Church Picnic

A couple weekends ago, we went to a church picnic/land dedication for the new land that our church just bought.  Just as we were walking up to the main tent, we saw a family of one of Kaelyn's school friends.  We didn't realize that they had been going to the same church for awhile because they always go to the earliest service and we go to a later service.  Ross is actually Kaelyn's best buddy at school and so when she saw him and his family, she was THRILLED!  He, his sisters, and Kaelyn all played together and Kaelyn has talked and talked about it.


This is walking up to the clearing where everything was set up.  There are more than 300 acres.  A small portion of the land had been cleared for the picnic and dedication.



Kaelyn, Ross, and one of Ross's sisters waiting in line for the bounce house.

Kay getting ready to ride one of the horses.



The people that did the horse rides, give horse back riding lessons.  They give lessons to special needs kids as well and know exactly which horses are the most fitting for certain kids.  I would love for Kaelyn to get to do horse-back riding at some point, especially given her extreme love of animals.





People were welcome to walk around and look at [a small portion of] the land.  Along the main walking path, all of these signs had been posted.  I think there were a total of seven or eight different verses posted.




One of the lakes on the property.  It was absolutely beautiful!






Kaelyn walking with her friends.




I included this one just because it was such a pretty shot.



A few more shots of the kids back on the bouncehouses again after we walked for a bit.
