Enjoyable Weekend

Here are a couple of pics I thought you'd enjoy. Mother and daughter and daughter and granddaughter.

Saturday we were going to take it easy until we realized that the whole neighborhood was having a giant Yard Sale. So we went to breakfast at Freedom Diner and then headed home to see what we had that we didn't want anymore. En route to breakfast we found a fantastic stroller and swing set for Kate to use when she comes to our place.

We carted stuff up from the basement and carted most of it back, but did end up making a few bucks more than we'd spent. I recall saying, "I've gotten more exercise lugging this stationary bike up and down the steps than I ever did riding it.;) It was a beautiful day and we were in the shade all day, so it was a nice afternoon.

Sunday we went to church. Dee went to her Sunday School class and I attended the class that I think I'll be teaching in the fall. It was good to talk with the current teachers about their process and see their attendance sheet of names and participants. It'll be a survey of the New Testament class.

After ward we went to Eat 'N Park for lunch and then as soon as we got home, friends from Butler stopped by. Rich and Monica are thinking of moving and they wanted to see some of the homes in our area that were having open house. We went with them to five houses within walking distance of our place. Three of them were sorta like our place and the other two were town houses that we were just curious to see. We had a nice time with them.

After they left we sat on the deck and read for awhile, and then I cooked chicken on the grill. While we ate in the kitchenette area we watched "Last Cake Standing". A contest between wedding cake decorators for a big prize. We got hooked and watched two episodes before we just set up the record mode to record the final episode. Then went back to the deck. There was a nice breeze and so we continued to enjoy being outside.

During the evening we watched the episode we'd recorded and then next leg of "The Amazing Race." A nice day - full but nice.
