Vacation Bible School Decorations

by admin on June 15, 2010

This week is VBS at our church First Baptist Church Richardson Texas.  We are using the Lifeway theme Saddle Ridge Ranch.  What a great theme for decorating . . . especially living in Texas.  We were able to use many items from our homes along with the wonderful ideas provided by Lifeway.  I am excited to see what wonderful things God has in store for the kids this week. 

The open area of our children’s building is used for gathering the preschool aged kids for missions, group time and puppets.  We used the theme to come up with three sets:

  1. The mission’s area is the Mission Porch
  2. The middle is a camp scene
  3. The puppets stage is a rock cave.  I know the kids will love it.  

Here are a few pictures of how it turned out.  If you are hosting a VBS at your church hope these ideas help.  I have also added a few pictures from the class room I am teaching.

At that time I had no idea what I was [...]

If I had a Pretend Mommy…

April 12, 2010

This was a crazy Monday morning in our house. My almost 4 year old was up several times between 4:00 and 6:30, which automatically put us in a bad mood before the alarm went off. In the process of getting my husband out the door, myself ready for work and Audrey ready for school she stopped and looked [...]
