A very nice, relaxing day after many busy ones! Not that we still didn’t fit a lot in, but at least we weren’t rushing around. I went to the gym this morning, then came home and we played some MarioKart on the Wii. Justin got some work done as well as putzing in the garden a bit, after which we walked downtown, picked up sandwiches for lunch, stopped at the library, and walked home. Justin worked again and I mowed the lawn, and then we both had a chance to sit in the swing or hammock outside in the sun and read our newly borrowed books. This evening we are heading out for small group. The picture is Justin’s view of what got accomplished today…

Not so busy day.
Fun Day
Today after church we drove up to my dad and stepmom’s campsite near Birnamwood, WI. They have their mobile home parked at a year-long campsite and enjoy spending almost all of their weekends there. We finally found a free weekend afternoon to go up and visit with them among all the busy ones! While the weather didn’t exactly cooperate and rained a bit, it ended up clearing up long enough to fire up the grill for burgers. I also brought along those crazy-good flourless chocolate cakes. Yum yum!
Then we headed over to my cousin Thomas’ high school graduation party, where there was plenty more food, but also lots more family to visit and laugh with. There were two backyard game choices, bean bag toss and laddergolf.
Both were going merrily along until someone (I won’t mention any names!) got a little carried away with the golf balls and a set ended up on one of the overhead cables! Much chaos and laughter ensued, until Greg saved the day with a gigantic squeegee.
The gaming commenced, though the direction of the laddergolf game changed slightly to go parallel with the wires!
