The S’more Song
(Tune: On Top of Old Smokey)
On top of my cracker, So yummy and sweet, I’ll put on some chocolate, To make a good treat.
Then comes the marshmallow, So sticky and soft, And then one more cracker, So it won’t fall off.
I put it together So gently I press, If I squeeze it too hard, It will make a big mess.
I’m ready to eat it, This thing called a s’more, Oh my, It’s so yummy, I think I’ll have some more!

Summer Bucket List
Starting today, the challenge is to make a summer bucket list for yourself for the next 2 months. Make your list, turn it in to Karen and start working on it. At the end of 2 months, she will check back with you to see how much you got done. Categories could include: Physical things you want to do, working out so many minutes each day, running so far, places you'd like to go, things you'd like to make, books you want to read, people you'd like to contact, spiritual goals, such as reading certain books in the Bible, spending so many minutes in prayer in a week, getting involved in a Bible Study, cooking up some yummy meals, baking, and you get as creative as you want.
This could be fun! Spend a day making your list before you send it to Karen so you've had time to think through what you really want to get done this summer, and email me your bucket list.
