Wonderful Day

Today is such a blessing. It is slightly overcast, not to hot yet, the cub's ankle was well enough to go to school and the other cub has had several wonderful days. He may come over and eat supper with us tonight. I tempted him with roast, potatoes and gravy. Besides, it would be nice to have him here to watch the Monday night football game. We make it fine unless Greenbay (his team) and mine (Dallas Cowboys) are playing. Then trouble may be expected, lol.

The Alien took Friday off and we spent the weekend working around the house and yard. He almost got the deck cleaned and restained. We finally gave up and he went to Wally World and got a power washer and from that minute on he was a regular menace. He had so much fun I think he cleaned everything in the back yard including the dogs, lol

Yesterday was a busy but fun day. We went to Sunday School and Church. I took refreshments for our Sunday School class (blueberry muffins, apple cinnamon muffins, dream bars and a bowl of strawberries, bananas, grapes and pineapple.) Jeff came to both so we got to enjoy his company as well as all our friends. Of course, they all had to come meet him and I think he even got some hugs! Then last night our small group met and we had another wonderful fellowship. I took rice krispie treats to that one. Our group has volunteered to feed the college kids that come to the Ztree (Church bible chair) one night a week for the next four months. Our first night is Wednesday and we are planning on about 60. Very simple menu though, hot dogs, chips, dips, drinks and dessert. Then our group also does the silent auction for the Compassion Outreach Center. It is to help raise money to buy the medications, etc for people who can't afford it otherwise. Last year was our first year to be involved with it and it was lots of fun. So we have lots of things going on and to look forward to.

Looking a little further ahead, we are hoping all get to come Xmas. Do we have a status on this yet?

Got to go, Casper has to go to the vet. He has a very bad sore on his back. Boy does this poor dog ever have allergy problems.
