Ashley came to spend the weekend with us (YEA!). Friday we grilled and ate out on the back patio under the umbrella that we've had for two years and never put up (I'm not sure why), and then Todd Sr mowed, and Daniel I weeded five of our seven flower beds and replanted four hostas we had transplanted from the front yard.
We rounded out the day with fishing at Fellowship Point (Nobody caught a thing - Todd Jr was sure it was because we weren't using live bait) and a campfire complete with S'mores (We replaced the Hershey bars with Reeces p-nut butter cups - sooo good!). Since we had already set off all of our fireworks with Adam before he left for Kenya, we sat by the fire and had a panoramic view of all of the neighborhood firework sights and sounds.
Saturday was pretty laid back as well. Todd, Ashley, Daniel and I went garage sale-ing in the afternoon and came up with a few finds. Todd got a DVD, Daniel found a Super Nintendo game he didn't have, and I walked away with a grill pan. Cost of items - $4. Memories - Priceless.
We again attempted fishing at Fellowship Point (this time with live bait) and scored a few (tiny) fish. Ashley, Todd Jr, Tom Sprunger, Todd Sr. and I each found success. I even touched a worm and baited my own hook, only to promptly lose it while casting it into the water.
We had a great weekend, but it wasn't the same without Adam... Keep him in your prayers!
