Well, the last ya-wiki, wiki song has been sung (until the girls ask for the CD in the car). The final round of snack-missions-crafts-music-recreation has been made. The volcanoes have spewed their last bit of fog. The room is back to it's original state (for the most part). VBS is officially over.
But, not before yesterday's Family Night. It's a time where we get to give the parents just a taste of what their students have been doing all week. We began with a little hot dog dinner out on the front lawn of the church. Xander and Trinity ate up their watermelon treats with great ease!
Then, everyone headed inside for a chance for all the students to perform for their parents. Trinity and Kalyn were both in the "preschool" section of VBS, so they got to be up on stage together. They did wonderfully!! It was very fun to see them singing together - right next to each other, actually (which was VERY helpful for the picture taking).
Kalyn & Trinity with their good friends, Ivey and Owen.
After the musical demonstrations, we were all treated to a video that was compiled with tons of shots from the week. It was great to see what had been going on throughout the various classes. The night ended with a yummy ice cream dessert.
I have to give a huge thank you to our amazing friend Ginger who organized a great VBS week. Trinity, Kalyn and Xander all had great teachers!! I can tell that they both soaked in a lot. Trinity has come home a number of days asking if we can talk about how to become a Christian and what that means. Today during dinner, Trinity was asking what something meant and Kalyn interjected with, "Well, what does the Bible say?" As they were heading to bed, I was warning them that they needed to be quiet and go to sleep. Kalyn responded with, "I want to do the good thing. It's good to do the good thing." It's always encouraging to see a small glimpse of God's Word taking root in their hearts.
