Hobe Sound Bible Church July 4th Community Day!

Our church hosted its second annual July 4th Community Day. We were out of town last year, but were happy to be part of it this year. There are several different bounce houses/slides, a petting zoo, pony rides, and lots of food...all for free, as a gift to our community. Such a great idea and lots of fun, too! Here are a few pictures from the day...
Robb and my dad ran the drink machines for a couple of hours, while my mom and I made many, many sno-cones over the course of about 2 hours!

Payton was MUCH more interested in her sno-cone than a photo op!




Getting a little hot and tired!

The little petting zoo was the perfect "first animal experience" for Payton! She was so funny...she was so serious about it...just trying to figure it all out, I guess! The poor duck in this picture had quite the exciting experience. Right after that little boy set the duck down, Payton decided to give it a try. She picked it up by its tail! Of course, the duck started flapping everywhere trying to get free, and Payton just stood there holding it! It was like she was so suprised that it was moving, that she couldn't let go! We were laughing so hard...her eyes got really big! Then, she just kind of threw it, suddenly, like she had finally processed that this thing was ALIVE!!! It was SO funny!!!


She liked petting this little goat, and called it a "doggy"!



Next was the bounce house...apparently daddies like this as much as little girls!

She loves to "bounce", so this big bounce house was like heaven to her!



Time for a ride! It was hard to get a good picture, but Payton loved this! She just kept grinning really big...it was so cute!

Even though it was so, so hot, we had a great time. I'm looking forward to next year!
