Drema and Derrek were Dylan's teachers at VBS. Didn't Derrek do a fabulous job with the room decorations?
Brandi & I just held Dylan and Jacob in our laps for the first part of story time this night since the table was so full and the boys just ate their papers anyway!
Dylan LOVED the froggy puppet! He gave it a hug!
That is Derrek, almost! He is so tall I didn't get all of him in the picture.
Derrek made this 'air bubble' for the kids to get in. He did this at something the WV school system hosts called Teen Institute, where they learn a variety of things.
The carnival tent where the kids would pick out their nightly treats from a bag.
The Ferris wheel. I meant to go back and get a better picture of it, but forgot about it on that last night.
Time to dance! This was the dance room.
Singing "Be careful little eyes what you see....." with Lowella.
Dylan is shadowing Kaleb!
All the kids had a blast and I think things went pretty smoothly. Each group moved from class to class instead of just doing everything in one room like we used to do when I was little! They have been doing it this way for a while now, and I don't know why we didn't think of it sooner. Each group does basically the same thing X amount of times instead of one teacher doing all the things they do upstairs: story, dance, snack, crafts, etc. Stay tuned for the last set of VBS pictures!

Yes, Derrek did an excellent job with the decorations. The kids seem to be pretty interested. And, of course, he hugged the Frog. IT IS GREEN!!! Love the carnival tent - too creative. The ferris wheel looks pretty good, too. All in all, it looks like the little boy had a great 1st VBS experience. I guess he wasn't ready to do the "Chester" dance tho. I gotta go to bed. Well, first, I gotta take a bath - water has been ready for an hour, probably needs warmed. See you good folks later. Love you muchly!
Looks like you all had a wonderful VBS for the kids! That's great, and also great that you had such a good turn out!

Derek outdid himself! He is one very talented young man. Our church is so blessed to have him. Hope he stays close by when he gets out of college. He will make a great director when Dreama gets ready to hang it up. Not that she is old, of course. She's my age!! Grammy
