I had an amazing time this week doing Vacation Bible School with the kids. After the first day, the kids knew what was coming each night so they were a little crazy. But it was worth seeing their faces each night. They really got involved in the stories and so many kids volunteered to show us how they memorized the Bible verse for the day or to answer questions about the Bible stories when we were finished. We did a craft each night and then on Thursday we did puppets and Friday we did stuffed teddy bears. The church, my parents, and my grandma are the main reasons we had enough crafts for each kid, so Kim and I have to thank all of them for everything! These kids had so much fun this week and I think they learned a lot too.
