It’s Ain’t All Dripping Popsicles

In about 30 minutes, the girls and I will leave for our second evening of Vacation Bible School (VBS). I know everyone thinks it’s geared for “little kids,” but I swear we’ve had more fun with it as the girls have gotten older.

Of course, it’s Julia’s first VBS.  Originally, we hadn’t planned to take her.  Thought it might be too much for her.  But after how well she’s done in Sunday School – and seeing how much she wants to be around kids her age – we decided to give it a try.

Lois and her (equally goofy) friend Sam taught Julia how to “boogie woogie” in the sanctuary as beach balls flew around the room.

Hannah and friends Bailey (pictured) and Kaylynn switched nametags with each other.  Now I’m sure the teacher was confused based on appearance alone.

Lois spontaneously volunteered herself to assist on stage in group worship.  I’m thinking if the whole lawyer thing doesn’t work out for her, she’s got a career in televangelism.  Anyone up for biting the heads off a few live chickens?

A little lower now!  Julia and fellow limbo-ers during their music time.

Rachel – flanked by friends Mallory and Michelle – joined other youth in supervising recreation in the gym.  “Youth” and “supervising”….ummmm…time to scoot.

When we were driving home last night, we asked Julia if VBS was fun.  She understands the word “fun.”  Answer:  “Da!”  Rachel, Lois, Hannah and I give VBS a “da,” too.  So, cast off, mates - we’re off for another evening at “Son Treasure Island!”

    We’re all having a blast this year. Julia looks as though she’s been doing it for years. It’s great to see all of you every night hauling yourselves in……..all 5 Woodworth girls. Thanks for the pics…keep them coming.!!!!

  • Kate:

    VBS – brings back many fond memories. Miss Julia – so many *firsts* and if I didn’t know better I’d think she had been a Woodworth girl 4-ever the way she seems to take it all in stride and blossom b4 our eyes. Hannah, darlin’ – you got me. I didn’t even recognize you in pic w/o your real name plastered to your tee. Rachel and co. in charge. Hmmm, the last VBS I attended with 14′s and 15′s *supervising* (refreshment time it was) – they snipped the points off the bottom of 200 sno-cones before loading on colorful syrup and handing them out. I feel safe relating this cuz I didn’t see any pics of sno-cone machine and Rachel & crew are way more intelligent than the ones I refer to, so I’m confident they could come up with something even more impressive if they were so inclined. Now I have a ??? about Lois. Can she handle snakes? I hope lots of stray kids show up who don’t have a family like yours and really need to hear about Jesus! God bless them all – the ones who are usually there and the ones who aren’t. OOOXXX from Houston

  • votemom:

    your vbs sounds a lot like ours. we have about 500 kids come each year. it’s loud and crazy and wild – ours is in 2 weeks. i’m always exhausted by about thursday!! this year i’ve been summoned for jury duty the tuesday of vbs week – i’m hoping i’m excused so i don’t have to miss all the fun!

  • PoPi:

    What no update last night?

  • Sam:

    Lois looks…Evilish. That friend of hers has mad boogie woogie skillz. Julia has skillz on top of skillz though!

  • Lois:

    Sami, you were the friend. Duh! I was great up there! But the people were mean and didn**#**t sing with me…. (cries) I**#**m so emotinal!
