Welcome to VBS!
The absolutely most exhausting week of the summer. A lot of little ones (which isn't really bad, we had them all for Totus Tuus as well) coupled with even more chaos and an unorganized group of adults running it. I've been at other parishes and it's been a little more organized, but there always seems to be at least one thing they didn't think of. Maybe that's just what you get when you've 100 little kids (or 400 like the other parish) running around expecting to have an entire week of the most fun ever!
The youth are in charge of the games at our VBS, and have been for years. So I had them sign up, but didn't expect to have twice as many show up. Now we've got 11 teens to do the work of probably 4 people. This doesn't get more work done, it gets less!
So the craziness ends tomorrow after going to Mass with all the rowdy kids at a VBS picnic. THEN, actual vacation starts!
A week-long Mission Trip seems to be more exciting and more relaxing! Headed there SUPER early on Sunday morning! Now off to pick up our 'got swagg?' t-shirts!
