Wow, are we busy or what? Busy in a good way, sure, but will I need a vacation after this, ABSOLUTELY!!
So I am preparing for our VBS that starts Sunday, and as usual I have waited until the last days to prepare. It’s my style, but I always seem to pull it together. I am a little disappointed that I don’t think I am going to be able to decorate the crafts area like I had planned. Time just isn’t on my side.
And the madness begins…
(1) Friday night our beautiful niece, Beth, graduates from Chiefland High School. It is such an exciting time in her life right now as not only has she had a very successful High School career, but she has received a $26,000 scholarship through the Global Citizen program. We are all so proud of her!!
(2) Saturday the girls are going riding with their Aunt Katie and then it is off to the Graduation Bash for Beth. Sadly I will have to leave the party early to work on VBS.
(3) Then the fun begins… Sunday the start of VBS!! Am I nervous, OF COURSE!! This is my first time being Crafts Director. I am just a little anxious about getting it all done. This year’s theme is Gold Rush (western, mining theme) which to me is a lot of fun. Our Joppa VBS runs Sunday through Friday night and we would love for anyone to join us (Pre-K through 8th grade.) Tonight I was able to get all of the kids shirts printed, which I am super excited about this year. Each child attending will receive a GoldRush tee shirt that we are going to spray and make awesome using squirt bottles and RIT dye. I can’t wait for that project. So fun!! Unfortunately, we will not be able to attend Friday night, Family Night, because we have Gracie’s famous D&D Dance Studio year end recital.
(4) Yep, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night we will be dancing it up. I am not exactly sure that Gracie knows the dance, but if nothing else she will stand on that stage and be the prettiest little girl up there. I am pretty sure we will get a deer in the headlights look from her at least once. Pictures to come.
(5) Then the next weekend we have a wee little man’s birthday party, Jackson Wyatt. Birthday number 2 – I have a feeling there is going to be a gigantic slide in the picture for the big day. I am sure the “big boys” will enjoy some sliding action as well. I know Matt is looking forward to it.
Whewww, I am exhausted just talking about our whirlwind coming up. What a great and fun time coming up for us!! Wish me luck with VBS – I need all the prayers I can get.
