Vacation Bible School
















Samantha went to Vacation Bible School at our church the week of June 14th. The theme for this year was "King of the Son - A Prayer Safari." The kids went on a safari and also learned the words to The Lord's Prayer. Samantha had a wonderful time. We invited some of her friends from outside her Sunday School class, so that was fun for her. There were 3 children of former Humboldt residents (2nd to last picture)- Aston Blazer (son of Holly (Straw) Blazer), Samantha, & Drew Moyer (son of Alison (Hammon) & Josh Moyer) - so that was really neat! I was in charge of crafts this year: Day 1 - safari picture frame, Day 2 - African necklace, Day 3 - safari sunset sand jars, Day 4 - maracas or drums, Day 5 - safari suitcase. Next year I'm in charge of the whole VBS - so keep your fingers crossed for me! :) The very first night, Samantha fell during "recreation time" and split her knee and both palms of her hands up pretty good. She recovered nicely, after walking around the house very awkwardly for a few days. Doug was also involved in VBS this year, as he had to participate in the little skits for the opening part every night of VBS. Doug also did 65 iron on shirts for the kids/adults, which kept him VERY busy. On Father's Day Sunday, the kids sang songs and Doug did skits for the congregation. Samantha was very cute and new all the words to the songs - very impressive for a 3 year old! She even learned the words to The Lord's Prayer over the week!
