Today was the last day of vacation bible school. It was a wonderful week. Our theme was Outrigger Island. I just learned what exactly an outrigger is. We learn new things every day. I really loved this theme b/c I have always wanted to go to a tropcal island! Me and another girl decorated the sancutary. A lot of it was her idea from the vbs books. I came up with some ideas also but she had the bulk of it. I have worked with her the past two years in the craft room. She use to be an art teacher but now owns her own Ceramic Shop. She is so wonderful with kids. It was just fun working together and creating a tropical island. I was the craft teacher for grades 1st-5th. All the kids had a good time making their week long projects. It was very busy every moment but it was fun. Emily had a good time and didn't cry this year. She just clung to my leg a little. She just does it for me b/c once I leave she is fine. I believe we had about 20 children accept Jesus as their personal Savior and one of the leaders. It is just wonderful news to hear especially when the child is so young. The impact they can make around their world can be so strong. Kaitlyn had a good time too although you wouldn't be able to tell it the first morning when I took their picture. All the third graders made paper mache parrots. It was interesting watching them paste the goo on their balloons. I thought i would hear a few not wanting to do it b/c of that but everyone had a good time. In about 2 weeks our church has music camp. I am going to help with this also. I really enjoy helping in church and seeing the kids growing and becoming more aware just how awesome God is!!
