Family Day

Frankie, Rachel and the children came around 1:30 PM today. It was so good to see them. I met them at Walmart and we bought some groceries for the visit. After lunch, we walked down the road to feed Danny Boy some apples. Then we noticed the Calvert's alpaca herd. It seems like they have 6 alpacas. Luke got one to come up to the fence but it didn't want an apple. We saw some horses at the end of the road so we had to walk down there to feed those horses! It was a fun trip.

I cooked 3 lbs. of potatoes to make potato salad. Kayla chopped the potatoes and the hard boiled eggs up and mixed everything together. I almost forgot the sweet pickle relish but remembered after one bite of the salad. There were some hot wings left over from when Forrest was here and everyone enjoyed them. Mariam and Josh played with Play Doh for a while before we walked down the road. After supper, Kayla and Luke played computer games with Grampie and Kayla also practiced the piano for a while.

It's 8:30 PM and all is quiet. Everyone is tired. I said we needed to leave for church at 9:00 AM. That way we would get a good seat and would be on time. We'll have Josh and Mariam's birthday party after supper. Trudy and her family are coming over for a while. George's father is in the hospital with heart and bladder problems. It'll be good having everyone over.
