A Church Picnic

We had a church picnic last Saturday.

While the guys played football, we had sack races with the children.


Next we had a scavenger hunt.
Here one of the teams sets off to find the items on their list.
Another team comes from the chicken house after getting an egg - one of the items on the list.
The hunt finished, everyone gathers to show what they found.
One of the items on the list was "a yellow leaf".
Visiting


One of the games was a relay race in which everyone was assigned a different way to get to the goal and back.
Edyn and Laura jump...
...Benny crawls...
...Wes and Samuel hop on one foot...
...and David and James crabwalk.
Three-legged races are always a fun picnic game.

Roasting marshmallows



This picture is so funny!  Patrick's marshmallows caught on fire, and he looks at them in distress as Rebekah blows out the flames.  :)
We finished out the evening singing hymns around the campfire accompanied by James on the violin.
