Last Sunday we met with the Wilkes and some other families for a worship service. After lunch, we played soccer. We very soon found that the playing field was quite mushy, but started anyway. Then it began to drizzle and people really started sliding! Pretty much everyone got mud spattered on them (what fun
), more or less, and no one wanted to pick up the ball, because it was wet and dirty
. But we all had lots of fun, and probably all thought it was worth it (I can't speak for everyone). We were especially blessed by Em afterwards, as she willingly washed all the dirty shoes for our family. You can see what dirty shoes we took off at the Wilkes' front door:
