Today was quite a day. It started with us picking the girls up from my moms and heading to the Columbiana Coop to meet Brad, Bethany, and David Herrington. We hoped to get some seeds for our gardens and a bunny or two. There were no bunnies, and we got watermelon seeds. Then we headed home and the Herringtons were coming over so we could put our seeds in seed starters. After they got here Randle's dad called and came over with our niece and nephew, and sister. Then the neighbor boy came up to play. And finally my grandparents came to bring angel food and say hi. We fed the chickens some crickets and worms. We played with the chicks and duckling that Natalie got for her birthday, planted our seedlings, the guys went on a hike on some property and "scampered up a hill and jumped a creek", the kids found a creek, played on the swing, chased each other around/in/out of the house, we cooked dinner(quite and eclectic spread), ate leftover birthday cake, and the kids ended the day rolling down a small incline in an old trash can. Yes, and old trash can. I have no idea where this came from, but the creativity of my children never ceases to amaze me. They had a blast and can't wait for everyone to come again. What a day and list of activites. Now we look forward to tomorrow: church, 50th anniversary party, and human video practice. I have to say this may be one of the best weekends we have had in Alabama. Thanks to everyone who participated and helped make our weekend great.
