Baby chicks...

Monday after nap, we went over to Grandma and Grandpas house to see some freshly hatched baby chicks! 

Church picnic

Saturday was our church picnic, which everyone always loves. It's a time where we can all get together and enjoy fun, fellowship and lots of good food! This year I helped entertain the 3-6 year olds. We had a lot of fun coloring, playing and running around..... It's always fun trying to keep everyone busy. There were 25 in that age group, well except for two, Savannah and Samuel were under 3!  Wow, I was just thinking about it, The Lord has richly blessed our church to have that many little lives that we have been given to influence in righteousness!

Coloring....

The older boys playing basketball together.....football was next!

Ben filling buckets up for a water game...

All the little girls..... Plus one or so!

And the boys....with some girls mixed in! I actually think they were pretty evenly matched, boys and girls.

Some fellowshipping going on....

While I was helping with the little ones Justin watched Jonathan for me, which was a huge help....I'm thankful God doesn't give us all our children at once, only by one or two at a time! I won't lie, it was hard to make sure all those children stayed in the group and didn't wander off. But it was also fun watching them, the older ones offering to help the younger ones. The girls being girlie, playing with each others hair and motherly towards others. While the boys were being, well, just plain BOYS!

Matt's Semi...

The other day, Matt brought his work truck by for the kids to see....Every time the air brakes made their hissing sound, Savannah said "I don't like that"! She was pretty intimidated by the trucks size too.

Coon Hollo Corn Maze

Friday night we went to a corn maze about 30 minutes away.... The weather was simply beautiful, even slightly cool. All the kids had a blast, but I'd have to say the funniest part by far was when a friend got slobbered on by a cow! Actually, that was really gross.....

Seafood Festival

Saturday our family went to Cedar Key's seafood festival. It was our first time going and as we're not seafood people, it was ok, but probably won't make it a yearly event. The kids really enjoyed it though and especially liked the parade and seeing Justin's family. We enjoyed lunch together too! Thanks Grammie and Papa..... 

 

 

 

Full moon

The other night, Justin and I went for a moonlit walk. It was so beautiful, Justin got some pictures and we had some fun too!

Jonathan 9 month old!

The other day I took the kids out to our neighbors field and got some pictures of Jonathan. He was such a good boy, and very easy to work with....... Jonathan is our little sweetheart. He is so smart for his age, and very active. He already is walking along things and is always on the go. The other night I caught him opening and closing Savannah's potty chair, playing in it( guess I need to make sure that's always clean now)! He's also started to babble, which is just way to cute. We love this little man to death and can't imagine life without him.
