Our church has a fifth Sunday of the month social event, and this month’s was a picnic at Walsingham Park! We often play at this park (featured another day) so it was nice to hang out with our Good Shepherd family on Sunday. We ate delicious hot dogs and hamburgers, and in the grand Lutheran tradition of potlucks, everyone brought a covered dish to share. 

   
     
We had so many fun games for the kids! Henry LOVED the shaving cream and bubbles, and had a blast finding treasures in the ice pool. He also tried to play ladder ball, but mostly failed at that. The older kids loved throwing water balloons, and would played a second round but were cut short by the major thunderstorm that blew in and centered itself on the park. It made the scavenger hunt challenging, and ultimately ended the picnic early because of the lightning and torrential rain. We all left soaked, but had a great time.
