This month Xavier attended 2 different Vacation Bible Schools. Each one was a week long, 3 hours each morning. This was the first time he attended any kind of structured program for 5 days in a row. He was tired at the end of the week, but he had SUCH a good time. He came home every day singing and dancing and with a handful of crafts he had made. I love that he had so much fun learning about God!
Each VBS had a closing program. So cute! (He is the one dead center in this picture with the gray shorts on). The first VBS theme was SonRise and they turned the church into a wilderness campsite complete with artificial Christmas trees!
The second VBS was at the church where X goes to preschool. He was excited to have some of his preschool friends in his group. The theme there was Sky and everything was decorated with clouds and airplanes and balloons. (Terrible picture since it reflected off the stage lighting, but he's the one in front in the black shorts)
Wesley was chomping at the bit to be able to go to VBS with Xavier. He just couldn't understand that he wasn't old enough. I felt bad for him, so we kept talking about when he turns 4 he will get to go to VBS. He did get in on a few pictures and the closing program.
I am so thankful to all the volunteers at these churches that put so much time and effort into make this an awesome week for all the kids. They definitely had an impact on Xavier. He's been walking around the house singing "It's gonna be a cool cool summer...learning to trust in Jesus!" and many other songs from the week.
