I'm Back!!!

Hey everyone. I'm back! VBS went great. We had around 20 kids. Not counting workers. We had songs, stories, lessons, Bible verses, and skits. It was demanding but a lot of fun and definately worth it! There is a family that goes to Palatka church that have 5 kids. Their name is the Muse family. They live over an hour and a half away so they only came Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. They stayed at the Cox's home with all of us. It was a lot of fun. There were 24 people staying in one house and 18 of them were kids! That was awesome! While they were there someone went a little crazy with markers.... Beau, Josh, and I were going to get Bethany, Mary-Frances, and Brittany Muse with markers but Josh knocked a cup of milk over and when he was cleaning it up Brittany woke up and got suspicious because Josh was right next to her head so she wouldn't go back to sleep and we gave that up for that night. The next morning we come to find out that Noah, Zach, Josh, and Nate had all been drawn on! Little Aaron, Caleb, Micah, Daniel, and Beau didn't get touched. They were naturally suspects but it wasn't any of them. Zach and Josh did it and did themselves as a blind! The next night the girls turn came and Beau, Josh, and i carried out our plan! It was great! People kept marking on other people the rest of the time we were there. Beau never got it cause all the kids knew he would get them back good! I never got it either untill one night when Beau wasn't there. Then all the kids except for Ruthie and Abby got it. They were using washable markers so it wasn't that big of a deal. All the parents thought it was funny. Nate kept getting Zach so the last day Zach got Nate good! He wrote PAYBACK! and MARKER BOY! on him. It was hilarious! Nate thought Daniel did it so he wrote Got YOU BACK! andMARKER MAN on him. Then just before we left we were playing Dutch Blitz and Zach called Nate Marker Boy. Nate's eyes flew wide open and he jumped to his feet then he realized we were still playing so he finished the game. It was a lot of fun. Sister Betsy kept saying this is just like family camp! We didn't get away till 7 something Thursday evening. The Cox kids kept trying to hide in our van. At one time we had 4 or 5 of them in there. Beau and Noah had the best hiding places and no one would have known they were there if one of the little ones hadn't given them away! Their crazy antics kept us all laughing so no one cried this time. Untill after we left. Now all of us are looking forward to the Assembly... Next weekend is our regional Convention. I wonder what it will be like this year. I guess we will find out. That's about it for now. Goodbye!
