We have had quite a day...planting, eating, visiting...Cheryl and I got out the gardening tools, etc.this morning in anticipation of much needed help in the form of Melany, Wade, and Alex. Woody walked to the library this morning and stopped by the pharmacy on the way back to pick up one of my prescriptions. Cheryl and I started weeding before Melany and family got here. By the time they arrived we had it ready enough for plant placement. Wade helped decide where was best to put the different types of plants. Then he and Melany started digging holes to put them in. Graham got his gardening bag and helped too. Alex headed over to Nathan and Kathy's and helped them to paint their swing set. They were painting with a barn red...and it looked like we had many walking wounded! For lunch Woody and I took over the corned beef touchdowns, potato chips, and corn to Nathan and Kathy's and we all ate on their screened in porch...nice to be rid of flies, bees, and mosquitos. After we ate, Melany treated us to an art exhibit of many of her art and photography projects from her classes this semester. Then we big folk visited while the children played with K'nex. Then Melany, Wade and Alex headed back home and our Dorrell neighbors drifted one-by-one back to their house. After we had a light supper, Graham, Abigail, and Joy joined us for a walk around the block. We took carrots tonight hoping to get to feed the horses that we pass, but they weren't near the fence tonight...so the children ate the carrots! After our walk, Cheryl and I made a Walmart run.
