potlucks and picnics
So we were pretty social this weekend...
Friday night we went to potluck at Brett and Laura's new house. They have a lake/ pond in their back yard and a row boat. Or a pontoon boat. It was amusing looking, whatever it is. :P Good times.
The transparent apples were ready at home so Mom and I spent Saturday afternoon and evening making applesauce. Woot. I'm not overly fond of picking apples... especially since no one thinned the tree this year and so there are lots that are dropping and rotting... and I was barefoot. ick. Thinning the fruit trees used to be my job (don't ask me why) so Shelly, you better start picking up the slack!
We went to Champaign for invite-a-guest on Sunday. Hooray for early mornings. :P O wait, I don't do mornings... I maybe fell asleep in the car on the way down. It was good to be in C-U again and see everyone and hang out with BDY and J-nell. The picnic was good, of course. And there was a playground- what more do you need? :) We got to see the girls' new place, which is pretty much a mansion. *grin* Or an ivory palace. Very much fun. So then we went home and it was late and I was super sleepy all day yesterday. But it was worth it.
ooooo, yesterday the new drawer pulls I ordered for our bedroom set came and I put them on!! yay!! I really like them and it makes grandma's furniture look less circa 1950 and more IKEA or something. :D
Blessings.
