Sunday means church day...

Today was church, which when adding a child into the mix made us a tad on the late side.  There is a good chance we would have been late anyway, but that was our excuse!  Today was also the day of our church wide picnic after church.  We had lunch and then everyone played an assortment of games ranging from Washers  to Volleyball.  It was an absolutely beautiful day outside.  I have to say that I love our church.  They have welcomed him in with open arms and were amazing to him today in helping him learn the games and accepting him even if it wasn't quite right.  I am pretty sure he played at least three games for the first time ever.

Playing ladder golf 

He also played wiffle ball for the first time ever today, getting his first ever hit ( thank you to everyone that played)!  The third game that he played for the first time was washers, which he actually beat me at the first time that I played against him this afternoon.  I did redeem myself in the second game however.

After the picnic we celebrated the birthday of "Loco Colleen" (that is what he calls her) with a birthday dinner, we then came home and took the scooters to the park and walked around the park while the three older kids rode their scooters.  We had a few stops along the way, to drop sticks in the water and watch them come out the other side, to skip rocks, and to walk out on the pier, and look at the lake!  It was a GREAT day today!
