FRIDAY FINDS
On Friday I found a mother duck and her eleven babies in tow (I think there were eleven. It was hard to count them as they were moving in their little herd). I watched them move together across the parking lot. Wherever momma went, so did the babes. Then momma decided to take them on a little adventure. Check out what I saw...
After I quit taking video of the the momma duck and her babes, she decided that getting over the curb was too difficult for her babes and she hopped out and went a different way.
First, I thought wow! I am a momma of twin girls. I am glad I am not a momma of 11 twins.
Second, I was amazed at how the babes moved with her and each other.
Third, I thought, isn't it wonderful that God always gives a way out of the place we thought would be the best. I am sure the momma duck thought, "let's go over the curb. It will be a short-cut." But her love for her babes showed her that it wasn't the best for them. So she had to abandon that idea of a short-cut and go the long way around.
SATURDAY
Saturday was filled with running around. Not literally of course. I can't imagine running with with an infant car seat in each hand. Although that would be a great work out. Me and the kiddos drove all over trying to find some things for my hubby. He needed to work a bit. So I made him some lunch and did some of his errands for him. We had a nice relaxing evening at home.
SWEET SUNDAY
Sunday was fantastic. The day started out with my son wanting a mohawk. I thought, oh why not! We went to church which is always nice. Church was just a bit different because they didn't have Sunday School classes for the older kids. The girls still got to go to the nursery, but our oldest stayed with us in the service. So we packed a couple of things that could keep him busy. But right off the bat the worship leader asked all the kids to come up on stage to sing some songs, knowing there would be a lot of kids in the service. Out son literally ran up there. He loves this stuff. I have been told there will come a day when we will ask him to go do the same thing and he won't want to do it. Out of embarrassment I am sure. So we are eating it up while we can. He was a little rock star. Since he ran up there he was on of the first kids, but he didn't stop at the front steps. Oh no. He ran right up the the musicians and stood there waiting for it all to begin. Good thing a friend of ours was singing on the worship team because she was able to direct him a bit. She even let him sing Jesus Loves Me into the microphone. Which he LOVED. The last song they sang the worship leader told them that there were going to play air guitar. But they also had some plastic blow up guitars too. And of course our son had to have one right away.
God love him, because I do!
The funny part was that he didn't want to get off stage. So I had to go up and grab his hand to come with me. He didn't stop talking about the guitar for quite a while.
As we were leaving church, we saw a Stealth Bomber fly over. It was apart of the show at the Indianapolis 500.

After church we went to one of my favorite places, Jimmy John's. My son already knows one of their slogans. "Jimmy John's. Freaky Fast Subs." And of course we had a good time there too!
Then we headed to the water park! It was super fun. A lot of people, but still a lot of fun. What is even better is that it is just minutes from our house. This place has all kinds of fun things! A little tykes area, a bigger kids area, a lazy river, a tube slide and more!
And today we are going to my sister in-laws for a little get together. A nice hurrah before she and her 2 boys head meet her hubby in Japan.
Ahhh good weekend!
What have you done this Memorial Day weekend?
