VBS & 4H Fair

Sporting two pig tails!

Enjoying the oldies concert at the county summer concert series.

This week was VBS at our church. Mommy led a crew while Amelia attended. Austin & Colleen were in the toddlers/preschool room. We had so much fun but it was exhausting. We were on the road every morning at 730am and didn't get home until close to 1pm. Even Amelia took naps, we were all so tired each day. We weren't permitted to take photos during VBS, but Austin loved this hat and wore it constantly.

One of the sweet girls in my crew gave me this card on the last day of VBS.

The sweetness before the aggravating, I'm sure....

Doors are her favorite.

Goldiblocks fun

The week we look forward to all year was finally here - the 4H Fair! It was a little disappointing since Daddy was gone all week, and VBS prevented our going in the mornings. But we made the most of it one evening. Some friends walked over with us and we crammed in as much as we could in a few hours.

Digger fun

In an ambulance

Dreaming of rockets

The flight simulator is definitely meant for bigger kids. But he had fun trying.

Colleen enjoyed her Mrs. Sarah snuggles.

It wasn't too busy in the robotics tent; one of the sponsors came over and asked Amelia if she would like to control the robot. I was so nervous that she would damage it, but he told me it had already been seriously cracked earlier that day! The teens were really patient in explaining how it all worked. The kids had fun!

Hey! I know what these are!

Watching the new chicks

It took the kids awhile to figure out that this was a mechanical pony.

Chocolate milkshake treat at the end of our evening

At the end of VBS, I asked the directors if I could take home one of the posters that was doomed to be trashed. Austin is so excited to have it hanging in his room.
