After we got back from our big Ohio vacation, it became clear to mama that Henry needed an outlet. Unfortunately, we've been experiencing record breaking heat and mama is a pale, sweaty, pregnant woman from up north. (She's not handling it well.) We're all getting a little stir crazy, so mama started calling around to see which Vacation Bible Schools would take Henry.
First up: a joint venture between the Methodists, Episcopals, and Catholics over at the Methodist mega church. VBS has come a long way from when mama was a kid. No more "B-I-B-L-E." The theme for this VBS was "Galactic Blast" and, to quote the website: "At Galactic Blast VBS, cadets will voyage into outer space prasing God. Through daily Bible missions, kids will see space like never before, gain a new perspective on our planet Earth, and learn easy "green" earth tips they can practice at home. "
That's a lot to fit into one week.
On Thursday night, there was a big program to show off what the kids had learned during the week. First off, the littler kids sang a simple song. You can totally hear Henry singing in this video! He's really come a long way since his days of standing still with a finger in his belly button.
Then there were the choreographed songs that were broadcast on the jumbo-trons in the church (told you it was a mega church). Henry really put a lot of effort into this choreography. He's still singing this song this week. Our favorite part is the cute little pink girl two down from Henry who cries through the whole song.
Finally the older kids performed another song for us.
Mama loved this song and the dancing.
After the program, there was an ice cream party!
I picked out my socks and shoes. Summery, right?
Papa caught a shot of mama. Looking huge, lady. Lucky there was ice cream there to help with the heat.

Lucky for us, we have 2 more weeks lined up, plus two mornings a week at the Presbyterian church for the whole month before the baby comes!
