Agency D3: Westside VBS 2014

Towards the end of June, we had VBS at our church. Everyone was SO excited. We had to get up earlier that week than we got up all year! But it was a fun, exhausting, meaningful week as we learned about who Jesus is.

Ready for our first day! Crazy sock day, in case you couldn’t tell.

The second day was crazy hair day. I even sprayed mine. I had a meeting that night and the purple was still there.

Charlotte even had some pink hair going on.

Here the kids are during recreation one of the days.

Craft time.

My little spies.

Our awesome group of second graders.

On Friday night we headed back for the wrap up for the week.

Rosemary is up there on the right…hard to see her, since she’s a spy…but she’s there.

And there’s Charlotte. I didn’t realize she’d go up, but she did.

And Chris and Pastor John both got slimed.

The kids enjoyed Chick-fil-a sandwiches and meeting the cow.

Then we went out to the bounce houses. Charlotte loves her friend, Erica.

Ocean Adventures Derby Race

Before Ben’s game ended, Jonathan and Rosemary rushed up to Westside to get the kids’ cars ready for the derby race. They were on time, but didn’t have time to tweak their cars. When Ben, Charlotte, and I arrived, Ben’s car had already raced in its first heat. It needed some more weight to cross the line so Jonathan added some to his and Rosemary’s. Once the weight was added, those cars flew.

With those slow first heats, the kids didn’t end up placing, but they had a great time and were immediately talking about next year’s cars.

Afterwards, we were ready for food so we swung by Steak ‘N Shake for some lunch.
