A Fun Afternoon!

Last Friday, Mama took all the children (with the exception of Ryan and I) to the park.

It was a lovely afternoon for them. The children played in the forest-like area of the park, until someone heard a strange noise. Crack! That quickly ended the adventure, and the children were soon sitting close at Mama's side. She had just been thinking about gathering them up to read a bit of Scripture, but how do you get an adventuresome, energy-filled group of children to come sit down? The Lord has it all taken care of before we even think to ask. It was a really special time!

After the reading, Mama spied several, piles of colorful leaves, strewn around the park. "Let's play Jack In The Box," she exclaimed. (This game was one of my favorites, when I was a little girl.) A great game for fall!

Pretending to be statues. (We discovered that Joshua is afraid of heights!)
