Rain & Jousting

This past Sunday after church I headed out to the Darien State Park with my sister, Cassandra and three friends Jeff, Karin & Jenn to enjoy a work picnic. The day started out not very promising with rain clouds in the sky. I did get to see a rainbow on my way to church. That was promising!
Around 12:45pm Jeff, Karin & Jenn arrived at my house so we could head over to the park. The rain decided it wanted to stick around. It did not damper our outing.
When we arrived my fellow coworkers were all under the shelter along with a huge round jousting inflatable. The caterers were cooking the chicken on a grill to get ready for lunch while some of the kids were jumping on the jousting arena. Around 1:30 the food was ready. We all enjoyed chef salad, baked beans, pink stuff, chicken and barbecue hamburgers. All the food was delicious.
After lunch the competition began. Tina & Katie got into the jousting arena and Tina kicked some butt. It was a lot of fun watching. I just could not watch so I did get in the arena and Tina went flying.
Everyone seemed to have a good time. It was especially great to see the fathers get into the arena and joust with their sons.
Well, until next time!
Blessings to you~
