Other than some frustrations and emotions yesterday, we had a really great weekend. Friday we ventured about an hour away to attend the graduation party of a friend's son. It was in a barn, so we generally felt safe being around people.
Saturday evening our dear friends came over. It was the third consecutive Saturday evening we had spent together, as well as seeing them at the grad party Friday evening. The day was hotter than heck, but since they didn't come until the evening it was more tolerable. We left the kids to order pizza while we drove about ten minutes to a winery. We did a tasting, then had a wine slushy. Oh goodness, that was good! We then drove back to town for dinner. After dinner, we picked up all the kids and walked around campus. Our friends are both alums, although I didn't know either of them in school. We have several mutual acquaintances from those days, but I didn't know them. It was such fun to walk around together, and our friend took some fun pictures of the kids. We only had about an hour of daylight, but that was plenty because even at 9:30, the heat index was 92 degrees! Ugh! They came back and hung out for a bit before making the drive home. We are so very grateful for their friendship.
Last evening, our family sat together and watched the movie Tin Cup. I knew Thomas especially would enjoy it, and Catherine did as well. I love listening to my kids laugh (although their need to provide continuous commentary during a movie makes me a little crazy!). It was really a fun way to end a really fun weekend!
