VBS Time!!

Yesterday evening Vacation Bible School week started.



The kids were all excited.



Our seven big kids all helped as group leaders.



I wanted to get picture of the bigger kids in their staff shirts but funny how when the camera comes out the big kids are hard to find...



Our younger eight are participating in the VBS activities.



Ah,I did get a fun picture of them!







This was a milestone year because Lily went with.







Of course,I had to get it all in pictures. Lily was so excited.









Josiah was a leader for the preschool class and said that Lily was pretty shy and held dad's hand most of the time.







Lily came home and after eating two helpings of dinner she fell asleep just like this.







Too bad it was only a short cat nap...



Warmly,A Patchwork Mommy

Gotta Love VBS!

It is time for Vacation Bible School once again!

Jeff, Elena,Grant,and Alan are helping as leaders. All our other children (except Lily) have been enjoying all the fun activities. This is the first Joel has participated in a 'big kid' activity at church.This week of VBS is a sort of trial run to see if Joel would do well attending AWANA this fall. I sure wish he would stay little for a while longer. He was SO exited for the first day of VBS he wore his 'wedding suit' there.It was actually his Christmas outfit,you know the fun toddler vest and polyester pant sets you see around.He complimented his outfit with a glow-in-the-dark t-shirt he received as a Christmas gift from his grandparents and his flip flops! I should have taken a picture.

Here are random highlights of day two of VBS. Thanks Elena!

Now don't get fooled by Cyrus's seemingly bored expression. I think Elena took a picture while he was reflecting on some deep spiritual issue. Really, he was not bored. Ok, maybe he was just a little bored,but just for a split second.



Joel and Grace just as cute as can be!



These next pictures are of the groups Grant,Elena, and Alan helped lead.
