Our church congregation planned a trip to St. Augustine Beach for the youth!

6/6/23

We decided to start fostering cats and kittens again and we got these two Obi Wan “Wobbly” and Theodore:

Wobbly was born with a rare condition commonly known as “Wobbly Cat Syndrome” that affects his ability to balance. But despite a lack of coordination, cats with this defect can live full and happy lives. Rachel loved Wobbly and was very sad when he was adopted.

Theodore was more like a lion than a cat. He was a little bit psycho!

We went on a family adventure to do an escape room!

We escaped the room with only seconds to spare!

We didn’t know what signs each of us picked until we looked at the picture later. That was a fun family activity!

We were ready for a rematch of tennis! This time we played doubles with Mom and Dad against us!

That really was a fun-filled tennis match! Mom and Dad won -they cheated (ha, ha).

Dad made mom some yummy French Toast for breakfast:

Next we gave mom some cards and gifts:

Rachel made mom a beautiful card:

Very creative!

Lizzy made a card for mom too:

Lizzy always writes a heartfelt message inside:

Mom loves for the house to smell good so we got her some great smelling wax melts:

We also gave her a knife for her backpacking adventures!

I think she’s ready to cut some things!

Dad also made Mom a card:

It was romantic apparently:

Dad also gave mom a 35lb workout bar for her gym. Yup, that’s what makes Mom happy!

Time to go to church:

At church, the Araque’s gave Mom a nice gift:

Mom had a Very Happy Mother’s Day!
