VBS Weekend

This past weekend we headed to a retreat center called Shocco Springs in Alabama for the Atlanta VBS. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed being with everyone one last time before moving back to Indiana. It was all bittersweet and we had a tough time saying our goodbyes to many of them as they have each found a place in our heart.

*If you ever have the opportunity to visit the Atlanta Church I highly recommend it....they are truly on fire for the Lord and welcome anyone with open arms*

Here are a few pictures from the weekend.

Caden was just so tired one afternoon that he could not finish eating his lunch. He looked up at me and said "mommy, I am so tired, I just want to go to bed". I told him he could go to bed when we got back to our room. And before I finished my lunch, he was out cold!!

Our visiting minister was Les K. from Francesville and so their whole family came. It was really wonderful and their little Lana wanted to hold Liam any chance she got. She could always make him smile too. Thanks Lana for playing with him.

This is the group that was there....I think it was 83 people. This did include Athens church as well.

The younger kids sang a song for us.

The older kids did a very very cute skit. Let me tell you...these girls LOVE to act!! Naomi....you were amazing!! (she is the one with the white curly wig on...mrs. noah) and Sheree you were a great "stuck up"!! (Sheree is on the end with earrings and sunglasses on her head)

The kids playing leap frog in the hallways and then of course finding ways to get dirty:)...can't be outside without at least getting some dirt on you or your clothes wet!
Oh Chloe....Elijah is going to miss you so much! We love you girlie girl.

This is the newest addition to the Philip and Lana S. family. He sure is a tiny little guy at a month old. Welcome to the world Avery!

Last but not least...the boys getting in a little putt putt golf before heading back to TN.

Elijah decided the course was just way to easy and had to putt putt using only one leg:)
