McGann Life: Amazing Wonders Aviation

Whew! VBS is over! What a busy and fun week! Our kids adore VBS week. They have such a blast, and LOVE it! Aedan said one day during the week, "I wish VBS was 3,000 days!" Oh my, I don't think I could handle that. :) Josiah had Mrs. Sherry for his teacher, and Aedan had Mrs. Cindy (with Vivian). They both had great teachers and we are VERY thankful to them all!

I taught the 5th and 6th grade girls with Teresa and Sharon. I love working with both of them. They are both so laid-back, and easy to work with. Our thoughts are often on the same page, and that always makes things easier. We had 20 girls! Wow! I've been a teacher of this age group for 3 years, and this is the most we've had. It made it a little interesting on our field trips, but all the logistics worked out fine and we were able to get where we needed to be. On Monday, we went to Burgess Falls, on Tuesday-Cookeville Pregnancy Center, Wednesday-around town for the video scavenger hunt, Thursday-pool day, and Friday-some of our group went to the hospital and some went to a nursing home.

Here are the girls! All 20 of them!

Family night

Mercy with some girls at family night. Mercy loves her girl time!

Our room was Sutherland Falls. (in New Zealand) Our neighbor, Evan, let me borrow his boat! It looked great in the room:)

Our sign above the door of our room. On a side note, when hanging this sign (on a ladder), I burned my arm with hot glue! (I won't show a picture-kind of gross.) A third degree burn...I kind of froze when it happened, and I was on a ladder. So, I went to satellite med that Friday afternoon. The burn is healing on my arm, but it is slow going. Last year, the Friday before VBS, I went to Satellite Med for strep! Satellite Med is the place for me to be before VBS! Who knows what will happen next year?!
