after a pleasant dinner on the deck R made us go on a family bike ride. We went to the wharf and back and up that hill was ha-ar-dd! I had to stop and breathe more than once but I did not walk a single step.
For a bribe R said that anyone who didn't walk could stop at Crazy Larry's for a scoop of ice cream. We all earned it but I only had a child's size because I didn't want to waste the pedaling.
We had a company rich day. This morning Jeffrey and Ellie came over and we ended up inviting them to stay for lunch and swimming. The kids had a great time playing together. We also invited the McCombs, Laura had to take Josh to the doctor but Joseph and Maggie came. I spent my time at the pool counting 6 heads, especially the little three ones. However it was great fun for the kids and I didn't mind even when it rained.
When Laura came to pick up her kids she stayed to visit for a while and that was really fun too :) She also brought me a loaf of chocolate chocolate chip bread and lemon bread with nuts. Ironically I made two loaves of banana bread and two of zucchini orange today so we have lots of sweet bread.
hah! I thought I was the only person who said "gravy" any more- other than to talk about the actual substance. I say good gravy all the time-
ReplyDeleteI have wanted to make banana bread for weeks now- and I can't seem to get it done. :( maybe tomorrow-
