like being at the beach.....

Having Chris, Kathy, Landon and Katilyn down this past weekend was alot like one of our beach trips. Everyone was around, eating, laughing, just enjoying spending time with each other.

They got to our house around 3:00 Saturday afternoon, and were met by us and 3 shirtless men up on our roof. The roofers were supposed to be there last Monday or Tuesday, but "surprised" us Saturday afternoon at about 2:45. (Don't you just love dealing with people who think there's no big difference between Monday and Saturday? I know I do!)

We left for dinner at the Mellow Mushroom at around 5:30. Saturday night was apparently "Feel Like You're Standing in Front of One of Our Brick Ovens" night. Since it was an artic 91 outside, they decided to open the doors and let the hot air circulate. After a few minutes, we adjusted to the heat and had a good time in spite of the temperature. We walked around downtown for about an hour, then drove to see the big bridge on the Natchez Trace. That night we hung out talking and having fun.

Chris and I played golf at Forrest Crossing Sunday morning. I woke up and it was raining, but it didn't rain us out. It sprinkled a couple of times, but nothing major. And the clouds remained all morning long, so that gave us some relief from the heat. We came back, ate lunch, then went to the mall. After we got home, most of us went to the pool for a couple of hours. Then we came back for supper and another good evening at home.

We'll miss going to the beach with the Moffitts this year. But being able to spend some time with them the past few days was very nice.
