Sunday happenings

Today was the first annual CUMC Family picnic and Olympic games. Fancy title for hamburgers with friends and a softball game :). Any-who the day started as most Sundays do...Keaton asking if we were going to 'play church', Tatum arguing about everything and Weston fussing as we pull out of our driveway.
Tatum announced on the short drive to the church that she wants to go to college to write and sing songs. She does 'write' some very interesting songs, but I don't think they really have much mass appeal. Some of her song topics include football (a song describing step by step what a football game looks like), baseball (same content as football only with baseball), friends (just a random song about how to make friends and who hers are)...not really top 10 hits. Jarrek and I are planning on getting her a Dictaphone for Christmas so that others may partake in the beauty of a 5 year old's song writing ability.

Jarrek and I started a new study in Sunday school...How to Raise Rock solid kids in a Pleasure Driven World. I am ready to soak it all in.

Next we were on to the picnic. Pretty unadventurous...the kids played and the adults talked. Keaton did fall flat on his back from a zip-line and got the wind knocked out of him. Tatum and Keaton were both very confused as to how the 'wind got knocked out' of him.

When we finally got home everyone was exhausted, except of course Weston who had a nap at the picnic. We all relaxed and then it was back to normal. Tatum and Keaton were playing with a flag and whack, Tatum was hit. She now has a lovely little bumped on her head which is hidden by her hair, but you know Tatum...she simply can't go to school with a 'huge' bump on her head, what will people think.

What about yesterday...Keaton wanted to know why the bears on the movie "Country Bears" were not trying to eat the people on the movie. I had to explain that they were just people dressed up as bears, but I am not sure he is convinced.
Tatum has now decided to write her name in "cursciv" so that all the letters are attached and surprisingly, it looks pretty good.

OH...we have a name for one of the Triplets...Wyatt Alan. Still waiting on the girls names.
