vacation pt. 3—the birthday party

Saturday, we headed over to Lucas’ birthday party. He turned one and the party was fish themed. My boys loved that part. They got to go fishing. Azariah actually caught the very first fish, but wouldn’t you know it…i didn’t have my camera ready. So here’s one of Zion’s fish instead.

Glorianna takes a drink of Capri Sun, to cool off.

“Smile, Marie!”

Azariah and Renee are partners for the 3 legged race. They won the practice round…

Then Azariah paired up with Esther for the real race, because Renee decided not to do it. They won the first round…

…and Zion and Zach won the second round.

After the 3 legged race, the kids went inside the shelter to play “Feed the worm to the fish”.

Azariah shows off his prize for winning the game.

After the party , we all went over to Ben and Sharon’s (the parents of the bday boy). That was loads of fun. The fellowship was great, the food was great…it was a wonderful time.

We had originally planned on going to church with everyone on Sunday, but after finding out that their church was an hour away we thought…make the kids sit for 1 hour on the way to church , then sit 2 hours in church, then put them in the truck for another 8 hours…It didn’t sound like it was very fair to the kids. So Sunday moring we packed up and headed home.

That’s about it i guess. We are now home and still trying to catch up on sleep…or at least I am.

Thanks so much Bob, Monica, Ben and Sharon for the fellowship and fun. Its our turn to return the favor…come on up guys!!
