A FULL DAY

This is the crew after a very full day and a great game of bowling.

We didn't necessarily stay actively busy today but our minds were engaged much more than a normal Sat. We were so blessed to discover a focus on Marriage teleconference put on by Focus basically a couple blocks away from our house. I had written off going as I couldn't really bring myself to start asking sitters to watch my kids all day. It turned out the church had childcare all set up. So Ron and I enjoyed a day of focusing on each other and our personal spiritual growth. A nice change from the constant focus of kids and child rearing issues that constantly surround our household. As always my worries about the kids were not needed. They did great, Brayden was all excited because he got to play basketball in their gym. Every time I peeked in on Andrea she was just tooling around the room with toys and at one point she was actually sleeping in a crib...lights on, kids crying, people walking around the room. She is definitely a third child and used to the chaos. Becca was excited because she got to go to Brayden's class and for lunch she ate Chick FIL A..a favorite of the kids.

We ended the day with a fun game of bowling with some friends. The kids are getting better and better. Becca just had fun dancing in her "bright socks" as she called them (they had black lights) Brayden was all set to bowl the perfect game, and even though he didn't win we didn't need to peal him off the floor. Even Andrea got in on the action this time-so funny to see her push her ball down the lane then run to the ball holder and look down the hole for her ball (sorry I have no clue the proper names the thing)

One quick memory, today Brayden informed us he was going to marry Andrea. After I told him he couldn't marry some one in our family he proceeded to tell me he was going to marry Becca, then Daddy. Finally, after he ran out of people he got all worried..."WHO AM I GOING TO MARRY???" I answered that sometime God was going to tell him who to marry. Dumb answer because then he wanted to know how he would hear God. At this point Ron jumped into the conversation and said "We will tell you who to marry" Guess what, Brayden sighed, obviously relieved and said "Okay, daddy". Even at this age the unknown is scary.
