This past week the girls and I have been at Vacation Bible School at our church. Kylie had a wonderful time and it has been so much fun listening to her every night attempting to sing all the songs she learned that day. It is SO Cute!
Sidney handled it very well. She thankfully would let others hold her for a few minutes so I could get something done and she even took hour long (or longer) naps each day in the church nursery! Yea! There were so many songs sung, games played, snacks had, and crafts made. It was fun.
The theme this year was Tell It On The Mountain. So the whole idea of how climbing gear keeps you safe and secure while climbing, so God keeps you safe & secure in your life.
We had tents and mountains and rocks everywhere and the last day the National Guard came and set up their climbing wall. I lot taller than I thought it would be, since we had 4yr olds - 5th graders. But all but 2 kids climbed it and each kid that climbed got to have 2 turns on it. They had so much fun! I even climbed it and made it all the way to the top. I thoroughly enjoyed it! :) There were even a few of the older boys who made it to the top. It was tons of fun!
I was so proud of Kylie trying to climb up it too! The poor girl needs a little more upper body strength, and some weight! When she would fall off the rock, she wasn't heavy enough to have the spring system lower her to the ground! The second time she climbed, she got high enough that the guardsman had to climb up a little bit and grab her harness and pull her back to the ground! :)
Hope all is going well. I haven't been posting much since we were busy with this, and because I can't get the darn pictures to work!
