Friday Mandatory Fun!

This weekend there was a picnic in honor of the anniversary of the chaplain's corps in the military. Mandatory Fun as Tim calls it. So we went and had a great time. Jairus got to play in the bouncy toy, he really liked that.
















Not sure of what to do.
















This picture looked differently in my head. Of course I am more critical of myself than people who see this are. However, I should have redone it. It is just that I am always behind the camera, and don't get to have many pictures of us taken.














Getting ready to go down the slide!
















He is liking slides more and more. At first, he wasn't sure what to think of them. He would stick his legs out to the side and accidentally stop himself. Now he is getting the hang of it.

















My boy loves to climb!
















LOVE THIS!!!!














All in all it was a GREAT DAY!!! We got to spend time together as a family. Then we took Jairus to Grandma and PaPa's house so we could have a much much MUCH needed and deserved date. Jairus spent his first night away from home! Tim and I went out for dinner at Black Angus (thank you Leah and Brian for the gift card!) Then we browsed around at Borders Books. There are so many cool books for boys! Plus they have new workout accessories and videos from The Firm (my workout system of choice). Tim said I have enough for now Firm stuff for now. Sad face...
After that we went to see Evan Almighty. GOOD MOVIE! Better than the first. It really addresses the views secular people have on Christians in a funny way. It brings to light the stress of following what God wants us to do, and how hard it can be for the family to trust. It really hit home how we fight and fight against God's calling, when it just would be easier to submit. Anyway, it was well made. I am sure God got a laugh or too as well. Awesome date! Tim opened the car door for me, and every other door too- really made it feel like a date! I am looking forward to having another one.... Someday.
