whirlwind weekend

:: We had a wonderful weekend. It was non stop and I am getting too old for that but nonetheless wonderful.

:: We left here at 6am (and yes, I did manage to get up at 5am) We arrived in Canton just in time to leave for Grandparent's Day at CFC. I just came across a picture of Josh with Papa when he came up for Grandparent's Day in 1989.

This time it was our turn to be there for Lael and get our picture with her (and Alyssa). Jackie went long enough to take video of Lael (her group was first to perform) and then she and Lauren went back home and Alyssa stayed with us.

:: Loved seeing Lael sing in the choir. Loved seeing all our old friends from CFC and catching up with some who don't have blogs. Seeing all the kids again was amazing for me...........we have been gone almost 2 yr. and some of the kids have certainly grown more than 2 yrs. worth. :-) OK, that is probably a statement an old person would make........let's face it, I am an old person......not sure when it happened but I do know for certain it has.

:: We stayed with Betsy and Kenny so not only did we get to catch up, I got my hair cut. Friday night we ate at Ponderosa for the seafood buffet. Very good.....I ate way too much. Saturday night we went out again, this time with the Ashleys' and the Regans'. After Lael's basket ball game we went to lunch at Ponderosa, Lael's choice but it was very good, different foods on the buffet from the night before. After that the girls and I went to the playground for a while and Daddy and Grampa went to Colton to look at the house Josh is building. This morning we met Josh, Jackie and girls at their church and then took 37 back to Watertown.


Grampa and his girls after church.

Wondering about the basset? It chases cars and barks all the time. If they wasn't enough to think twice about, they decided they wanted $100 for the one we were interested in. Don't get me wrong; we (actually Susan, Jon and Josh) paid much more than that for Zoe, so we have no problem paying for one.......just seemed to be an afterthought once we were interested in it.
