CCC Family Fun Day

After spending the night with Grandpa Mickey and Claire (Which they totally enjoyed!)  We met the kids at CCC's family fun day! It was a lovely afternoon of fun games abut most importantly friends. 
Pierson's favorite part was getting painted like a pirate!

Or was it winning two cakes at the cake walk?

I enjoyed listening to some good old praise and worship.

 
We are so blessed to have such a support base of friends and family who have a common focus. We are all passionate about serving others and serving our God. Not that I think I would be less passionate about these things if my base of friends weren't as well, but more and more I believe and understand the importance of having a support network. 

I am blessed that my friends are more concerned about faith than fashion. They are more concerned with spending time in fellowship and worship than fulfilling our time with worldly entertainment.

 I can't think of better role models for our kids than our closest friends. Those who would rather spend a day in service than luxury. A day getting dirt under our nails than getting them polished.
Maybe we are a little weird... but from my point of view we aren't the weird ones! :)

Love your heart for service! Isn't it so great to get the kids started early, too? If they grow up serving, they'll never stop! :)
