A Visit With The Moellers

Last Saturday, we were blessed to visit with the Moeller family at their home!
As we were talking, Amber suddenly commented, "Oh, it's the golden hour."
Some of us didn't know what that was,
so she explained that it was the time of day when the sunlight was perfect for pictures.
Of course we had to take advantage of it, right?
The sun went behind a cloud for this pic, but I think it still turned out nicely.
The rest of these pictures were not taken during the golden hour,
but we'll post them anyways because they're fun!
We were talking about Mrs. Moeller's bubble gun,
and Amber hunted it down so we could try it out.
The bubbles were so pretty in the sunlight!
We even got the guys in on it. Jason was absolutely fascinated by the bubble gun. He wanted to know why we didn't buy him one for his birthday!

Because it was so breezy that day,
all we had to do was hold out the wand, and the wind would take care of the rest.

I didn't know you could direct bubbles...

"Altogether now on one..."
I don't care what age you are, BUBBLES are FUN!!!

After supper, we all went outside again to play beanbags.

Bryan was at some truck thing (I'm still not sure quite what it was.) in the afternoon,
but it was nice to have him there in the evening.


New trend? I know people wear hats or visors during golf,
so maybe this style will work for beanbags. Actually, the gnats were awfully pesky, so Dad thought maybe the bag would keep them off his head.

Dad and Mr. Moeller won every single game together, and we played several!
We decided they needed to have a playoff game
since they were the champions for the evening.
They were so good that they kept cancelling out each other's points,
and the game took twice as long as the others.
Mr. Moeller was the winner. Maybe Dad should have left his hat on!
Jason and Shannon being spectators. Why those looks, I don't know.




We had a wonderful time with this special family!

Oh how delightful! It's fun to see those pictures and actually know the house and yard! I'm so glad Mrs. Moeller was able to be out side with you all!

It looks like you all had great fun!
