National Guard Company Family Picnic

Josh had drill this weekend but this time we got to join him on Sunday for his company's family picnic.  It was at Aldersgate Retreat Center in Turner, OR.  It was a beautiful, hot day but thankfully there were also a lot of trees that kept us shaded when need be.  It was still pretty warm in the shade though.  It was very well planned and they had a lot of activities for the kids at different times throughout the day.  Megan got to jump on a hydroulic jumpy thing (for lack of a better name), run in a sack race, have a waterballoon toss which then turned into a fight and slide down a 125 ft. water slide in the forest.  Mister got to crawl and walk all over, eat watermelon, get filthy dirty and in the end, have a sucker. It gave us a lot of opportunities to practice with our new toy!
