Mended Heart Picnic

Today was the Mended Hearts picnic at Enchanted Island.  The weather was amazing at a high of 85 and we always love hanging out with our heart friends.  It was a pot luck lunch and the kids got wristbands for the rides. 
After a ride on the train around the park, we attempted a group photo... attempted.
Kam always has her iPod these days and is always listening to music.  I guess this is just a glimpse of teenage life.  For the record.. she won't be a teenager until January.
Here are just a few of our HLHS buddies.  Zoe is hiding behind the blue guitar.. Andrew, Brody and Mister Owen. 
The Spidey was well earned.  Owen had to throw a giant ball into a tiny cup, which was a pretty impossible feat seeing as the cups were half the diameter of the ball.  Everyone wins after paying a small fee to play.. and now we have the incredible blow up Spidey you see in every picture!
There were some small kiddie rides that Owen loved.  You better believe I washed his hands a thousand times while we were there.. eww.

It was such a fun picnic and we loved seeing our heart friends, old and new.  You never want to have a sick child with a life threatening condition, but the heart family is a pretty incredible one to belong to!  Love you all. 

When we got home, Owen decided to test out Sis' Halloween wig.  Hilarious!
It's been a great Saturday and we are ready for dinner, movie and bed.
