Everything In Between

Here are all those "in between" pictures that aren't enough in themselves for a post but fun to remember!
Date night! We got to dress up fancy and bring some gifts to a fundraiser that collected toys for kids in need in Osceola County. We didn't stay long and grabbed dinner after. 
We hit "Funtown" in Melbourne. It was okay. Laser tag and roller skating. The highlight was the ticket machine of all things!
The Hydes came for a visit at Thanksgiving and we were able to meet our babiest cousin Otto! He is a little dream baby! Benny looks good as an older sibling!
Yay for more date nights!!
A very chilly family airboat ride!!
Family night out to the movies over Christmas break! Wreck-It Ralph Breaks the Internet.
In an attempt to make the Sabbath Day a "Delight" we've started doing "Sunday Service." The kids pick 3-4 things to do after church each Sunday to serve others. They range from writing notes to people, drawing pictures for people, making treats for others, praying for specific people. We've served friends, neighbors, teachers, classmates, family and, for the most part, it really has made the Sabbath Day a delight. One thing we do is email our GG every Sunday. We try and keep her informed on everything going on and they love getting emails back. 

We went to the beach one Saturday and of course, this kid, catches fish!!
 The trampoline is a real favorite!!
 We went bowling together as a family on one of our free Saturdays. I wasn't sure how it was going to go but we had a really fun time! Benny even forwent the ramp and was throwing the ball down the lane like a champ! We will go back!!

A Visit from the Spongbergs and the Tanners!

I LOVE it when family from California comes to visit!! We just had my Aunt Sandee and Uncle Roland here with my cousin Jill and her family and we loved seeing them! We met them at Wild Florida for a (very chilly) airboat ride and then visited while we walked around the park and had lunch. That night we met them up at Chef Mickey's at Disney for a character dinner and that was reeeeally fun! The kids get along perfectly and a fun time was had by everyone!
