Fourth of July and The Great Adventure

We began the month of July by celebrating our independence with mama E. and papa. We managed to get to see the Round Rock city parade before the skies opened up and blessed us with yet another thunderstorm. Here are a couple of fun pics from the parade.




Then we grilled out a wonderful dinner and took the boys swimming in the evening. We are definitely getting our use out of the neighborhood pool this summer.

The next week consisted of swimming lessons and the most fun thing our church does every summer, The Great Adventure. We hosted a Backyard Bible Club at our home every morning of the 9th - 12th. A group of teenagers led it and did an awesome job. Each one had a chance to share the gospel throughout the week to our neighbors. We had a lot of fun and had opportunities to connect more with some of our neighbors.


This is Kade with Henry, his best friend.

This was hilarious. All the other kids were just dumping their cups of water over the 2 liter, but not Kade. He was very precise, even cupping his hand on the side so that water wouldn't be wasted and spill out. He so gets that from his daddy :) And I love that about both of them.
We ended the week with SummerPfest, a big carnival at the church. I think they had somewhere between 1500 and 2000 people. Here are a couple of pics of all of us on this big inflatable slide. I was amazed that Kade and Kamden went down it by themselves without getting scared at all. I also love that quality in both of them. The coolest thing about the whole week was that it did not rain at all for any of the Great Adventure activities. It started lightening as SummerPfest was coming to an end. Wow! And then it poured Saturday morning afterwards. Thank you Lord for the wonderful weather!



Hopefully, I'll have a chance to post more pics from July tomorrow maybe. Or it might take me another two weeks to post again. I'm just thankful when I do get an opportunity to post. Goodnight.
