7/23/16...Fun time at Rock the Island....Danny Gokey and David Crowder were there

I messed up and the pictures aren't in the right order.  Couldn't figure how to straighten them out though so just left them like they are.

When we got there, we parked at the tennis courts.  Took the girls pictures with these two statues

The girls were so happy to get two autographs each from Danny Gokey.  Also very happy to have their picture taken with him.  He was so nice.  He signed Hailey and Avery's shirts on his picture.  Reminded me of when my girls were young and 4Him signed their shirts and Maria's
Saw Vicky Taylor there.  Happy to see her.  Miss her since she has moved
David Crowder did amazing worshipping the Lord and getting the crowd to.



Went to pick up Melissa and Hailey at 11am.  We loaded stuff in the car and went to pick up Avery.  Got to talk to Mike when we picked her up.  He is such a good daddy.  Made Avery get back out of the car to give him a hug and kiss. We got to Ojibway and parked close in the Tennis Park.  We took a picture of the girls by the statutes.  They have them all over town and they are really realistic looking.  We found a really shady spot in the middle of 3 huge trees.  Figured we would be shaded all day and we pretty much were.  We had fun listening to Valley's band, walking around, eating, seeing friends, and relaxing in the shade.  The girls absolutely loved Danny Gokey and stood in the hot sun just to be close and listen.  They were jumping with everyone and having so much fun.  Afterwards, he autographed things for people and was so nice letting Melissa and I both take a picture and autographing 2 things each for the four girls.  Loved his concert and how he encouraged us in the Lord.  David Crowder did an amazing worship concert too. We were very blessed.  Bruce, the boys and Bill came in the afternoon which was nice.

Looks like fun! I think you meant rock wall instead of rockfall?

Thanks. Spellcheck changed it. It didn't want me putting rockwall when I tried to change it after seeing your comment. Kept changing it to Rockwell on me. Finally got it though
