Hope it's been a good Saturday for everyone. We had a great day! We FINALLY had LadyBug's birthday party. It has been a challenge to pull off. You may remember I fell and hurt my ankle on her birthday the 23rd. They had a surprise party planned for her at church but instead we had to take off to the ER. After some finagling and planning we were able to do it today.
I am still hobbling and there was no way for me have it at our house. So a friend was nice enough to allow us to do it at their house. We combined it with a ballgame and finger foods and had a blast. Thanks to them allowing everyone to invade their home, I was able to just enjoy the day. No worrying over how I would manage to get the house and yard ready!
I was able to see an old friend and meet her family. Our children made instant friends as we knew they would. What a blessing that it is a small world! It's so good to reunite with such sweet folks after all these years.
The GuitarMan brought friends home this weekend for the party. So we had a houseful up until tonight. This afternoon we all got outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather. The little ones played hide-n-seek. Cornbread is so cute when he finds his sisters!The FisherMan even played football with all the kids out in the yard. Now that was entertainment to see!
The children were exhausted by tonight but were happy and excited over the day. Aren't those kind of days just so good? Just that happy, contented tiredness that comes from a day of laughter and fellowship. FlowerChild mentioned it felt like Christmas. I know exactly what she meant. Family. Friends. It's good stuff.
Oh, good. I'm happy that you had a good day.
