VBS: Day 1

Vacation Bible School at Shiloh Road was last week.  This year the Pre-K thru Kindergarten was in a different building from the other kids.  Since the girls both fell into this category Keith and I helped out at this level and the girls really enjoyed VBS.  It was much less intimidating for them that it had been when they were put with the older kids. 

VBS here we come!



Last year we had a really hard time getting Carli to participate (Ava was only 2 so she was in the nursery).  Carli wouldn't stray far from us and refused to dress in her Bible times costume.  But this year neither girls seemed to mind parting ways with us and dressing up!  Probably helped to be in familiar classrooms and settings.

Keith and I did the Olympic Shop on the first day.  We were suppose to act like we didn't believe in God or understand what Paul was talking about.  The kids were suppose to try to convince us that there was only one true God and tell us about Paul.  The 5 year olds did a good job but the four and three year olds thought we were crazy!

While we talked they kids made some discus and laurel wreaths.  

 

Carli's class ran out of time, but Ava's class had time to have a discus throwing contest.  Look at Ava's perfect Frisbee throwing form!

It also helped that our VBS ended at 8 pm instead of 8:30.  Who knew 30 minutes would make such a huge difference!  The girls enjoyed their first day of VBS and Keith and I were still more worn out than they were at the end of the night!
