We went to a cook out at church this evening. It was a lot of fun. This is the second year in a row that they've done this. It's to try and gain interest in VBS. VBS doesn't start until July 6 this year. That's a lot later than usual. But, they are going to have a float in our city's parade for 4th of July this year and I think that's why. It's going to give more time to "advertise."

They had water balloons and a ball toss game and a bowling game out for the kids. They all played around and had a lot of fun. There was definitely a lot of food. We had quite a few people from the neighborhood come. Hopefully, they'll send their kids to VBS, too.

After eating, there was a game of wiffle ball that kids and adults both played in, but not me. Actually, there were several of us that did not play, but it was fun to watch. Caleb got some pretty good hits. I was proud of him. It was really nice to sit and visit with people, too.

Next weekend we go to help work on the float for the parade. We also need to buy candy to throw.
