Anabel's grad party

 It started raining and Missy joined us on the porch wondering what to do ... put furniture in garage ... or tables in the garage.  It worked out even tho at times is was drizzling.  Luke kindly went in to Arthur to see if perchance cookies were there for the grad party.  About 1pm  people started coming.   Jessica M. kindly asked if she could help, and she kept cookie trays and the fruit bowl filled. About 125 people came to celebrate Anabel.  It worked out very well, I think.  

Geting ready

 Nice to have family here.  We worked planning on spaces for Grad party.  Luke and Karen got here around 3:30.  I got flowers from Jane H. at PP.  Rose and I put them in vases.  Sophia came over to help go thru pictures.  

Yes Jensens arrive!!

 We kept busy all day.  I spent all morning in the house kitchen.  
  We mowed, Denny wanted a diagonal design.   Then we got the cabin ready for inhabitants.  Let vacuuming of dead bugs, tightening of water connections.  Another carpet cleaning of basement.  lREALLY don't know what the odor is and how to get rid of it.  We'll keep trying.  We did hang the building dates or arigine on the CSA, bunk house, coop and Cabin. Nice to get that done.  They got here around 7.  SO GOOD to have them here.  Sophia came and hung with Anabel. Sophi came to visit Anabel.  Lord, thank you for their friendship.  May they continue to grow in you. Brooks got his wish and started the visit with  shooting a bunny.  $5.

Ball games

 I met with 2 for Huddle  Tori and Elsie.  Two more came after.  We left about 5 for the boys' ball games.  Pretty fir tp watch them.  Tyler was sad because he went after his hat that blew off and didn't get to play pitcher that inning.  Toshi came over to get good international phone connection.  

We went to ball games in Cherokee at 6 and 6:30.  Fun to watch the boys.  Tyler was saddened one inning he went out to play pitcher, his hat blew off, and as he went after his hat another player grabbed the pitching mound.  The hardship of life for a 6 year old.  Denny smoked some pork.  for this weekend.  We worked on getting the place ready.  Tables out, lawn mowed, Chairs around the table. table on patio.  

Cherokee

UP for OGT.  I got scotcheroos from Sheila and then headed to Cherokee for an afternoon with the boys.  Lunch at the HS.  Home to play in the crawl space with leggos. and money,  We went to the pool for about an hour.  Then home, I got groceries before heading to the farm.  

Heading home

Jean went with me while I went to look for plants.  Arlen fixed breakfast and we headed to  DM and then home.  Missy and Brooks are at a BB shooting camp until noon.  Drive home for FCA meeting with the girls.  Not much sleep, no coffee ... makes for a long quiet drive.  Just know that I am not much of a talker anyway.  6 gals came for FCA,  It was pretty sweet under the tree.   Thank you Jesus!!
