What a week!!

Vacation Bible School is always so intense, but really intensely fun as well. Throughout the week, we arrive by 4:30, rehearse, eat with our church family, and enjoy drama, music, crafts, games, snacks, movie time, and the store. Our theme for VBS this year was "Amazing Aviation," and our skit featured two pilots vying for sponsors in a national air competition. I played "Rosie," a tough airline mechanic with a firm faith in God. At the end of the week, Rosie got to lead another character to Christ-- very cool!! During the week, we balanced interacting with the kids, signing our character cards, and frantically rehearsing for the next segment of our ongoing skit. We really went crazy with our special effects this year... explosives, visual comedy, and sound effects...

Meanwhile, Chelsea served as a "flight attendant," and Emmy and Ellie-Kate got to enjoy all of the stations. Britti covered for Chelsea on Tuesday night, and Roger came as a visitor on Thursday night. Thus, VBS-- 2012 was very much a family affair :)

Can't wait until next year!
