Full Weekend

Wow. Is it really Sunday night already?! Seems like we were just pulling in the drive saying, "whew, TGIF". And now I am wondering where the weekend went??? Friday night we got all of the annuals planted in all the pots and planters. Saturday morning the kids stayed with mom and dad while I got the house ready for an open house from 2-4pm. Saturday night Colby had a friend stay overnight and then she went with her for the day today. Today I was feeling like I needed a break from everything and we needed to have a non-structured day. So we slept in a little. Messed around the house awhile. Colby went with her friend to make pottery in Davenport. Creighton and I and Maddie spent the day playing. Nothing too significant but it was nice to not HAVE to be anywhere today and not have to get anything accomplished necessarily. We didn't have to get up early, didn't leave the house until about 11am, visited gramma and grampa, played at the park, went to the Charthouse for lunch, stopped at a friend's cabin on the Mississippi, back to the park, back to gramma and grampa's, pick up Colby, came home, watered flowers, went for a bike ride, played catch with the football, ate supper, took showers, went to bed. That's it--the day in a nutshell! Greg worked ALL weekend so we didn't even really see him at all. Now I am going to finish up the laundry, pack bags for tomorrow, clean the kitchen and lights out for me too.

Headed to the park. Just a short walk from Gramma and Grampa's house....

Climbing trees. 100% pure boy......

They 'staged' this and wanted me to take their picture :)

Throwing sticks into the river at Kathy's cabin. Nothing safer and more sanitary than playing the Mississippi floodwater :)
