family and a lazy day.....

The Friday night date with Sara went well. There were six dads who got together with their daughters for supper before the dance. And the girls learn the going-to-the-bathroom-in-a-herd thing at an early age. Two got up to go, and within 10 seconds the other four followed. We stayed at the dance until the last song was played.

We spent Saturday just hanging out with Devonna and Mom and Dad. After lunch, Dad and I got to spend some time together running around the Cool Springs area and drooling over plasma televisions and other electronic items. That night, Julie, Dale and Grace joined the rest of us for supper. Just being around each other as a family was nice.

Yesterday was a bit unusual for us, but extremely relaxing and restful. Mom and Dad spent the night with us Saturday night, so we decided that rather than rush around and get ready for church before they left, we'd just spend time with them. If we made it to late service, fine; if not, no big deal. It was a rainy day, and we ended up staying in all day long. The bride and I did some reading on our books and got caught up on all our shows that we taped last week but had yet to watch. The past week we've all had a bit of a sore throat, so it was nice to be able to let our bodies just exist and recover a little before heading into another week.

Now it's back to another week of work. But I've got our trip to look forward to.....

P.S. - Tonight the bride is hosting Bunco at our house. I'll be taking the girls out for a couple of hours so that we won't "mess up the Bunco players' concentration". Takes ALOT of skill to roll those dice just right.....oh, and scream because you may have won $5.....
