We not only bowled with a "baby turkey" but we also had a great time decorating and eating yummy cupcakes (thanks KC) but the kids worked hard making 2 special fleece blankets to give to "His Nesting Place" a home for unwed mothers that our church supports. It was fun seeing the kids work hard on the blankets (yes, even the boys) and also so great to see them so welcoming and friendly to the new students who had not been there before. Way to go 5th Graders!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt3WOgewPgEACe380zkFySYjxcMqkK0MLds-7CM-UfGY9uLE-m3ZGiR4uD7HXkMBH81YoqL1exH7ZfJDkvwstI6tghfJYipGr7v7e_Ch6Zk3uQx2zBeQ_kUVnsZn9F3HWRLvzcHsbvBFQ/s1600/019.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt3WOgewPgEACe380zkFySYjxcMqkK0MLds-7CM-UfGY9uLE-m3ZGiR4uD7HXkMBH81YoqL1exH7ZfJDkvwstI6tghfJYipGr7v7e_Ch6Zk3uQx2zBeQ_kUVnsZn9F3HWRLvzcHsbvBFQ/s400/019.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539648815997800642" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRAZ6IDBXRjPz_84QjJXKtIiUehQwwViT-hrJmNadKejjdunVmRsemg2u0NFIQmyTh6WCcHPZL2ufExFyzj8YKQXXIJDx71_bM_oYwQGOUg6O3C8-yJ1jpAethJaupDJKDvaICwx-KR2g/s1600/015.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRAZ6IDBXRjPz_84QjJXKtIiUehQwwViT-hrJmNadKejjdunVmRsemg2u0NFIQmyTh6WCcHPZL2ufExFyzj8YKQXXIJDx71_bM_oYwQGOUg6O3C8-yJ1jpAethJaupDJKDvaICwx-KR2g/s400/015.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539648802376898786" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWG1qDynAZ_aNcih4BND2Tp_iWmQItq5_EcxvZ98OzfA3fzr1nDD7f-dCObJO8rULtSGZ4GddN8kvUQnd538ohL0u8T7Jo1uYZ3mPNUpKeWKC1kRYWeacm3YYwH_szvYmxv01Rn-6jLGg/s1600/008.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWG1qDynAZ_aNcih4BND2Tp_iWmQItq5_EcxvZ98OzfA3fzr1nDD7f-dCObJO8rULtSGZ4GddN8kvUQnd538ohL0u8T7Jo1uYZ3mPNUpKeWKC1kRYWeacm3YYwH_szvYmxv01Rn-6jLGg/s400/008.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539648796910746002" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKw9LvzwTsUyVHTbPlgybVFXkLuCoBeSJ1JSEXemLmW5urQFcl5jEaTvqlk3xKOWj-hGscFsx2fqZLK5AYAxIDR7eHHrCdO36AT72u_ITP857egOZXHXtYpch1XkVKm7dHMJAAbPRS3K8/s1600/003.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKw9LvzwTsUyVHTbPlgybVFXkLuCoBeSJ1JSEXemLmW5urQFcl5jEaTvqlk3xKOWj-hGscFsx2fqZLK5AYAxIDR7eHHrCdO36AT72u_ITP857egOZXHXtYpch1XkVKm7dHMJAAbPRS3K8/s400/003.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539648790569530674" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj05HzjgCjkZNPWUwhPURbys-FN5txHYf7spihcP48pvLCcmp8qdK3AGRSFoFIoqtnUg3cC-mTqe-ozNvPnIYxeL4VS1idRQnnK2JnfEmwhSsl6080QqkcaX6TqT1ijFmktXJweqdrUqCY/s1600/025.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj05HzjgCjkZNPWUwhPURbys-FN5txHYf7spihcP48pvLCcmp8qdK3AGRSFoFIoqtnUg3cC-mTqe-ozNvPnIYxeL4VS1idRQnnK2JnfEmwhSsl6080QqkcaX6TqT1ijFmktXJweqdrUqCY/s400/025.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539648787979264930" /></a><br /><blockquote></blockquote><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiodWTbRNOLAHdru7pTBA6slah5ZShb_A9YxwgDhGhYhq0cizcUaDnSFwN_XiSQhdKmg9EhYrMTLrbLEQg03vh-GKFdgKDL3ulyEHiu-F8Ez1qI_BNtpe2taXfYXMhoA0u-qGvkqosGMkM/s1600/007.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiodWTbRNOLAHdru7pTBA6slah5ZShb_A9YxwgDhGhYhq0cizcUaDnSFwN_XiSQhdKmg9EhYrMTLrbLEQg03vh-GKFdgKDL3ulyEHiu-F8Ez1qI_BNtpe2taXfYXMhoA0u-qGvkqosGMkM/s400/007.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539652122382707298" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGCvl2DLexxBIrxKDclg_covXhwfY9n8sNRF0uF4wtEN7l4xofoEQkbYIkmoEg49_ddAYaW04tpAJ8gHEP1-9wUQvo_Wjsn-Sdql5762zWx3WDMYYL6Ygbm0wmPXK1WHtJTWElHoJTs6o/s1600/005.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGCvl2DLexxBIrxKDclg_covXhwfY9n8sNRF0uF4wtEN7l4xofoEQkbYIkmoEg49_ddAYaW04tpAJ8gHEP1-9wUQvo_Wjsn-Sdql5762zWx3WDMYYL6Ygbm0wmPXK1WHtJTWElHoJTs6o/s400/005.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539652109197295634" /></a>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-25548143495311652832010-11-04T12:16:00.001-07:002010-11-04T12:34:20.185-07:00Passing on some Memories at Kid UI had a great childhood! I grew up constantly learning new crafts... macrame, knitting, crocheting, sewing, bead making, potholder-loom-thingy, ceramics, leather making, etc. My mom was awesome (and still is). She basically taught CRAFTS for a living... how cool is that! I can still picture in my mind her big giant silkscreening machine, and her giant LOOM where she was weaving a rug or something, and let us give it a try. Even now, she has a KILN in her garage and still comes to church to teach crafts to our kids on Wednesday nights as often as possible. Right now, I'm teaching a jewelry making class at Kid U on Wednesday nights, and my girls are making their own beads out of the long paper triangles. Remember those? I'm feeling quite "retro" because I remember my mom teaching me how to make those when I was younger. The girls were very excited that you could make your own beads out of paper and glue! It will take us a few weeks to make the beads before we string them onto some cool bracelets or necklaces! It's fun (and a privilege) to pass along what we've learned to others! I love my girls and I sure love my job!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvyOyV0NxEE1rpHQKOxh2ge82Aj82OZs1mluQfmida4Bw9qxIqXfn7WnQaGYjFOrntw5ru5Al3IyYRhs45xOVbvmy-McIYdSow7h8eiQV1wrBD2Hto9H2FA9Lj8VEfI9dN_B2lDpaHieg/s1600/jewelryclass_marissa.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvyOyV0NxEE1rpHQKOxh2ge82Aj82OZs1mluQfmida4Bw9qxIqXfn7WnQaGYjFOrntw5ru5Al3IyYRhs45xOVbvmy-McIYdSow7h8eiQV1wrBD2Hto9H2FA9Lj8VEfI9dN_B2lDpaHieg/s400/jewelryclass_marissa.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535780073050653426" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEFZVjxz64vgso-UfRcNxZuGasFefbUKLSzuDED3Eske-TnzwOomV-IG41n_RQLnVX_lt2b4BQvZ8OwbuSNGT2ZDBuGrJixzLbYbiRhTGEX7tyOoTz3Tl6eu9tEXDg46NR1lZMuw37ebk/s1600/jewelryclass_4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEFZVjxz64vgso-UfRcNxZuGasFefbUKLSzuDED3Eske-TnzwOomV-IG41n_RQLnVX_lt2b4BQvZ8OwbuSNGT2ZDBuGrJixzLbYbiRhTGEX7tyOoTz3Tl6eu9tEXDg46NR1lZMuw37ebk/s400/jewelryclass_4.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535779953834834994" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGONtdRPkl7WLpjHEY_3hef_-GioYT1cX1AN1wkN51tZuiJ9VCk7cPT9WqjN5DXYRZU25I07uhgxDSUUlVY1Ocb7DdlRujhbDWIgL745CatMevnQbewF0dbJVKjUKKmnH2KD8DPF5rhc0/s1600/jewelryclass_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGONtdRPkl7WLpjHEY_3hef_-GioYT1cX1AN1wkN51tZuiJ9VCk7cPT9WqjN5DXYRZU25I07uhgxDSUUlVY1Ocb7DdlRujhbDWIgL745CatMevnQbewF0dbJVKjUKKmnH2KD8DPF5rhc0/s400/jewelryclass_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535779869324339490" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfJOzfu-zruetFkchMVuzZagpLBnzYyGuJT5q8jGnMlVKDQ3kRGRLZE6HS14sHkuTWVms3QjsFG12re8gJXPSTfii3RVu8a_O7qRqzArdhCi1Xe5RjxEfmvn-qrkPfBN3g6qAhsi16vEk/s1600/jewelryclass_1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfJOzfu-zruetFkchMVuzZagpLBnzYyGuJT5q8jGnMlVKDQ3kRGRLZE6HS14sHkuTWVms3QjsFG12re8gJXPSTfii3RVu8a_O7qRqzArdhCi1Xe5RjxEfmvn-qrkPfBN3g6qAhsi16vEk/s400/jewelryclass_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5535779775524569218" /></a>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-44239336884755220932010-10-19T07:37:00.000-07:002010-10-19T07:52:16.476-07:00Another super fun day in KidStuf at 1BL!

Each team of 4-5 kids was given a list of 35 items to find around the mall (mostly free stuff like a napkin, a straw, a namebag, a store display, etc.) within a specific amount of time. They were also given $5.00 to purchase the largest item they could find to bring back to the judging area.

Kids are so proud to walk up to me and turn in their car that they (and their dad?) have worked so hard on. My job is the best job of the day. I sit at the "impound" table and weigh in their cars when they are turned in. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuRiTruCEu3Ni4krIm_sr3wEpvnp2QGs7a89hqLsjB9f4h9g9ekIbsZpPoeHposx9bD4PJ8_UvPDUV4zmJP-R7YvUAe9j1a2hPrxtjxCebFlp86AzuZHkUxHrL6tpn2zgRRs37fhqgo58/s1600/0001+010.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuRiTruCEu3Ni4krIm_sr3wEpvnp2QGs7a89hqLsjB9f4h9g9ekIbsZpPoeHposx9bD4PJ8_UvPDUV4zmJP-R7YvUAe9j1a2hPrxtjxCebFlp86AzuZHkUxHrL6tpn2zgRRs37fhqgo58/s400/0001+010.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482747274002643042" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUvHRIDjyD72_Vp5fP1-If3-7McqKScMWvM96BWBgSVdrhl7SxScJwx75BpMcWuBG2IyLXmyF7915YBfblBQfdIWDhOwAH5xmu9IdGBMG5DffyRNliOYLu0rgxu5ow6YE0Qv40QeEWELA/s1600/0001+004.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUvHRIDjyD72_Vp5fP1-If3-7McqKScMWvM96BWBgSVdrhl7SxScJwx75BpMcWuBG2IyLXmyF7915YBfblBQfdIWDhOwAH5xmu9IdGBMG5DffyRNliOYLu0rgxu5ow6YE0Qv40QeEWELA/s400/0001+004.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482748362487406658" /></a><br />Here's our Master Chef Gary Wahlstrom, who always does a great job cooking a great meal for us!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxOTT5LlebuMRdd4l53wFE4INtssNIVada-MU3_bcuQYs4fGj9jpMYcxgDflXnv28gDYKOv6LwXieT5dbnMPKf3rl-ITikLNw6qezv2vg-vMsSWvvZiDN8ltXheSzJqWbPLvLwuJi_gzo/s1600/0001+022.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxOTT5LlebuMRdd4l53wFE4INtssNIVada-MU3_bcuQYs4fGj9jpMYcxgDflXnv28gDYKOv6LwXieT5dbnMPKf3rl-ITikLNw6qezv2vg-vMsSWvvZiDN8ltXheSzJqWbPLvLwuJi_gzo/s400/0001+022.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482749106659461586" /></a><br /><br />Here are the DAHL KIDS (???) making some last minute adjustments to their car. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJsjzIIO8K3ozwK3dWxgbWPdAQ85dcfzJsy1FUFEzbolu-X5GL5ohKO0wHpdENg04Qr02LdhaSWcK1JlnLQ-pBfokP6x1tntPJsKR293oOuLKqDjEc4IWNcItZuYU9jaJZtXbZAw43uKk/s1600/0001+068.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJsjzIIO8K3ozwK3dWxgbWPdAQ85dcfzJsy1FUFEzbolu-X5GL5ohKO0wHpdENg04Qr02LdhaSWcK1JlnLQ-pBfokP6x1tntPJsKR293oOuLKqDjEc4IWNcItZuYU9jaJZtXbZAw43uKk/s400/0001+068.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482750183812877346" /></a> <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_Zmn3a5EgV6cjfBunjkP_ARSKVjiiMr9MMnxcK4npqrpqvIHbOyf60jaj-W-2hxrFxkJmwHpzRBCaRGRUje_rysbfwV1aI7E1vzI-1xhZL8TeJbkIZsTozkEDw-azzMQ4uZVnHss7Cxs/s1600/0001+064.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_Zmn3a5EgV6cjfBunjkP_ARSKVjiiMr9MMnxcK4npqrpqvIHbOyf60jaj-W-2hxrFxkJmwHpzRBCaRGRUje_rysbfwV1aI7E1vzI-1xhZL8TeJbkIZsTozkEDw-azzMQ4uZVnHss7Cxs/s400/0001+064.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5482750603279616082" /></a><br /><br />Congratulations to everyone who participated!

We love our 5th graders, and I've known MANY of them since they were babies, so it's always bittersweet to see them graduate. Fortunately, I still get to see them around church, and many of them continue serving in Children's Ministries as helpers. I am proud of the loving, kind, servants they've become. Especially this group. We took a few of them to a concert a few weeks ago. For some of them, it was there first "concert" experience. We saw "Mercy Me," "The David Crowder Band," and a few more. It was at the Long Beach Arena, (I was glad it was close to home) and we had a great time. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMh2uEOkY3DX0l-asUZbocazkKHMB0AvPCK2n4zRyfoA7RQzg0MJpKSUVleqq0psSCvk5uRGjI6HGMcJRH6bfDzpq5-DHdUk-NlDzpdFUvaSv8hCUZNcg4PA0_Qy-iEXoSWIEC8N9FheA/s1600/100_3378.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMh2uEOkY3DX0l-asUZbocazkKHMB0AvPCK2n4zRyfoA7RQzg0MJpKSUVleqq0psSCvk5uRGjI6HGMcJRH6bfDzpq5-DHdUk-NlDzpdFUvaSv8hCUZNcg4PA0_Qy-iEXoSWIEC8N9FheA/s400/100_3378.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469807905749631458" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvE-qgPMho0i1Pt_RXMFUTAZYe3Z68NLu82FvjeRTrq1jEHf7UYI_RMJKPNUAmtyt8akFmAhGdxxOP8e-xoP6qCRCMTkKRDeGSSlPyU776Dr1VHpi-m6MydZCx2OkXxxC4urHw2XNqNYc/s1600/100_3365.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvE-qgPMho0i1Pt_RXMFUTAZYe3Z68NLu82FvjeRTrq1jEHf7UYI_RMJKPNUAmtyt8akFmAhGdxxOP8e-xoP6qCRCMTkKRDeGSSlPyU776Dr1VHpi-m6MydZCx2OkXxxC4urHw2XNqNYc/s400/100_3365.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469807087303382034" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ9YTNU-qhdPzFbl-cZdxcUYgv4NPzfHees0b__c3WG4ccB0AdZL4aTtk5VqGQyrxBlDhL5784bE3JGCe-rb9uDfLuzhGdQP-EKuLg88KOsbVTJFrVoY53gYOfn_KdwcsY0YDxfavec-8/s1600/100_3366.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ9YTNU-qhdPzFbl-cZdxcUYgv4NPzfHees0b__c3WG4ccB0AdZL4aTtk5VqGQyrxBlDhL5784bE3JGCe-rb9uDfLuzhGdQP-EKuLg88KOsbVTJFrVoY53gYOfn_KdwcsY0YDxfavec-8/s400/100_3366.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469807311255184914" /></a>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-25062913921613721492010-03-08T15:23:00.000-08:002010-03-08T15:32:23.209-08:00Look at These Sweet Kids!Look at our sweet 1st & 2nd graders working hard learning their memory verses in Sunday School!

Every 7 weeks we gather parents and kids together for a time of fun, laughter, learning, and celebrating. Last night was one of those nights.

I always get to do chapel at LCS the week right before Fall Festival so I can pump up FF to the kids. It's not a good week for me to plan a chapel, so I try to start very early in September to start planning what I'm going to talk about. Over the years, I usually do some kind of character quality that I think is important for the kids to think about as they begin their school year, like sharing, or lying/ honesty, or friendship, or something like that. This year, I decided to talk about PENGUINS! Penguins? In October? Yes, Penguins..... we can learn a lot from penguins... so here you go... Here is my chapel talk for today.<br /><span style="color:#3366ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;">I know this is not the normal time of year that we learn about penguins or talk about penguins, but because I love penguins so much, I thought it would be fun to do a whole chapel based on penguins… and THEN I heard that Mr. Kell wrote a song about penguins… well then that sealed the deal! I knew it was meant to be!<br />Did you know that there are about 20 different kinds of penguins?<br />1. Chinstrap Penguins<br />2. Emperor Penguins (those are the biggest ones!)<br />3. Fairy Penguins (those are the smallest ones)<br />4. King Penguins<br />5. Rockhopper Penguins<br />And a bunch more!<br />There’s even one called the Macaroni Penguin… (my favorite, because of his funny yellow bushy eyebrows!) </span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;"><br />So let me tell you a little bit about Penguins and why I think they are one of God’s most amazing creatures and why they always remind me of how much God loves me….<br />You see, none of us are the same, are we!? Just as there are 20 different kinds of penguins, there are way more than 20 different kinds of kids! Some of us are tall like the emperor penguin and some of us are teeny tiny like the fairy penguin. The fairy penguin is less than 3 pounds….. that’s less than HALF of what all of you weighed when you were born. Some penguins have feathers on their head, and some of them have little red marks on their eyes or on their beaks, just like some of us have freckles all over their bodies, or ears that stick out, or feet that are pointed inward instead of outward. </span><br /><span style="color:#3366ff;"><br />There are a lot of things that Penguins aren't very good at; or they CAN'T DO....They walk funny, and they waddle, and their wings are so short they can’t even fly; they can’t use their arms to crack open their food like a monkey or a bear; they can’t fight off other penguins in the wild with their sharp teeth or lightening fast speed like a cougar or a jaguar or a lion. You know there are a lot of things that I can’t do either that I wish I could do…<br />*I can’t fly<br />*can’t play the flute<br />*can’t jump the pole vault<br />*can’t swim to Catalina and back...<br />Are there some things you CAN'T DO? Of course there are! But God doesn't want us to focus on those things or worry about those things.<br /><br />CAN DO: But there are so many amazing things that penguins CAN DO: God made them so unique and so special and unlike any other creature.<br />Did you know that some of them can eat snow when they can’t find fish or kreel to eat; that because of their white bellies, they are almost totally camoflauged in the water, so that a predator below them looking up at them can’t tell that it’s a penguin… He just thinks it’s the reflective surface of the water. God not only created them, He protects them every day, just like He protects us. He doesn’t just make us and throw us out there, He keeps on taking care of us every day, every moment.<br /><br />The large emperor penguins (4 ft. tall!) can stay under water and swim for almost 22 minutes… I don’t think any of us can do that, BUT there are amazing things that we can do that no one else can do. We can sing & worship and give praise to the Lord Jesus. We can pray for our friends who don’t know him and talk to our friends about Jesus and tell our friends how much God loves them.<br /><br />Penguin Moms and Dads are known for their unique teamwork and cooperation with each other. After mom lays a baby penguin EGG, Dad holds the egg on top of his feet for many months while MOM goes out and looks for FOOD, food for mom, dad and the baby. Mom could just go off by herself and leave and say, You know it’s way too far to go look for food. I’m way too tired. I think I’ll just eat these shrimp over hear on this tropical island and forget about dad and jr. way back over there in “snowy ville”…. And I’m so tired of swimming. But mom always comes back. God created penguin moms and dads to be a TEAM. To cooperate with each other. While moms are out swimming and looking for food, the DADS are huddled together trying to keep warm in the middle of a snowstorm. You’d think they’d want to go sit down somewhere and watch a football game and eat some pretzels, but they can’t. They huddle together and protect each other, and when dad gets really cold and thinks he can’t go on anymore, then the uncles and aunts and grandpa’s trade places with him and make sure he’s doing ok. They know they have an important job to do… to help JR. survive and stay inside that egg until he’s ready to be born. He is totally dedicated and committed to the task God made him for. He knows his purpose in life. He knows why he is designed the way he is designed.<br />YOU and ME:<br />Do you know why you are made the way you are made? Do you know why you are good at math and maybe not so good at playing a musical instrument? Or why you are super great at playing soccer, but not so good at spelling? We can’t all be great at everything. God didn’t design us that way. But we can learn some important lessons from our friends the penguins. We need each other. We need to cooperate together and take care of each other. And we need to do what WE’RE good at while someone else does what they’re good at. Just like the mom and dad penguins do their individual unique jobs, with the purpose in mind of helping that baby penguin come into the world.<br /><span style="font-size:180%;">What’s the purpose God made us for?</span><br />Psalm 78:4 says that we are to tell the next generation the praises of the Lord and about his strength and His wondrous works. That’s your job. That’s why God put you here on this earth. To keep the message of his glory and power and strength going and going and going. If you weren’t here on this earth, then there would be certain people who would never hear about the Lord Jesus. This generation, like people MY AGE will wear out and fizzle out and die, and the message of Jesus would STOP unless YOU, the next generation, keeps the message going. If you know the purpose God made you for, and you know the gifts and strengths He gave you, what are you going to do about it? Are you going to swim away with the message? Or are you going to “cooperate” with the other people around you to make sure the message keeps going?<br />God never intended for you to spread his message all alone. He wants you to be a part of the team; just like the mom and dad and aunt and uncle penguins all live together to make sure those baby penguins get born! You were made on purpose!<br /><br /></span><span style="color:#3366ff;"></span>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-78679512868391004832009-09-21T12:42:00.000-07:002009-09-21T12:53:16.122-07:00Kid U 09-10 has begun<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDWp9FN8gF5s9sOPV0CzqbKcBOgu4sPH1qY4tzadDKq0VSoC5xdddwpIavVzJ220o5-34TFCzFAP7rGq5i12ReWXLR9y4DyPgfJ8JX1ONZQahRsZlCBomoFYUK8XsYffCXeZLtYSQx9lA/s1600-h/100_2552.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384010610459734242" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDWp9FN8gF5s9sOPV0CzqbKcBOgu4sPH1qY4tzadDKq0VSoC5xdddwpIavVzJ220o5-34TFCzFAP7rGq5i12ReWXLR9y4DyPgfJ8JX1ONZQahRsZlCBomoFYUK8XsYffCXeZLtYSQx9lA/s320/100_2552.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><br /><br /><div>Kid U & Preppies, our Wednesday night club ministry, are up and running in full swing! We have more kids than ever, but there's still room for lots more, so I hope you'll join us if you have children age three up through 5th Grade. Here are a few pictures of our kids having fun already in their elective classes... woodworking, scrapbooking, "It's Your Move," and "Extreme Games." We also have Sign Language and "Preppie Leaders In Training" a class that allows our 5th graders to learn about serving in our preschool area.<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384010072940862674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEBRQOwcuebM1yKwD6mPUKOEadkSgb9EdpQy2hSvu5yo2SHsf8fOgkoNVKIBHLiyKP1tmBsBlqugkwH6skFGdE-3RBTOWit2_B1ptW5OS_1bRnJS6DrwXQ-jxpqAUkeIhy44AN8GT112A/s320/100_2554.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384009798659979314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIbslwoq_D2i5lX0cf286TJPDvDY80zeU1dDwjWK9kOCkNnKXcs9B1U_Wqsev2lFiLJLo-jr9X3l_1Sb7lAW13ZkIYhC-QAr43asd2x_9G9ErB5HD3THqNHsybYePCltB1LDKvpa8wKeU/s320/100_2560.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384009644979871010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggx_4E7WsNKyhyphenhyphenHkCqlVuz6CyETenedQ60WGgPGFBeoPiIRX1ElxDSH8F4OIwasmVIMww1YZPsIdrsKbwANTGjMenAzT9BTHsLMD-cNThZb2ULReLF_jTtSvSo8KbfCxME3z2R0uNpt4g/s320/100_2564.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384009935167648306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9ZfbDWJnB7CADeKxFylumZtaKtc4aE_HPuwAtg1r_-LpoERDLwK9n14BQuWlPoWizeYzrxBHFHTDQYiPVg6Ls9o1YvT2wfmu62LBeQL8IDUEesxrYDswsMzFTBN4Cu_VNV2cPI2hiVhA/s320/100_2556.JPG" border="0" /></div></div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384010452341258898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL3Pd8nAYMkMBJTXy_UN8vJ2ZHueTJI9mHv4bnW1CGNxNWnRRic-B653OYf6uBjVimNPrgNA_2Rh0iFZoThmZ4_17PoFbKAExbErNUFK4BP7H3nDfMXa8PScwYrGUlVqeayHb4gdVlZsY/s320/100_2551.JPG" border="0" />Kid U & Preppies meets every Wednesday at 6:30!

We have an outing just about every Thursday during the summer (except for VBS weeks and stuff like that!). It's great to see our kids making new friends, inviting their neighbors, and just hanging out together. Atlantis park is a small "play center" within the boundaries of Garden Grove park in Garden Grove. It's $1.00 to get in, and the cool thing is that kids are only allowed with an adult and adults are only allowed with a child, so there are no "strange" adults hanging around inappropriately. <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354065643746614466" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0F4HlVE9uJrKjEhaK5pQ1UrXstNVBE1fx46fRx38LONEIE7ykafO5tKk4Y2NtV2JFMWJHYgKpbIHXrRUK2cAepKFfKndOm2yce5M8aiq1BYiBKzlZ7ETbXInDyTaBX7mtU3QRon504EI/s400/000_0070.jpg" />We started with a nice lunch time in the pavillion area, and then started exploring! It didn't take the kids very long to find the "wild" bunnies (that were obviously very used to having kids poke and chace it!) <img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354066190645314274" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWNpD5tuYPfdkFU3eU_8SVLhchgFph5gkCjADyklNaFu7SiRDXJ8Ja0tvu6b2SUZsdtds7x_7mIpwaIFnwNueH90_84GYybaO5XOWR9YJdgv0YijYCsPP1BcxUxx-7DRvx21-UM-LpEzk/s320/000_0073.jpg" />After a little exploring, we had a scavenger hunt, and then time for more exploring!

I remember watching you play together in the two year old room at church when I first became your pastor. You are GOOD FRIENDS to each other, you are kind to new kids who join the group, you are serious about reaching your friends for Christ, you are eager to study God's Word and figure out what it means for your life, you are a LOT of fun to be with and I'd party with you any day! I will never ever drive past the Rockview Dairy on Bellflower and Del Amo again without hearing Solomon shouting in my ear, "Zombie Cow! Zombie Cow!" I can't wait to watch and see what God does in and through your lives. I know I will see pastors, missionaries, teachers, godly businessmen and women, loving moms and dads/ husbands and wives, and Kingdom/ World Changers! Oh yeah, and at least one Marine Biologist :) I'm glad we have a few more weeks in Sunday School together before you officially leave the Children's Department and enter the Middle School Ministry. And I'm also VERY glad that I will still be involved in your lives as you come back to serve in the Children's Department and use the amazing gifts God has bestowed upon you. I love you all. See you AROUND 1BL! Thanks for letting me love on you and be a part of what God is doing in your lives.</p>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-55811536275728959252009-04-07T11:02:00.000-07:002009-04-07T11:12:03.037-07:00Hangin Out with Rob Biagi<div><div><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7i8_mE5FVR_2BdYmqdzXf0Qab3iQVlqoE7MxshDPCk5Zok5aaH19k_jfP_MW3c1OGg9zcIQKtPSvvZ4cWSu80HmbNemTvKVma_vzamy3HLX-hPsVLusz_gP7bdY6qHbityj_twLrFj8A/s1600-h/100_1467.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5322011726794620130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7i8_mE5FVR_2BdYmqdzXf0Qab3iQVlqoE7MxshDPCk5Zok5aaH19k_jfP_MW3c1OGg9zcIQKtPSvvZ4cWSu80HmbNemTvKVma_vzamy3HLX-hPsVLusz_gP7bdY6qHbityj_twLrFj8A/s400/100_1467.jpg" border="0" /></a> Here are some fun pictures taken at the Rob Biagi Concert a few weeks ago when he was ministering at Calvary Chapel North Long Beach.

We had hoped to hang out at EPSN zone, but discovered that it was a 3 hour wait for a table on a Friday Night... not gonna happen with a dozen hungry 5th graders! So we ate at Wetzels Pretzels and then did some playing at the Lego store and the Disney store. I think the kids were just happy to be together and happy to be at the "Happiest Place on Earth!" So kids... if you're out there and you're listening, what kinds of activities to you like to do with your friends?????<br /><div></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317558886593882306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilK9Vs0IGOvXc2FFRcKVsRPNUzdaj44YeXyKNECaN66iKw2OYO_0KNjhRmxsNYJPCCCWqTHUnyG_8odqsGTx0U3GhNszPRkKrGu7BxpnASVii7-o0UNmqZD9dg0pUz5e5QT-cJAPChFr0/s400/100_1432.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div></div></div>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-37733178249926713952009-02-15T20:59:00.000-08:002009-02-15T21:19:48.045-08:00How Do You Give your Pastor a Heart Attack ???<div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNW_rAawy5sW-dsU7SEnpx5GphvmAHImAxtlXBn4FkNsQGZh4za14m_YgwJ4qVcFLGM3Ym3VDj2eeYC1Tm6WQC5N8HeH5ux7poyy4d2GaPbUnUKxm3TY8l80cAsiP0B4M4JXTKjiuYCJY/s1600-h/100_1396.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303258668095028514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNW_rAawy5sW-dsU7SEnpx5GphvmAHImAxtlXBn4FkNsQGZh4za14m_YgwJ4qVcFLGM3Ym3VDj2eeYC1Tm6WQC5N8HeH5ux7poyy4d2GaPbUnUKxm3TY8l80cAsiP0B4M4JXTKjiuYCJY/s400/100_1396.jpg" border="0" /></a> Today, in honor of Valentine's Day, we had a very special day planned for our Kids! This is a day we've been planning and anticipating for a long time! To tell our new pastor, Pastor Brent, how much we love him, this day was called "Heart Attack" day... not the kind you're thinking of! Each of our 1st - 5th Graders were given about 30 - 40 sticky notes, to draw hearts on and write notes of encouragement to Brent. Then we trekked outside to find and "attack" his car!!!!!<br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303259057097551346" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1__vmL3X_FLDcxOeuHp5HJVIw8BpeWkrYM83Unv7ooNuM1RAFDqJ4QAsU9d1QMmmukGL-t1zgsepbwbdRiPk0Hbja_4T-UAsDvFD9x0QPWOZCJGFku5BMvJbBXeVH3AEo0YNMHEMnchc/s400/100_1397.jpg" border="0" /><br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303259607909115746" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBdlBIgFOG3NaDlWyLjKsrjJYyVIwpZF1KSriJiqaU1DBkv3L8utDPGh7Ns8Fj3NEppTzORZY_sgncneWMzPtR7QIiaYMPZWHFd9_CHElahE246jdTpuWQrbQUrN2toQ_L2_mbfO9ijt4/s400/100_1403.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><div></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5303258403881621218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoNISqWUKdcwEAOTTboG0pWFOY8owOi33TvConyAR231xJPl-KicDVvotNo5izrKaCnGVcKI7Z2Gq1czBaCQwywSus5Wv5hN0IjpxNQRDmifYY0FZOuhTtVd1wCWFfpwoev97UZbjqL1o/s400/100_1404.jpg" border="0" /> </div><br />The sign on the windshield says, "You've received a Heart Attack from all the Kids in KidStuf!"<br /><div></div><div><div>We had a great day, one we'll remember for a long time... hope you had a good weekend too!</div></div></div>Carol Scheevelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09344816092528199539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963139018717610598.post-57903639058896813152009-01-22T16:32:00.000-08:002009-01-22T16:38:28.785-08:00Lots of New Kids at Kid U!<div>We sure are excited about all the new kids who are coming to Kid U on Wednesday nights.

We had a special worship concert for our kids during KidStuf, featuring Dave Hopkins, who came all the way down from Monterey to bless us and lead our kids in worship, along with my sister in law DANA and the rest of Dave's band, "Love Out Loud." We've been using some of Dave's worship songs in KidStuf for about a year, and it was so fun to have them here in person. The kids LOVED it and I was amazed at how much they participated, how much they SANG from their hearts, and how much FUN we all had. Here are a few of the pictures!<br /><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275273936502528082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_kQCWmzsnNAZPeIF9z_LCQqDXyXi_P847OcHPARQ_nuzuzvt2h6GaZjmJBFgZrlue8nTpwHulGuJPDDdqdLqlEu01dOE9DldqaQHeZJrpit3utwfvcsQD7mtRI5N_OH6DSWODjITtAcs/s400/100_1138.JPG" border="0" /></div><p>(Backstage before the concert began.
