The inaugural Upton Family Picnic went ahead on Sunday 24 June despite the persistent rain.
We are very grateful to the Upton Methodist Church for letting us (at 30 minutes notice) use their hall to host an indoor picnic.
Eight families, with children aged from 6 months to 10 years old, enjoyed their picnics inside. The adults chatted whilst the children played musical chairs, Twister, and crawled through the pop up playhouses. Later on the rain dried up and we could all move out to the playground to continue the fun.
I think we’ll try this again – perhaps later in the summer. We can pray harder for a dry afternoon! Any takers?
