Joy loved her first time at the duck pond.  
There is nothing like the duck pond at OU, so many memories, so much tradition there too.

Joy kept trying to make the "quack" sound, so cute.

ACC Norman Volunteer Fair

We had such a fun time at the 2012 Antioch Volunteer Fair!
We honored everyone who serves in the church with the best FAIR excitement. Balloon inflatables, balloon animals from Pops, bull rides, face painting,  food including corn dogs, funnel cakes, fried snickers and more!  
So blessed by everyone who lays it down to serve the church and the Lord with all their hearts

 My wild man of God
 Pops, the coolest grandpa around
