Vacation Bible School time


She's front and center in the red shirt and white shorts




her and "Gawison"



the little one's filed in a lot neater on the rope, it was pretty cute.




she kept meeting Bri's and my eye line to make sure we were watching her, and when she'd catch eyes she just beamed she was so proud to be up front singing. :)





Yeah, Grammie got to come to her big very first musical performance!


Abigail and her darling 2 teachers from the week, the one in the green is Garrison's mom


walking in for the processional she was so excited




The pizza and popcorn party before it all got started



Abigail and her new buddy Garrison, they were too cute chasing each other around for the parents to care that he was chomping watermelon and her pizza while running .





she was so thrilled they had a "bouncy castle"


showing the camera what she made me earlier that week

all dressed in red to represent her red team tonight

Absolutely could not get out the door fast enough to get to the last day party and concert




Abigail had a great time this past week participating in her very first VBS. She went every day from 9-12 (hello, I had an awesome time too. Nice little taste of freedom) each day and by the end of the week she was exhausted but still begging to go back. They did a 'Studio Go' theme which was kind of game show centered and she learned all different kinds of Bible stories and songs. She met some friends that will be in her class of preschool this fall, one in particular was Garrison. Each day I'd pick her up a couple new volunteers would tell me what a sweet girl she is and ....did I know she had a boyfriend?? Of course at 2 yrs almost 3 now, she barely knew that Garrison was a boy just a really cool playmate. But the teachers got a kick out of the quick bond she formed w/ this little guy. They were quite the item for everyone else to enjoy all week. One lady told me in the gym one morning their 2 classes merged and across the gym floor they hollered each others names and ran into an adorable embrace that made everyone crack up! Luckily his mom was one of her teachers so she got to enjoy first hand the new friendship. One day I picked her up and Garrison screamed and cried in an all out toddler tantrum just because I was taking "dat girl" away for the day. We assured the two they can play together all next year in school. I explained to his mom when she looked a little embarassed that Abigail's used to wild little boys w/ her crazy cousins. They keep up w/ her energy so well she's just used to boys. She's still singing the darlin songs from the week and she made lots of cute crafts to brag to her Daddy as soon as he'd get home each night. Great experience and we can't wait to get into the preschool world in a couple months to let her enjoy more.
