VBS

Our church has VBS for kindergarten through 6th grade. They also have a preschool program for volunteers kids. Since we want to get more involved I decided I would volunteer so Addy could also attend.

The girls were very excited on the first, early morning. Alexa was a little shy but quickly found some friends. Addy jumped right into her class and had a fantastic time. I was assigned to snack, but also helped with registration. It was a good fit for all three of us.

During the day I didn't see Addy at all. She does report every detail of her day. She especially likes games, music and the yummy snacks. I do get to see Alexa during open program, when her group comes for snack and then closing program.

On Wednesday the girls had water day. Alexa was able to enjoy the 75 foot water slide, water balloons and a slip and slide. Addy's group was suppose to use the tiny pools to refill their sprayers. Addy decided she was going to jump in and swim. She was soaking wet in her VBS clothes. I brought her a swimsuit, but they didn't think she was going to need it. (They clearly don't know Addy very well). Overall, water day was a huge success for both girls.

Addy's favorite parts of VBS were the chickens (Dolly & Holly) and the bounce house. She also really enjoyed the youth leaders. Alexa enjoyed games and the youth leaders. Whenever I would see her group, I could spot Alexa by looking between her two favorite girls. She was always holding their hands or cuddling. When the week came to a close, we were all a little sad. It was a great week and we look forward to participating in it again next year.
