that is a surprise. But that was Cookie Monster's only part in the show. He never came back...and Jake kept asking "where's cookie monster?". Elmo is overrated.

Chattanooga Children's museum



















We spent a little time at the Chattanooga Children's museum on Saturday. We have been once every year since we moved to AL. It didn't seem quite as big this year - or maybe it's because my kids are getting bigger. They had some fun playing on the indoor playground and in the water. Rachel's favorite thing was painting her face of course.

Playing Babies









Jake even joins in playing Baby Dolls with the girls.

Random pictures






Rachel plays Queen Esther. Reagan picks out her outfit for the day "it matches" - although it might give someone a seizure. And Jake "goes to work" with daddy's hat and cooler.

Play tools with Bompa







Jake had fun playing tools with Bompa.
