Mulberry Street: Beach Trip part 2

"And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street"

There is this great Dr. Seuess book about a boy who walks to school everyday down Mulberry Street. All he ever encounters are normal things and he wants to see extraordinary things so he can have a good story for his dad when he gets home. So the book is made up of this boy's imaginative exaggeration of the normal. Great things that all build upon each other to end with a grand parade. The boy finally realizes all the exaggeration is too unbelievable and decides to just tell his dad what he really saw on the way home-the normal, everyday stuff. That's what we are sharing in this blog, so we thought Mulberry Street a fitting name. We sometimes feel no one wants to hear about our everyday lives, but hopefully you do. Enjoy!

Beach Trip part 2

Sunday was fun with a Bible story about preaching God's Word. Each kid took turns "preaching". Lily preached, but we got that on video instead of just a pic.

After our church service we went to Ft. Morgan. William has been looking forward to this FOREVER! He is our little history lover and one of his favorite outings is checking out old forts and ships. Two years ago we went to the USS Alabama Battleship, so we thought this year it was time to brave the heat and sun and let him see the fort. We walked all around the dark tunnels and around the outer walls.
