Thimble Thoughts: Mother's Day Lunch And Sigma Banquet

Grab a cup of coffee and relax. I was camera happy today! These are pictures of our Mother's Day Lunch that we had here in honor of our Moms and also Justin's Awards Banquet for SIGMA.

We gave them their cards...see Mom cry? I just love it when my cards make her cry. :)

For their gift, we decided to give them a little pampering so we bought them each a gift certificate for a manicure and pedicure.

Here is my Dad. He grilled the burgers for us. Good job, Dad. They were great.

We took pictures of us with our Moms

It was a nice lunch and a nice time spent with them. Happy Mother's Day y'all!

Tonight was Justin's SIGMA Banquet. The theme in SIGMA this year was Missions and so the decorations for the evening were different places around the world.

Here is Justin and Jeremy in Italy

They left Italy and came back to the USA where they met Sis Liz

Then they decided to freeze in Antarctica

Only to warm up in Mexico

After warming up, they decided to take a trip to China

Justin blew up all those balloons for the dragon. Boy was he out of breath after that! OK, I'm kidding...he had a machine.

Bradley receiving his award

These were the SIGMA teens that made the top 10 scores this year...Daniel, Nathan, Clayton, Catherine, Mark, Justin, Spencer, Jennifer and John. Not sure where the tenth teen was tonight.

Mark receiving his award for bringing the most visitors this year.

Jennifer receiving one of MANY awards she would receive tonight. I believe UHAUL was called to take all her awards home. Hehe, Jennifer, I think it's great that you did so well this year. SIGMA will miss you next year.

Clayton receiving the Helping Hand Award. He went above and beyond this year to help out in whatever way he could. Just like his mother, that one.

Spencer receiving his award

John receiving his award

Justin's team, The American Christians, won the most team points this year and received medals.

Catherine receiving her award

Justin receiving the Unsung Hero Award. This award was presented to the teen who demonstrated humility and meekness and whose attitude reflected a Christ-centered heart. It was a blessing to his dad and me that he would receive this award.

Brother RJ and Sis Liz. Our Youth Pastor and his wife. Thank you so much for a wonderful year with SIGMA. And the banquet was beautiful. Thank you for working so hard to make it so nice for us. We love y'all!
