We are Awana Cubbies; we're happy all day long!

Now for some Jenna time!

This was Jenna's first year in the Cubbies program of Awana. She had a love/hate relationship with the program. In the beginning she was certain that she really didn't need to go, recite her verses, or even really listen to her leaders! Ha! Um, at one point she was known for standing up when her name was called to go with her group and yelling, " I DON'T LIKE HIM! I'M NOT GOING WITH HIM!" Oh, a mother has never been so proud! I just had to record that memory so that I could remember it years from now!;o)

However, by the end, I believe-I hope-that she got her act together and even began to enjoy going! 

At the end of the year the Cubbies have a short performance. They sing their three songs, recite pledges to the Bible and the Christian flag, and receive their end of the year prizes.

Here's the group. Jenna is on the far left while Jace Robbins is the exact opposite on the far right.

And, THIS is Cooper Bostwick! 

He did not disappoint!! He was on his A game and performed his little heart out with his own dance moves. It was great! His parents didn't think it was so great, but oh how the rest of us loved it! This guy has quite a bit of spunk! :o)

I love this pic too bc Marcie is just cracking up at Cooper and the gang. 

Cooper's momma is to the right directing trying to keep it all together. 

There's our Jens proudly singing! She was SO excited about the performance!

I loved every minute of watching her perform. I loved seeing her face light up when she saw Jeff and me watching her with huge smiles on our faces!

Don't you love how the Director of Awana's own child doesn't have on her vest!

 Oh, I am such a slacker!

There's our Jace guy holding up the flag!

I just smile when I see him because the Robbins' kiddos are so special to me!

There's the Coop man displaying the Christian flag.

Sweet Jens obeying her teachers by putting a bubble in her mouth.

Oh and Mrs. Keri! Keri directed Cubbies these past 3 1/2 years. 

It goes without saying that she is an amazing leader!

She's also been an amazing friend to me during these past two years.

I'm lucky to call her friend!

I asked him to hold his certificate and smile.

This is how he displayed it for me! :o)

My two favorite Cubbie Buddies!

They are ADORABLE! I mean, really adorable!
