Get on board, little children... Destination Heaven!

Sunday before last we finished up our vacation Bible School! Y'all, I still haven't recovered! (It hasn't helped that we were going strong the week before and life hasn't slowed much since...) Oh, well. Fun summer memories! But I wanted to share a few pictures of our fun VBS!

Our friend (and adopted sister) Lorie headed it up this year. She did an excellent job organizing and decorating! She had lots of help building the sets. (not a whole lot of help from me on that front, but I did wield a mean spray paint can...)

The train turned out super cute! (It was also a prop - the kids got to get their pictures taken with their bandanas and engineer hats.)


When the kids first walked in they had to make sure to get their ticket for the day at the ticket booth.


They never knew throughout the evening when the conductor (our pastor) would show up to punch tickets!


We also had a couple of hobos on our train...
 

They would trade a fun little prize for a memory verse!

Our picnic on Saturday had to be improvised... we had quite the downpour!


But we all had a blast anyway... I don't think the kids even missed the relay race!

After all, what's a relay race when there is a giant puddle to splash in?? :)

We had a wonderful time with some awesome kids, and some GREAT helpers!! (Hi, "J" family!!!!) ;) I'm already getting excited about next year! If you follow me on Pinterest, you probably already have an idea what our "working" theme is! :)
