B-day at the park

June 30 marks a special day in our family! Jeremy turned 15 this year, and we celebrated by playing a game of disc golf with friends at Woodward Park in Fresno. I learned, *ahem* that I need to sharpen up on my throwing skills . . . (surprise, surprise!) while Jeremy came in third. How can that happen when we both played for the first time? Hmm . . .


He's gonna make it!

Everybody had their own throwing style. :-P


The only things needed to play disc in Fresno. :-) That water bottle is just as important as the discs!

Preppin' up to throw


Come play!

Flying



Free . . .




Simon recently discovered a popular "jump-off" spot for hang gliders about 30 minutes away from our house. One afternoon, the Littles, Mom, and I joined him and zoomed up the mountain to watch them take-off.




I wish you could have seen the look in Simon's eyes as he watched glider after glider take the plunge. (Literally!) Someday this dream may come true . . .








Mountain joy






Chatting with the owner of the spot. He was a devoted Christian and couldn't stop praising God. Isn't it a blessing when you find believers at the most unexpected places?
