VBS is here! :)

For many many summers I have loved and looked forward to VBS! I loved it as a kid and I love it as an adult! This difference... I now am a leader instead of a student! This year I am a team leader for K-1st grade.  This is my favorite age group and I love working with these little kids!
VBS starts next week and that means this week is preparation time! Our theme is Gold Rush (as you will be able to tell from the pictures!) and it is going to be amazing!

My Team name is "The Gems" and we as leaders are to make a sign so the children can find their group! 

Some gems and some glue! 

And a lot of glitter! 

The final product! I just have to put it on a stake so it can go above my head!

Earlier in the week I had to make my costume! This was very much fun!!!

This is my skirt! 4 yards of fabric, a little elastic, and some sewing! I love it and am so excited to wear it! 

This is my outfit! I was able to get a shirt for $5 at the goodwill! 

I found these at the goodwill too! For $4! I think they are the perfect earrings!  

It is very gathered but I have some black ribbon for a belt and it looks very good!

Well I know this has nothing to do with Colorado but, to me it does.  I am leaving in 12 day (Yikes!) and I'm so excited to spend my last week working with my church family in VBS! Next week will be crazy (I haven't even started packing) but I know it will be one to remember!
