Aedan's Birthday

This past Saturday was Aedan's birthday. Since we already had the cake celebration, we gave him his present from us in the morning and then headed out to the park, once Ryan got to watch a little of Game Day:) It was a little hot at the park, but Aedan was able to take his nap during the ride. After the park we headed to Chick-fil-a, where Aedan had his first taste of Chick-fil-a chicken...yummy!! The boys loved playing in the playground area. I love that they have the toddler area. Aedan loved it! After naptime we headed over to the Bowlings' to watch the Clemson/Alabama game. (Shane went to Alabama.) Unfortunately, the Tigers looked horrible...we weren't surprised by their performanace...they never seem to show up for big games. Here are some pictures from the day:


There was a frisbee golf tournament going on at Cane Creek Park when we were there. As we were walking on the trail, a group of men going to their next location passed us. One of men (we think we was a sponsor of the tournament) gave Josiah a REALLY nice frisbee. Josiah loved it...here he his holding it (and his apples, and cup, of course). I tried to use this as a teachable moment for Josiah to explain God's grace to him. I told him that he didn't do anything to earn the frisbee. It was given to him because the (nice) man chose to give it to him. Like God's grace, we don't earn it. It is unmerited favor given to us from God. Of course, Josiah's response was "a lion...roar!" I think he understood what I was talking about. (haha!)
