Memorial Day Church Picnic

Just me...Brian made me smile as we prepared for the days event :)
The Maranatha Baptist Church of Okinawa, Japan Grill Meisters workin' hard






Vicki, Bro Sidney and myself are stuffing burger buns and hotdog buns for the anticipated crowd of 250...I am anxious to see what the count was! There were people everywhere! It was extremely humid, but there was a nice breeze going through...
The church rented some blowup "toys" ...Anjolie and Brianna loved it!
Of course there had to be a sprinkler to cool off... Brianna and Anjolie were soaked for most of the picnic.
Vicki and I are friends back from when we attended Calvary Baptist in Yucca Valley...if you are ever in the area..you MUST stop by. The dear brothers and sisters and Pastor and his wife are just precious beyond words to us.


This is one of my bestest friends, Pam and her husband Scott.
Wait...what is Pam doing??!! ;) lol sorry Pam...HAD to post this rofl
Oh...there I am with one of our missionaries...Alice ;)
Playtime! ;) Miss Alice catches air on that jump! lol...oh it was fun. I could not stop laughing. Poor Miss Alice trying to be ever so modest on this jungle gym...oh dear she was such a good sport. What a blessing she is to everyone.
Let the races begin Scott is determined to win!




LOL I don't know who enjoyed this thing more, the adults or the kids ;)






Danielle and Rachel...neck and neck


Danielle rolls in second ;)I think everyone had a wonderful time..I know I did.

Loved the pictures! Looks like a fun day was had by all. Oh, and from the looks of it the adults enjoyed the toys at least as much as the kids; I'm thinking better.

What fun pictures!! It looks like the adults were having just as much fun as the kids playing on the blow-up toys.
