We have been experiencing two very special weeks! Last week was "Saddle Ridge Ranch"--VBS Adventure Week. I think everyone involved is totally exhausted--but so exhilarated about the experience we shared! There were 320 enrolled, and Ralph and I were responsible for providing snacks for all of the 150 teachers, and approximately 150 Preschoolers. We had blue containers for every classroom, and snacks for each teacher in that class. These boxes had to be delivered to each class by 9:15.
We had lots of good helpers. Couldn't have done it without them! Most of them have been working with us each year for 4 years!
Pressley had a tummy ache one day, and enjoyed getting lots of attention in the "snack room". The next day, even though she was feeling much better, she thought of every excuse possible to come back to visit.
All the kids( as well as the adults) wore Saddle Ridge Ranch t-shirts that were designed to look like western shirts. I doubt that we'll ever wear them again, though. Here is Evan with friends, Jonah and Walden.
Walden and Pressley are the same age--and are "big buddies".
The grade school worship team was wonderful, and taught the kids a lot of great songs.
Walden and Jonah's mom, Lisa, and our Amy were the worship leaders for Preschool. Their characters' names were Dixie and Daphne. Their skits each day were funning, but also taught a special lesson about how God always takes care of us, and how He made each of us very special and has a purpose for each of us.
Friday was the last day of VBS, and Saturday, Amy and Corin left for Costa Rica to celebrate their 10th Wedding Anniversary. We are having another great adventure!
Saturday, we made cupcakes. Poppy and Pressley made the cupcakes and GranNan iced them.
Pressley is holding the "cute little watermelon" we'll cut later.
The days have already been full, and by the end of the day, Evan and Pressley are both ready for bed!
