VBS Week

This past week we participated in VBS week at our church.  JoAnna enjoyed the fun with all the other children.  Caleb was a leader with the 1st and 2nd graders for 3 nights and with the preschoolers the last 2 nights.  I told the Bible story and Lydia was my side kick, Outback Lyd. This week we learned about the life of Peter.  I really enjoyed telling the story each night.  The children all came to our room anticipating Outback Lyd doing something crazy.  One night she had a blow up pool and pretended that she was going to try to walk on water.  The children enjoyed her antics.  By the end of the week Lydia received quite a few impromptu hugs from the children.  She was tickled.  
Caleb explains something to a little preschool charge of his.

Me telling the story.


Today we had a family carnival to wrap up our VBS week.  We had games, a bounce house, a blow up obstacle course, food, candy, popcorn...and LOTS of fun. 

JoAnna's smile shows how much fun she had.


Caleb helped with crowd control on the obstacle course. 



Lydia followed me everywhere, including in circles as I tried to "loose her."  She finally sat down to enjoy some cotton candy and eventually her friend Kennedy came and they went to enjoy the games.
