The Sunday before Halloween was Trunk or Treat at the church, followed by dinner on the foundation of our new building!
The big three:
The whole brood --
It was kinda hot. Poor warm lion.
Without his hat, I thought Michael looked like a knight.
The girls:
The boys:
Look at those red cheeks!
After this picture, we stripped the babies down a bit, and Natalie and James took off their headwear.
We discovered there were games inside – A/C!!
I sat down and nursed the babes.
James discovered there was chocolate (and lots of it!) in his bag.
He’s saying “chocolate!!!”
After the games and finding friends to visit with, we went back to the car to change the kiddos out of their costumes. Or as someone said, “Go back to Kansas.” I thought that was pretty clever. :)
By the time we got to the foundation, the tables were absolutely full.
It really worked out well though, because it would have been overwhelming to try and sit with our crew in that crowd. There was a ton of empty space, and we just sat down to picnic with a couple of our favorite families.
Thomas reeeeeeally wanted down to play, and he ended up covered in cement dust.
Here’s his hand print on my jeans – ha!
I thought it was a pretty cool idea to fellowship on the foundation of our new building. We also got to use silver sharpies to sign the beams. I like that those prayers, words, and signatures will always be a part of the building. And somebody let me know that my butt was sitting in the prayer chapel. How nice. :)
