My kids all went to VBS and loved it. This brought back such good memories. Thanks for sharing.

[@bobbycoleman9457]

I think your husband looks even more handsome without the beard. Very nice! ❤Claire (Bobby's wife)

[@valeriereneeharper]

I prefer beards, in general, even for my husband lol

[@blessed4737]

You had way too much fun with the graphics in this video. 😁 this video was so well done and fun to watch. 😊 i love how you take us along with you as a friend, rather than trying to tell us how to do everything. You have such a fun and beautiful spirit, you definitely played the character in the play to perfection 👌🏻

[@TAMMYRICHMOND-ll8xb]

Great video. I think your husband looks better without his beard. He is handsome.

[@paigereinhart5445]

We had the great jungle journey a few weeks ago, too! We love how Answers' VBS are rooted in scripture through the songs and everyday reiterating of the verses. Thanks for sharing!

[@ednatroyer1307]

Great job vlogging the week of VBS!!! I literally laughed out loud when I heard you rattling down the isles of the grocery store. Did my heart good because it's usually me that always picks the load carts!!! Till next time rest up and enjoy your family!!

[@kareneakers9540]

I went to vacation Bible school when I was little and I absolutely loved it! All good memories! Your little boys are soooooo cute! Thanks for sharing your week with us at VBS it was so fun to watch! God bless

[@anitaclevenger7640]

Thanks for taking us along. Your VBS is so much like ours. We don't have a drama, that was awesome. You all did a great job ❤

[@LisaGoss-cq1xw]

😄😄Fun video, our church is having VBS this week! I completely agree it's always so fun, full of energy and excitement but exhausting at the same time!!!

[@anothermomma1379]

You are the best, love love the perfect drama acting! Daryl looks much better with a beard but he fit his role spendidly

[@sherry1253]

That was so fun to watch.....and so what I learned is animals will be in heaven-I may see my dog again??? Cool!!!! And your hubby can pull off a beard and no beard-he looked GREAT!

[@valeriereneeharper]

If those skits are fully recorded, I would love to see the whole thing 😂 I LOVED VBS when I was little, brought back so many memories ❤️ This might be my favorite video on this channel so far haha but it’s also a long video which are my favorite!

[@abbymyer]

I would love to see the whole thing too! Kim, you are hilarious!!!

[@tinabeam7180]

Daryl looks fine no matter what: you look so much younger. VBS was such fun for me as a kid, I went to our local VBS’s. They are still poignant memories I have and I love that. My husband and I used to help out with our churches VBS. Truly moments we enjoyed! It’s your marriage but I like your hubby either way. My husband looks so much younger when he shaves. Sometimes it’s a shock.

[@veronicahuddleston7060]

Your husband looks awesome! With, or without his beard. You two are a beautiful couple. ❤

[@momoflittleladies]

We LOVE VBS - so many great memories are made and so many sweet thoughts/truths placed into little hearts. Im glad your church does VBS. My girls were so scared when my husband shaved his beard!

[@JulieMK-fi4ov]

Without his beard, I can see better how much the boys look like him 😊

[@michelletapsell7507]

Well done, Kim. It was very interesting. Great job. Thank you for adding this extra work to your already busy week.❤

[@ritabaker3113]

You have precious little boys!! God bless your dear family

[@KathyCrenshaw]

Kim, you’re a natural! I’ll be looking for you in the movies! Lol

[@barbarapeterson8030]

Happy Tuesday Kim and family! I absolutely loved this video. I am a new sub. I did not see your husband's beard, however, I will say he looks handsome without it. Thanks for sharing all the things. SHARED TO THE BURGH*STTB*Pittsburgh PA

[@AnnaBKrahn]

I enjoyed this video, oh so very much! The rattely cart, always me!! Great job vlogging!! Your snacks look so delicious. You have such a talent in making your food look so yummy and delicious, almost too beautiful to eat.

[@brendahautaluoma624]

I agree with others! Your hubby looks more handsome without the beard! Let him be clean shaven 👍 Don't worry I'm old enough to be his mom! 😉 and great recipes!

[@candyrenee2152]

This was a fun video! Looks like VBS was a huge success!

[@MarthaUnger-n5u]

Wow that was a fun video to watch! Thanks for even filming on such busy days! Your doing great work ☺️🥰

[@ellenmartin1225]

We did The Great Jungle Journey, also! This was our second year using Answers in Genesis, and we've really enjoyed it! (Our church tries not to include images of Jesus, and we noticed a few of those in the curriculum, but otherwise we've been pleased.) We have always had a music time for the children outside of the opening/closing, but we subbed in the science portion of the curriculum, and the children loved it!

[@alisondoughty2194]

Lovely fun vlog.Your husband looks so youthful without his beard.😄🎉

[@juliecrouch7485]

I like Darrel without the beard. I think he actually looks older.

[@amyg4999]

Thank you for doing this video. Also thank you for teaching at VBS this year. I personally believe VBS is very good for kids it pulls those in that may not know the Lord and also helps the ones that do learn more. So again thank you both! ❤

[@carolynnbugaiski8684]

Wonderful channel. Loved today’s content. It’s been awhile since our kids went to VBS. Our youngest is forty years old. It brought back such wonderful memories. Children are such blessings. We enjoyed our children so much growing up. May God bless and keep you all. Your sister in Christ Carolynn

[@DebraE.Carlson]

I think Darrell looks better without a beard! Handsome fellow😊

[@jirranna]

Great vlog!! Just wish I could hear the full drama sets.😄

[@marthak9360]

That looks like so much fun! Awesome job on the drama and also on all of those snacks - wow! I wish my church did something like that, it seems amazing! God bless you and your family!

[@SharonHenscheid]

He looks great with no beard 💯

[@natalieshuburte9484]

This was my favorite video yet ❤

[@cindiallain8542]

Hi Kim, Did you say a Mama of 2 boys? What happened to the 3rd one? Lol Darryl my son had a full beard at 15 in Jr high. I like the beard too. I’ve been at churches where they have prizes. It makes it so fun for the kiddos. Always check the carts first. lol just to let you in on a secret…..I got dizzy while you were driving. But it was a fun dizzy. Like going up and down big hills. Tea is missing ice. Kim, I love long videos. 113 student. That’s awesome! Wonderful video. Thank you. The week is always exhausting.

[@amanda.k13]

0:41 If you go back and watch the intro again, she says “…wife, I’m a mama to 3 little boys…”😊

[@darlenecook2262]

This video was so fun to watch! I would love to see the whole vbs skit if you have it recorded. Thanks for sharing!❤

[@deeh7105]

Thank you so much for sharing this week with us! Loved every minute of it!

[@mt1885]

[@dotgoodwin4312]

Such a cute video Kim! U all did a good job it looked like!

[@melindajoy111]

The cookies look like perfection. Thanks for posting the recipe, i wil try them!

[@SaraAbbe]

I LOVE how you hang dry your clothes ❤

[@teresabeamon9650]

You are my kind of person to hang out with. LOL! Love your sarcasm. My daughter is that way. LOL!! Love your videos and love y'all

[@GrnThmb-pw3sk]

Commenting before I even watch your video 😅 We’re doing the same VBS program this week, Jungle Journey and with almost 200 kids, it’s a lil craaaazy

[@diedresherring9367]

Wow he looks Soo different it will be ok Kim it will grow back

[@mrskop]

I taught VBS all the years my children went and I miss it. I might have to start up again in our new town. It’s hard enough learning the lyrics to the VBS songs. Kudos to you and Daryl for learning lines to the skits. Also, my husband shaved his beard one just to see if he liked it and my then 1 year old son cried. lol. He grew it back and it’s been 15 years and counting 🧔🏻‍♂️

[@sarabergen05]

I have so much I want to comment about and im only 10 minutes in😅 first off I wish I could've been there to watch the drama show, hilarious when the guy couldnt get the names right!!😂 secondly, that shopping kart had me laughing!😂 I landed the same kind of kart in Walmart just yesterday! My Goodness was it ever the loudest clunkiest cart 😳 😂 people probably though I put an engine on that thing😂

[@lesliedavis6081]

Kim you were perfect for that part! 😂

[@melodyhostetler6601]

I’m just here for Hunter 😆

[@lindahostetler4572]

Great vbs... uh oh,shouldnt have seen the recipe for cheeseball! Btw,the boys chicken noodle ? lunch looked delicious.

[@lynnwarren6127]

Your husband looks very handsome without his beard.

[@gaillaviolette6115]

Love it ..”it’s missing the taste of Dr Pepper” lol !

[@K.M.-ph1yp]

So fun to see your week of VBS Kim! Gets me in the mood for ours in a few weeks. I helped with drama when I was a teen and yeah, that is actually so much fun 🫢😄 Also, love the tip on getting the boys ready to go before naps! But I’m wondering, how do you keep their wet hair from getting crazy roosters?🤔 And OK, last question. What is it gonna take for Dr. Pepper to start sponsoring you, ya know?😂

[@wilmascott8296]

I am new I really enjoyed your channel are your boys twins so adorable so is the baby you make me laugh girl I love good channel hope you have a good rest of your week.

[@lindafrazier8799]

You husband is so cute!

[@karenmariesmith3395]

He looks so much nicer without the facial hair. And Kim, you look better with your hair parted on the side. Yous have to do you

[@davidburton1420]

Our church is doing the same VBS in July

[@ruthannhochstetler3327]

Oh you got the clikety clack cart today 😂

[@mikefriesen9369]

I personally would have liked to see more of the overall program. What were the crafts, games, snacks etc....but enjoyed the blog otherwise😊Thank you...

[@Shelly1990]

I always love getting ideas for VBS since I’m the one “in charge” of organizing it each year. It’s wonderful that you all volunteer to help! And yes, VBS week can be exhausting!!

[@Kim_Martin]

Exhausting but so worthwhile. Best of luck on your week of VBS! You got this👏

[@Shelly1990]

Thank you! Our VBS is in July.

[@agathareimer2924]

Hey I believe you did the exact same curriculum as we are doing for VBS. I'm the one that's helping direct.

[@Kim_Martin]

It's the Answers in Genesis! The great jungle journey:)

[@agathareimer2924]

@@Kim_Martin yup. The same one. I like the decorating ideas. Definitely gonna have to look at the ideas for decorations.

[@helenafrozze]

What curriculum is it?

[@mercymchugh6525]

I love your apron every time you wear it!! Can you link it? 🥰

[@rebeccanickel505]

[@sandrasykes3026]

❤️❤️❤️ it all!

[@frandemianczyk]

❤❤❤

[@Thisvillagelife]

Awe your poor husband, he looks nice 😊

[@Kim_Martin]

He definitely looks better than nice, in my opinion. 🤭🤍 it's been soooo long since I've seen him without a beard, so it took me a min 😂

[@lorrainemusser3249]

My children wish they could watch the entire drama story.

[@hippyangel784]

I love it. You still look very much a man. A more clean and thoughtful of a nice clean appearance. You have a lovely face

[@dionysiapalmer3945]

How do you decide how long to make each video..or does You Tube restrict/ limit/ or does it cost you more??? I like you style of videoing..not highly polished...its meant to be a compliment!!! Tell us more about Indiana...I'm from South Australia so know v v little about your state

[@jray8553]

It's missing the flavor of Dr Pepper lol

[@lucretiawrolstad3997]

Might have been a little easier for the boys as you if you would have watched him and they would have watched him shave it off then they would have known it was still daddy

[@carolharris1821]

Did you say mom of 2 I think you miss spoke their are 3 very little boys

[@Kim_Martin]

🤭 did I say 2!? Goodness. There are most definitely 3!

[@amanda.k13]
