Vacation Bible School

This past week, Cassidy and Carter had their first experience with Vacation Bible School at our church.  The theme was "High Seas Expedition".  I signed up to be a volunteer for the week and received a CD of the songs we would be singing.  So we have been singing them in the van for a couple months now.  Each day started and ended with singing and learning the motions that accompany each song.  In between there were crafts, stories, games and most importantly...snacks!  Overall, both kids did really well and seemed to enjoy the experience.  Carter has never had structured activities day after day and was completely worn out by Thursday. (He ended up staying home with Daddy on Friday.)

The week culminates by sharing some songs and stories with the congregation during the service on Sunday morning.  I wasn't sure if Cassidy and Carter would participate but they did.  They stood up front with all of the other kids.  Cassidy sang along (but didn't do any motions) when she wasn't pulling sections of hair in front of her face and then blowing them away.  Carter clapped a few times when he didn't have his hands in his pockets. Couldn't have been cuter...even if they are mine:)
