We have worked really hard to make our house the "cool" house, so our kids want to bring friends here and be here.  This way we know what they are doing and who they are with.  We have had EVERY child from our neighborhood here lately!!!!  It has been nice to have our children here, but sometimes challenging to have others here.  You know, the ones who's parents hate to have their children home from school for the summer.  Ahhh, patience!!!

Well, I did get some things done here, then ran some errands.  George picked up all the groceries for a cookout and surprised me with the picnic table I wanted for the backyard!  He put it together, then cooked us a nice dinner!  We ate out on the new table and all went swimming afterward.
