Tea, Airplanes and the Outback...

Another fine day in Eugene. Michael went to a men's breakfast study. I took the younger three to the pool     and soaked up some vitamin  D while I read the newspaper.


The girls, Sherri (Sister in law), Mom G and Mom T enjoyed a tea party at Mom T's. 
We all picked our favorite tea cup to use

My favorite which I didn't select as I figured it would be near impossible with the handle

Bad photo - but the only group photo I took 


Michael took the boys on a super secret surprise.....an airplane ride. 

We've had LOTS of plane rides recently so what made this special? Well - it IS a small plane....

and Michael piloted the plane. Michael attended the flight program at a college in this town...the boys had a blast....and Michael did too. The timing was right. 





I think there are a couple of girls who would like a redo on this tea/airplane choice...they want to have their tea and plane too. ::snort:: Another plane trip may be in the near future. 

Michael, myself, Arielle, Nolan, Zander and Stacia met Bre, Mom G and Rebecca for dinner tonight.  Then Arielle, Zander and Nolan went with Pastor Bre to work on a VBS banner. 

We brought Stacia home hoping to find a nice kids' movie for her to watch - you'd think as they have cable...NOPE nothing suitable for a child. She fell asleep. She hurt her toe this afternoon - I believe she'll lose the toe nail - it's loose and so she's a bit worn out. She hates, and is terrified of, blood. 

Choosing Joy!

Sounds like a lovely day. Those teacups were beautiful! I'd have been nervous to actually use one, lol. So cool that Mike piloted the plane! He really is a "Superman" kind of guy, isn't he? He has so many varied talents, does so many different things, and he does them all well! And the best part of all is his huge heart for Christ and the modeling he does for your family. <3
