Started Friday as all my Mom's sisters came to Sonya's to do the final deep clean after she moved out...true FAMILY.
Friday night at the Calmus' house...here Jade and her bestest bud Cate Ryan happily shared some Craisins! Some of the guys went fishing that day and so it was supposed to be a "fishfry" where they were going to cook their catch. After we'd eaten our fill and talked them up on their fishing, they admitted that they let ALL of their fish go, and BOUGHT the fresh catfish at our local fishmarket. Already cleaned and filleted. Clever boys. He he.
Saturday was spent with this group- our biggest Ethiopia supporters...helping Teri and I do a car wash to raise money for our trip! It was fun. Hot... but fun! Thanks to any of you who came out and helped, to those of you who let us make your car sparkle for this great cause, and to TN Bank and Trust for letting us have it there. It was a great success! We may do it again next weekend, so for those of you who couldn't make it out, you might get another chance! Stay posted...
My wonderful husband (who LIVES for the World Cup!) actually sacrificed watching the big USA game on Saturday to help me with the car wash...so that evening we went to Jesse and Amanda's who had DVRed it. Technology is amazing! Sad loss...but we were classic watching "old news" as though it were LIVE.
...and when the kiddos got tired of soccer, we stuck them in the bathtub! Always a good trick!
And today was another sad loss...Rich's homeland lost their game today, too...so England is also out of the World Cup. The only thing that could cheer up my Englishman was a sonic drink (which Jadybug and I are always up for!)...and some "us" time at our farm. Watching this girl and horses could cheer anyone up...she stood on this HUGE fallen tree and called them forever...
Hope your weekend was as peaceful as ours...
