Summer - Day 1

Yesterday was our first real day of summer and it was off to a great start!
The kids have Vacation Bible School this week. Campbell was really excited since it is at her school and two of her friends were going to be in her class, but Brandt was a little unsure. I dropped them off, promising it would be fun and Blake and I went to run some errands.
We picked them up three hours later, singing songs and ready to tell me all the things they had done and learned. We headed to Chick Fil A for lunch and playing (along with half of the VBS moms) and they told me all about Peter going to jail and God sending angels to set him free. They are studying the book of Acts this week and yesterday was all about Peter.
Later in the day my friend Jennifer's car broke down and we rescued her kids and had them over to play. Six kids in one house was a bit crazy, but they all survived!
The kids ended the day playing school. They couldn't wait to get out of school and then on the first day of summer - they are playing school.

When Will got home later he asked the kids what they learned at VBS. Brandt was telling the story of Peter and Will reminded him jokingly that it was not really about his Oom Pete, but about another Peter. Brandt's response was "Dad, this didn't just happen. It was a long time ago - like in the '10s." It could be worse I guess - he could have said the '70s. They couldn't wait to go back for more VBS today!
