quest bbq

now that hayden is going into second grade, he has moved up to the "quest" room at church. quest had a bbq for all of the kids (they split it up...2nd grade boys were one day, 2nd grade girls another...ect.) at mclumpha park in plymouth. this park is also the home to the sprinkler park so we had to make it very clear we were not going to be going to that part of the park!
when we got there hayden noticed kids fishing in the pond and headed right over. they had fishing poles and corn that they used as bait. hayden couldn't wait to get started. after just going fishing with his grandma and grandpa skiver, he was used to fish basically throwing themselves at him. well, tonite was little different. he didn't catch anything. nobody did. so he got quite frustrated. we had to explain to him that this is what fishing usually is.
after the fishing, we headed up to the pavilion to eat dinner and then everyone went out and played a bunch of games. talan, not being one for organized play, headed over to the volleyball net. after playing for a bit by himself, an older boy (probably in middle school) came over and kept him company. he was GREAT with talan and talan just loved him.
hayden had a great time and we're all excited for what this year in quest is going to bring!
