Special family weekend (2 weeks ago)

Before Logan leaves for Montgomery this week, we invested in some quality family fun. Praying a stable (close to home) job opportunity. Saturday, of course, was spent watching our Ole Miss Rebels. Georgia was just a little too much for us this year. Hoping for a 3rd SEC win soon & bowl eligibility. After the game, we headed to Morris, AL for a weenie roast (never been to one before) at our neighbor's parents. Their backyard was filled with a small bonfire, hay bells, & lots of food (hotdogs, chili, chips, drinks, marshmallows, rice crispy treats)! Stryker had a great time running around with the "big" boys, playing on a tractor, & roasting hotdogs & marshmallows while LakeLynn slept. Thank you for the invitation. Our family enjoyed the experience. Sunday began with an amazing church service as usual. It was orphan Sunday. We were amazed how God placed Dixon in our lives just a year ago when we were struggling with miscarriages. We have embraced the opportunity to sponsor Dixon & can't wait to see what God does in Dixon's life as well as ours. Stryker took a nap before we took a much needed family date night. Logan & I chose Tree Top Family Adventure since we had never been. Stryker's facial expression was priceless as we walked through the front doors. He never stopped running from place to place. I snuggled Lake in the sling & off we went to ride go karts (no, I didn't ride with Lake!), inflatables, games, & an indoor playground. There was also water wars which was closed for the winter as well as putt putt, laser tag, & miniature bowling. After seeing Stryker's reaction, we'll be keeping it in mind for a possible birthday party location.
