Caution:

Long, boring post ahead.

 

It was a good day.

The sun was out

so it was warm in the sun.

Remember my playhouse

that Stuart built me for Christmas.

 

Today her foundation was poured.

Soon she will make the move

to the back yard.

It pays to have several irons in the fire.

You can pour concrete on a Sunday.

Jade helped along with Stu,

and his big brother Doug.

It took ten minutes, seriously.

They really can do anything.

The dogs were on hand to watch.

Harley

 and

  the girls, Reta and Stella

Aubrie and Everett came for the day.

Aub has a cold.

She is being kept away from Ollie.

Abbie and Zac were blisters.

They showed up after the work was done.

Well they did help trim some trees.

They were paid with popcorn.

Aubrie babysat these all day.

She was convinced

she could hatch them.

Everett took a nap with his

to keep it warm.

Aubrie rocked hers to sleep.

She said she was keeping

them safe from "creditors".

Apparently, they don't pay their bills.

Well, maybe she meant predators.

Aubrie is spending the night

in hopes that no one

will catch her cold.

Ev was bummed he had to go home.

However, tomorrow

I will be keeping Caroline,

Aubrie and Everett.

Come to think of it...

our plan doesn't really make much sense.

That's Sunday.

We are fascinating rock stars.

His plan

Life is busy.

It seems like the faster we go 

the faster it goes. 

My list grows longer 

with each warmer day.

Wash windows,

deep clean,

clean porches,

rake flower beds,

and on and on.

This weekend the weather is mild.

However, my yard is a spongy mess.

Maybe next weekend, I can work in the yard.

Today was a good day,

Mom and Dad came to see the baby.

(makes me glad I got those Target headbands cheap)

 Ev was off on an adventure and 

Caroline was with her other Gtandma.

We had a nice time

and we partook of 

the I Love Lucy

marathon on Hallmark.

It thrilled us all.

My mom laughed at the shows

until she cried.

She and Dad sat on the loveseat

and held hands.

It felt good to see them

laughing together.

All the while holding

a sweet baby girl.

A gratuitous shot of Caroline

with the rabbit ears on Friday.

I couldn't convince Everett to wear any.

 

Today was not the day I planned.

 I didn't get yard work done.

I didn't get woodwork washed.

In the bigger, better picture

I did, however 

make  crafts with Aubrie.

I hung with Jackie,

Mom and Dad.

We  made memories.

Blessed, we are!!

I sang this song 

all  the way home.

Next time, your plans are foiled

look at it for the blessing it can be.
