Church Picnic and Activity Day

This is a shot of one of the walls on the walk down to the river trail where our picnic was held. I wanted to get a little bit of the autumn color. The colors are starting to come out here, and there are some places where there are more trees and it looks pretty. This is me in a pile of us. It was like a three-legged race, but they had us tie four people together and run it that way. We got going a little too fast and crashed. I was laughing so hard, I couldn't get up.
Here is Peyton's group in the same race. They also crashed, but I didn't get a photo of that.
A group of kids from the church. These are some of the friends Peyton and Grace have Sabbath school classes with.
This is actually part of the warm up and stretching exercises that they had us doing. But Brianna thought it would be good to have a photo to show how strong she is. She's a little thing-and I'm not!
Not much to comment on this one. Just Grace being Grace.
Peyton thought the idea behind this game was to use the long balloon as a sword, but the goal was actually to steal or pop the other person's balloon. We didn't find this out until the game had started and Peyton swung his balloon. The little girl grabbed it and eventually popped it. We were all a bit surprised. Oh well, it was all in fun! And Peyton still had fun!
He just handed it right to her-she had to be wondering what he was thinking!
We all had a fun day and it was nice to hang out with some of the church members outside of church. We enjoyed the good fall weather and getting out for the day.
