Memorial Day Picnic 2009

Sunday was the annual Memorial Day picnic that Tess' family does. We usually have a pretty good time with family. Below are just a few of the many pictures that I took while we were out there. It seems that every year, rain threatens the day and this year was no different. With a 30% chance of scattered showers our location turned into 100%. It rained, albeit, very lightly for about 20 minutes forcing many holiday park-goers to cut their day short. But the rain finally left just as quickly as it came and God left us with a beautiful sign that He would never flood the earth again. Thank you Father for your beauty. After the rain, the sun will shine and sometimes leave us a reminder of His promise. By the way, please forgive me if I misspelled names or got children mixed up.
