Bible School Week in Weatherford

 We traveled to Weatherford for a week in July to visit family and attend the Evetts' VBS in Corn. This is our third year, and it was just as great as the last two.


We drove to Weatherford Sunday afternoon, and the kids went to their first night of VBS on Sunday evening. They always look forward to Granny's snacks after VBS each night. 

On Monday we spent most of the day in Cordell playing with our friends. The girls set up a hair salon, put on a play and played together all day. 
They took a quick break from playing to eat lunch. 

Their snack for evening at VBS was fruit in these cute goblets. They got to take them home and were toasting each other as we left that night. 

We spent some time with Matt's parents on Tuesday. The kids found some fun toys to play with. 


We were back at the Evetts on Wednesday. The next generation is playing Seven Wonders now. I love it!
We spent Wednesday afternoon swimming together and then were back at VBS that evening. 









Thursday we spent a few hours at Momoo's house. Katherine rocked out on the guitar. We had a good visit which always includes pizza and chocolate cake. 





Katherine came back and crashed on Thursday afternoon. We played some games with Granny and Grandaddy that afternoon too. Rummikub, Fast Track and Skipbo are our favorites. 
The kids also built a fort in the basement. It took me back to my childhood. Jeremy and I built lots of forts down there too. 

They each had their own room in their fort. 



When Katherine woke up she built a mountain with a waterfall to contribute. 

Thursday evening was the last night of VBS. It went so quickly!


The kids had a little program Thursday night and sung some of the songs they had learned that week. I love hearing their little voices singing truth about God's Word. 










So grateful that my kids have made such core memories with their great grandparents. What a gift!
The kids showed us all the fun things they did during the week. 
And Katherine was star struck when she got to talk to the princess and touch her crown. 

We took a picture of all the kids before saying goodbye. Such a wonderful group of kiddos!
We drove home on Friday morning. Katherine had to say goodbye to her bunnies- Bunny and Choo Choo. She always gets so attached to them during her visits to Granny and Grandaddy's house. 
We were grateful for such a fun filled week of summer.
