Church picnic



Sunday our church had a service outside at an amphitheatre and park, and then had an all-church picnic afterward. It was a really great time and the weather was perfect--not too hot or too cold. God answered some prayers because it rained a bit overnight and was overcast when we woke up.

Here are the boys, in their booster seats on the lawn, waiting for the service to start. I was wondering how long they would last in sitting through the service. About 25 minutes. Joel could have made it longer but Jesse was being a negative influence :). It didn't help that they saw Zac on the stage and continually asked to go see him. During a time of silent prayer, Jesse yelled out how cute he looked in his own sunglasses (yes, still the glasses) and Joel loudly asked if it was time to go in the inflatable bounce house...I tried to be stern but inside I was laughing...these days will go by so quickly.
And yes, if anyone is especially observant, Joel's booster seat is pink. We just got another one since Jesse decided he's too old for a highchair now and when I picked up the blue one at the store, they both insisted they wanted the pink. Zac tried to protest but I told him we could sure use a little pink around our house. Plus, maybe a little Hicks' girl will get to use it some day!
