Our church is 275 years old this year and this weekend we had our celebration to mark this milestone. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate very well, but everyone still turned out and it only drizzled a little.
They had great face painting...
And hat making...
I even joined in on the face painting fun...
I volunteered to be the "point person" for the bounce house. So it basically meant I was "on" from 10:30 to 3:30 when we left (although I had a LOT of great volunteers that helped me) ....five hours of managing a bounce house can be a lot...but due to the rain, there were some nice lulls. In this pic, Liliana and Lucas are actually bouncing with another set of twins, Taye and Dash.
The Governor stopped by...
Dancing to the bluegrass band...
Lucas and his hat counting rocks at the 9/11 memorial.
On our church grounds, we have a graveyard with gravestones that date back to the 1700's. So some members of our church dressed up in period costumes and gave an historic tour of the graveyard (kinda wish I did that)
It was a great day, despite the weather. We truly feel lucky to have found such a great church.
