Family Fun Day

This past Saturday, before JR's intensive class week and our trip to Tallahassee, we took time to spend the day as a family.

We headed over to Bartlett to the Toys-R-Us to get Gideon his bicycle. However, they only had the Iron Man bike on-line, so we didn't actually leave with one.

But as we left, we drove past a remote-controlled car race. Of course we stopped, got out, and watched. We cheered for our favorite colored car.







After a nap in the afternoon we had plans to go to an italian festival right around the corner. Our new friends, the Kinney's, had a way to get in for free. So, we loaded up and went. And 5 min. after we got in, it started raining. And 5 min. after that, we bought a $5 funnel cake which we shared under a tree to stay relatively dry. And 5 min. after that, we ended up back at the bbq of the people who got us into the festival. We joined these friends of our friends and dealt with the post-rain humidity and bugs.

Here's how G felt about the weather:




The kids got in on the game...




And this is Becca Kinney. We are really enjoying getting to know her and her husband, Jon.

Well, we'd planned on getting a bike. And didn't. And planned to hang out at the italian festival, and didn't. But it was still a pretty good family fun day.
