Birthday picnic

Sabbath was Jonathan Carlson's birthday so a bunch of people met at Red Clay State Park for a picnic.

Kelli made lasanga

Trying to light candles in the wind is tricky

The birthday boy

After lunch entertainment: slack rope walking

No, she isn't falling, she walked the whole way by herself. The rope is hers so she's had lots of practice.

Apparently the tongue helps

Back at the Heilmans this is the Carrie and Jaclyn, Ryan and Ryan game of catch

I love Sabbath. Because it means no matter how many 5000 things I should be doing, I can't do any of them. How wonderful that sounds! End-of-semester time makes me feel even crazier than usual and it makes little things like having a sister do your laundry, a boyfriend help with your dishes, and a patient's husband pay for your lunch mean so much.

Stephanie and I went to see Amazing Grace today. It's a great movie if you like things that are revolutionary time period, historical, moral, and surprisingly accurate from what I am now reading about it. The story is about William Wilberforce who was the MP in the House of Lords who worked on abolishing slavery. It took him from 1791 until 1807 to get a bill passed that abolished the slave trade. What a lesson in perseverance! Slavery was completely abolished in England one month after he died in 1833. Just think, we took another 20 years to do it here in America...

I also took some time out today to plant some Verbena. Since my back door area is covered with rocks and my front door is surrounded by tree stumps that make it hard to plant things, I've taken to pots. This might be good considering my skills anyway.

Double Date

On Tuesday night, Kelli took Jonathan...

and I took Ryan on a surprise double date.

Half of the fun was watching the guys try to guess where we were going and seeing how excited they got when they finally figured it out.
We went to see the Harlem Globetrotters!
