We made paper mache with paper strips and glue made from simply flour and water! June did not like getting her hands dirty but Shelby LOVED it! She did the whole thing mostly alone! I was truly amazed! She would dip and stick, and then I would smooth them on the balloon!

It didn’t take but a few hours to dry outside in the BLAZING HEAT!!

June painted the oceans blue and clouds white. Then we put ModPodge to make it shiny!

The heavens are yours, and yours also the earth; you founded the world and all that is in it.

He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
