Birthday Party

On Saturday, June 4th, we packed up the car and headed to Kelsey Creek Farm Park to celebrate our boys' birthdays with family and friends. The Lord blessed us with an incredibly beautiful day. It was sunny and the high was the mid-70s with just a slight breeze. It really couldn't have been a better day. Thank you, Lord, for that unexpected blessing!
