Weekend Roundup

We had a very busy and fun weekend, this past. Saturday we volunteered at the Humane Society garage sale, which was actually a lot of fun. We got there at 7 to help set up, and stayed until mid afternoon. They had a ton of stuff, lots more than the past couple of years, and we think they took in a lot more cash than in the past.



We found some cool stuff, another folding aluminum lawn chair (which we seem to be collecting now), a quilt, a kid's book for Jen & Kelly's kids, some stuff for Matthew and an incredible find by Carrie which will get its own entry.

We got home, cleaned up and relaxed a little, and then Chris and Jeannie came over for dinner and fun. We had chili and cornbread and they brought a yummy carrot cake. Chris tried to resurrect my GPS (to no avail), but I appreciate his trying. We caught up on what's happening with their jobs and lives. Chris is really assuming some awesome responsibilities at Gillette and I'm so proud of him in every way!




We played lots of Molly 13 and even though it was Jeannie's first time she caught on right away and was pretty much pasting us by the time we quit. I'm sure next time we play she'll nail us to the wall. It was so nice to see them both, and very relaxing and fun as usual.

Sunday morning we pretty much hung around, I did some gardening. In the afternoon Molly came over to spend the night. Another great time as always with Molly. We just hung out, made shrimp on the grill for dinner (turns out we'd made that before for her, but she was very gracious and said she liked it).



We also played Molly 13 with Molly (of course), watched the finale of The Sopranos and then played more cards. This morning we went out to breakfast at Ava's in New Richmond, and then I had to scoot to St Paul as I had an appointment at the Red Cross. Time with Molly always seems to go too fast. Oh, she got a new car, a Mitsubishi Lancer, and it's quite cool. Molly rocks!
