Scavenger Hunt Sunday

Happy Father's Day!

This week's scavenger hunt items were
  1. Summer
  2. Dance
  3. Laughter
  4. Helper
  5. Water

Summer

Although it's not technically summer yet, we've already had a few summer storms...



Fortunately, the storms did not coincide with our church's VBS activities, such as the obstacle course.

The balance beam was Grace's (age 7) favorite part!

Dance

Did I mention it was VBS week at our church?  There was the music portion, where the children learned sign language (for the most part) to help them learn the songs.

Laughter

There was a lot of laughter and squeals and cheering and generally a whole lot of noise as kids cheered on their teammates.

Helper

Robert (16) has been playing guitar for the VBS music classes for a few years now...so he makes my helper shot.


On Family Night, the children sang some of the songs they had been learning during the week at VBS.

Water

OK...I'm going into the archives for these photos.  A couple of months ago, the kids spotted some local firemen testing out some equipment.  You can see the water falling at the back of the open bay window. It kept us entertained for a few minutes.  :)



This is a bonus archive photo for water, and is one of my favorites of Grace.  She's 5 here.


Want another bonus photo?  Here's Robert's guitar that he's playing in the photos above--he bought it last month, and this was the day it arrived.

  2. Lovely collection of photos. The storm cloud shot is awesome.
    I don't even know if our church is doing VBS this year, which is really sad. It looks like you guys had a great time. I love when they learn motions or signs to go with the songs and even the memory verses. Have to say, I love your bonus photo of Grace, I can see why it is one of your favorites.

  4. VBS is always a fun time for the kids. - Your laughter shot was so cute. It's great your son helps out with Guitar playing. Loved both your water shots too.
