We had so much fun with our friends this weekend.
10 adults. 10 kids under the age of 6.
These faces are so precious!
(But looking at them, you can see why I didn't get many pictures of the adults. We all had our hands full!)
You can imagine that with this many kids,
dinner time was crazy:
(Kids laughter and giggles is the best!)
As well as getting them all to bed:
(This was a little story time that we did each night.)
We went to Strands beach in Dana Point.
We ate our lunches and just talked and watched the kids play.
This was Eden's first time at the beach, but I don't think she will remember much of it♥:
The girls:
(There are 7 boys and 3 girls. Another boy will join the group in November. The girls are very outnumbered...)
(Can you tell that Eden is not sure about all these pictures.)
In the evenings, after we got the kids to sleep, each of the five couples just shared about where they are in life, the highs and the lows, and ways that we can pray for each other. This group represents what it is to really live in community and to live life with people. I am so thankful that they are in our lives and that our kids will grow up together.
To the Cleary's, Wark's, Thrashes, and Jones'~
We love you all and are so grateful that you are walking this journey with us.
We appreciate you and are so thankful for you.
Thank you for loving on us and for loving Ryder and Eden so well.
You are our family.
We are excited for the years to come!
