Memorable Memorial Day

Monday started out with nice sunshine and a cool breeze that quickly turned into a warm and humid day.
I finished some prep for the evening picnic with the family while Craig and Jeff started priming the walls on the room addition Jeff has been contracted to do.  I went and helped for awhile.



The guys were able to get it all primed and painted and Jeff also finished the drywall on the back side of the room.  Tomorrow the flooring goes in and the trim and it will nearly be done.
The guys quit around 4pm and Jeff picked up his family and Todd came at 5pm and Jeff, Rachel and their three children came shortly after.  


Craig had prepared a scavenger hunt for the kids all around this big field... while the sun was still shinning thinking they could have some fun once the picnic was over.

They had predicted scattered thunderstorms and it had started to cloud up as everyone was arriving.  We relaxed a moment and then decided to eat while the weather was still good.... hot, humid but dry.
The food was great and everyone chipped in cleaning up just as the wind picked up and the rain started.  We piled into the RV... all eight of us and the dog.


Kara and Ty up by the TV.  Jeff on the floor, then Kristen, Craig, Rachel and Todd.



Calvin seemed to enjoy the party.  We kept thinking it would let up so we could do the prepared scavenger hunt, but as it started to get dark, we gave up hope and everyone needed to get home because of school and work tomorrow.


We all decided it was a good thing that we didn't have to figure out how to sleep all of us in the RV for the night.  I'm sure we will all be glad just to sleep in our own beds.
And that was our day.

Hope you had a great weekend.

Blessings,
Kathy
