How would you like to come around the yard mowing and find this?!
I must have caught it unawares while zipping around the apple tree...
I took the pic and sent it to Robb. He texted back. "We'll move."
Well, it's DEAD now...! So we don't HAVE to! I'll just protect us with the lawn mower.
On Friday, Leon and I went on an adventure and returned four of the mannequins from the grad party to their rightful owners. I still have two left, but that lady lives a long ways away, so it will wait until the next sewing meeting. We had some good conversations on the way but he mostly had his nose in his tablet...
He was mostly excited about the "fun place" that I promised that I'd take him. When we got close to it, I realized that we'd been here before!
He had been invited to a birthday party here back in preschool.
He didn't remember and had a blast running all over the place. I found a nice place to relax and realized that I should have charged my phone on the way down. The percentage was at 8%... sigh... I got some pics in before it died.
I dug out some quarters and he and I played some air hockey. It was close... Then later, he was playing with a boy and I found some more change. He asked the boy to play it with him and then he got creamed. I may have been holding back... But Leon didn't care and was just excited to be playing the game with his new friend.
Loads more running around and bouncing and suddenly we'd been there an hour and it was time to take him to his mom's for the weekend. darn. I dropped him off and headed home.
My niece, Bethany, arrived the next morning and spent until this morning here with Meri. They mostly avoided the house and spent money. But they did play some board and card games with us in the evenings for a bit.
I spent my free time sewing. I made two pairs of black leggings and let the girls pick which ones they wanted. Will make more of those now that I have Meri's size perfected! Easy peasy! Two hours later a new pair is done.
Meri was asked to sing with a small group of people for a funeral grave side service. So right after church, she ditched us and ran home to practice with them in our living room. I found that she DOES care what people think of our house!! When we got home after lunch out with Bethany, she had done a bit more tidying... Nice... She's going to have to have more friends and their parents over more often... She and a couple of the guys from the group have decided to start a new singing group called Dead Set. Not sure if they're get a LOT of funeral gigs with that name, but I liked it.
Robb and I took Bethany to lunch at the pub where Ryan works. It was early enough that we were the only customers there for almost 30 minutes, so Ryan was able to sit and visit a little. He also brought us out some jalapeno cheddar balls to try out. Oh... those were delish!!!!
Bethany had to leave this morning, so she and Meri went to Meri's favorite coffee shop before she hit the road and Meri went to work. I've got a TON of fettuccine noodles left over from Bethy's favorite meal last night and am wondering what to do with them.
But not for lunch. I have a lunch date with Ada today. :)
