Saturday Morning

Well it was the big sleep over last night with ALL the grand kids sacked out on our living room floor. They are still sleeping as I write; but it was nearly 10:30 before the last one finally fell asleep. The day started out on Friday withe temp's still on the chilly side but did manage to break the 70's by late afternoon. The breeze still kept it on the chilly side in the shaded areas.

After an early start with the usual 5:30 crowing contest next door I did hang around in the sack until 6:30. There was no pickle ball today so I had my usual spot of tea and then lingered on the computer catching up on some back scripture reading before having a lite breakfast. Nancy and I are reading the entire Bible this year taking a chapter a day from both the New and Old Testament. So far I'm in Samuel and Timothy.

Nancy's Mr.Coffee failed to work last night as it just plum wore out so she was off to purchase a new one and Amy dropped Sam off for me to watch while she was at her Bible study. Nancy was still having too much cold symptoms to be around the older ladies so she skipped going to the study with Amy. She picked up some Zrytec at the grocery store and it seems to be helping with her runny nose, etc. Amy came by and had lunch with us as we ate on the tortilla soup then she took Sam and headed home. The Ross Family was coming for supper later on.

Well I cut lots of Romaine for a nice Caesar salad then cut lots of Swiss chard for a skillet full of sauteed greens, Yeow both of the dishes from the garden were very tasty as well as the chicken fried deer steak. I made a milk mushroom gravy from the dripping and we put that over Jasmine rice. Yeow that was some good eatin' and even the kids enjoyed it until we let it slip that the steak was deer, so automatically Ava didn't like it any longer, Oh well!!! After getting the kids bathed while Tyler and I did the supper cleanup we got a movie on for the kids then we managed to get in a game of OH -ell!!

Well it was thought we would let Sam go home with Amy and Tyler but he fell asleep first so we just covered him up. We had made a huge pallet on the floor with quilts and blankets so all 4 of the kids slept crashed there. It was their first big sleep over together. Well the peace and quiet has just abated as the sleep over has just become the big party once again. I'm cutting this short as of right now due to the boys chasing the girls and squeal's are everywhere, LATER
