Sunday School Picnic

What a wonderful day we had in church today. Truly Sunday's are the best. I am so thankful we have this day of rest, a day of praising and worshiping our Lord and Savior, a day of fellowship with fellow believers and a day of fun.
As soon as we got home Marika and her filly were checked on, the filly is doing very well. She is so long legged and strong. Marika's water buckets were filled, more hay put in the stall and the stall cleaned. Ayanna and Violet were asking to come in. I get a kick out of these spoiled babies. They love coming into the air conditioned barn. As soon as they get into the stalls, the babies lay down for a nap.
Hadassah was pulled out and teased. She was still in so covered by Killian.
I went in to bake brownies for the picnic while Mark went berry picking. The wild black raspberries are ripe and Mark picked a quart to take to the Sunday School picnic.
We picked up mom, Molly and Emily and arrived 15 minutes before the prayer. The picnic was so well attended with so much delicious food brought they needed to add 2 more food tables. After dinner came the games. The funniest game was a new one for me. The organizers of the picnic had long tables set up and all along both sides were plates of what looked like whipped cream, inside the whipped cream was bubble gum. The kids were lined up, the start given and the kids had to eat the cream to find the gum, the first one to blow a bubble won. The next game was also funny. 2 wash tubs were filled with ice water and clear marbles were dumped into the tubs. The players had to stick their feet in the tubs and pull out a marble with their toes. The marbles could be turned in for prizes. I forgot my camera but Mark pulled out his cell phone and took a few pictures. Below is the wheelbarrow race.
They started out fast but most ended up crashing on the way back. too funny
