Yesterday we had the most perfect day to celebrate Eli's birthday with our dear family friends. We had the Wellman family, Long family, and Vest family over to celebrate. Brian led the kids in an epic capture the flag game. The kids had to run around to find flags and if one of the dads caught them then they had to go to mom jail. If they were in mom jail, then one of us moms gave them something to do to get out. They had to do 10 push ups, jumping jacks, etc... The kids loved running through our yard to find the flags! We grilled out for dinner and then had a campfire with s'mores. We had a time of praying for Eli and then we all sang happy birthday. It was a wonderful time together. The weather was warm and sunny. I was so thankful for perfect weather because there were 22 of us! I got teary eyed after everyone left, happy tears, because I feel so blessed to call them friends and that we can do life together as families.
I love this picture, the kids we ready to get Eli with leaves!
Our dear friends, Eric and Anna, Shane and Anna, and Angela and Erik.
