Our Weekend

We had a great fun-filled weekend. It started off with us getting up at 4:30 (and yes that is AM) to go see the balloon races at Point Mallard. It is well worth getting up that early! It is truly an awesome sight to see 50-something balloons being inflated right in front of you and then to see them lift off into the sky!




Last night after services we some friends over for supper. We grilled out hamburgers and had homemade ice cream. I think that we all had a great time....at least I know that I did!! :)
Today, the girls and I are off to go spend the day at my parent's house. Poor Daniel decided that he would go into work today and defer his day off until next month...he is going to miss my Dad's excellent smoked chicken. :) I hope that everyone has a wonderful day.

    I totally understand you not coming to the party after getting up that early. I was awake at 4:15 and I almost didn't go to my own surprise party! LOL

    The scrapbooking sounds like so much fun...I have no idea at this time if I could come but I will try. I could use a day like that! Thanks so much for thinking of me!

    The first weekend or first full week? either one is ok for me. I have the first full week penciled in for it already. I don't care, just let me know so I can work my days off in.

    Yes, they all look good to me. I'm not picky when it comes to where to stay.

    What is wrong with the girls? Have you decided on which house we are staying in for the beach?

    I am afraid that the final move will be a long drawn out thing. But we got Janet and Pete a place to sleep when they move up next month. We'll call ya'll when an extra large load comes up.:)
