Our Saturday Outing!

Today we went to the Palmer Family Reunion that is held anually at the Potomic Heights Community Center in Indian Head Maryland. We started out at 11 this morning and with a 2 1/2 hour drive, $11 spent in tolls and snacks, we arrived to be welcomed by our ever growing family.

It never ceases to amaze me how every year I attend, this only being my 6th year, that there are still people that I don't know and that I have never seen there before! I was talking with a fellow 'outsider' and we both sat back and quizzed each other on who we knew. Well, needless to say, we did so bad, that we decided to see 'who knew the least amount of people'! The kids always have fun playing at the small playground there, even though it was cloudy, misty and cold. They didn't look like much when the came back inside. The food, games, and fellowship was great!

Once we left, on our way back we decided to go to the Arundal Mills Mall, which was on our way home. I had been there previously when they first opened, I gues about 9 or 10 years ago. Well boy have they expanded and gotten so much more busy. We actually found a spot close to the Bass Pro Shop, which was were we really wanted to spend most of our time. The kids had a blast! I wished I had brought my camera. There was a huge fish tank with big fish, there was a 'shooting range' and of course all of the hunting stuff. They had tons of fun. Then we ventured into the Mall where we allowed the kids to go in whichever stores they wanted. They had so much fun shopping for their own stuff. They thought they were something. Well, about 2 1/2 hours later, we left, happily and headed home.

Well, $91 later, spent on more tolls, gas, dinner, snacks and something for the kids, we arrived home around 9 pm exhausted and yet still ready to go.

I am so thankful for this day, for my kids, my husband and his extended family for the great day!
