10 years

So we skipped the pork chop fry (*gasp*) last Saturday to go to my 10 year class reunion.  Little miss got to spend the evening on the farm terrorizing Gus.  She had a great time.  Honestly, I wasn't all that excited about it...  I mean, I haven't really missed most of my classmates.  *grin*  But it was actually more fun than I was expecting.  We got to sit by Julie, who I haven't seen since her wedding, and Holly, one of my best friends in HS.  It was also good to see Dorothy, and my fellow trumpet gods...  what can I say, we were weird in HS and created a trumpet cult in band while we were bored...  good times.  And of course it was good to see all the church kids.  Although, slightly awkward since we never have a reason to visit Eureka, Congerville, or Goodfield anymore so I'm not sure who's still ACCA....  Over all though, it was a good time.  Poor Bob knew one person and he is a spouse, not a classmate.  It's good for him, right?

Nothing like going to your 10 year reunion looking more pudgy than pregnant, and smelling faintly of lice shampoo.  *sigh*

We got home late so somebody went to bed pretty late.  Cecily did not have a good day at church the next day.  Karen and Randy were there; it was fun to see them. Oooooo, and my cousin Kendra's getting married.  Great rejoicing!  So people keep asking me if I know him; while I remember him being at nursing home singings, I didn't talk to boys, especially Morton boys, so I've never actually had a conversation with him.  Hehe.    

Yesterday Cecily and I enjoyed the beautiful weather while I painted door and window frames... 17 down, 6 to go.  Not my favorite thing to paint. I do not have a steady hand and it's hard to get paint off of siding!  But, I would rather have a little paint on the siding and not have to replace rotting windows in a few years.  The process is also made more frustrating by the fact that we have 4 different types of windows and half of the screens are on the outside of the windows.  *Gah*  Who built this place anyway?   

I had an appointment today and they stole much of my blood (she was good though- no bruising so far!).  Little miss got to hang out with Eden.  She was thrilled.  They both were squealing when they saw each other.  And then Daddy brought home his Legos...  she's pretty sure they are for her.

 

Blessings.
