Ichthus 09

Never does the Mabey family go away and not get into a pick up soccer game- Ichthus was no exception!

Communion~ always a wonderful experience at Ichthus

We met up with Levi Spring, pastors son who used to be here in Michigan now moved to Marion Indiana- we miss you guys!

Micah sponsored his first compassion child, a little boy from India, so proud of you Micah! giving up your allowance is not easy at 10 years old

It was Micah's friend Scott's birthday while we were gone, and he wanted to meet hawk Nelson, he got his opportunity! The boys waited in line for what seemed like forever but came away with autographs for all! they were pumped!

Soak City

The two older boys went to Cedar point with the
youth group from CWC but mom was still hobbling along due to her recovery from surgery. We wanted to get out of the heat since it has been above 90 degrees for a week so we hit Soak City, the water park next door to cedar point. Mom taped up her leg real good since the stitches were still healing and off we went.




Daddy enjoying the lazy river...

















Noah a bit taken back that the buckets
did not drop any water on him as he passed
under.....





























Micah and Noah at the wave pool.......












Jason does not ride roller coasters so in the
afternoon he wandered into the water park,
we found him, or I should say he found us.





















Micah standing under the big bucket in the splash Zone,
he loved it!
















Noah enjoying a nice cold drink on a hot afternoon.

Outdoor Adventure

Friends of ours Bernie and Dena Long were camping and had invited us to tag along..... and while we did not go for the week I took the boys to spend what to date has been the hottest day this summer and we spent the day at the lake.
It was a lot of fun........


there were paddle boats and kayaks
and I had know idea Noah and Micah
even knew hot to maneuver one of those.....
they proved me wrong:)



Then.....go figure......the built a sand castle!
yes- eve the older boys got in on the act,
the picture proves it. I guess you are never to
old to play in the sand. While it wasn't the
Jersey Shore, it provided an afternoon of
entertainment and was very refreshing.
Thanks for the invite Dena!
