We did soooo much!!

This weekend is so much a blur because we did so much in such a short time, but boy was it a fun time for everyone!! Aaron and his buddies from church all headed out Friday afternoon to go dove hunting. They all piled in my Tahoe and had a great time shooting cans, grasshoppers and a few doves. They didn't even shoot their limit, all together. Pretty funny. They did have a good time and that is all that matters. Us women folk stayed around here and went swimming at our friends house on Saturday. We just relaxed and enjoyed the sunshine, my kind of day.

Some of our friends from Graham called on Saturday and wanted to know if Susie wanted to come over for the rest of the weekend and stay with them and of course she went. She and her buddy, McKynna played and played all the weekend long and we picked her up last night.

While we were minus one child, we went to Six Flags on Sunday after church with the Brownstones, The Crazy Byrnes 6, and Vic Akers. We were quite the huge group at the Flags and that place was PACKED. Note to self: Do NOT go to Six Flags on a National Holiday weekend. But, like always, we were all just happy to be together and it really didn't matter that we only rode 10 or 12 rides. Six Flags now closes at 7PM on the weekends...just nuts, I think, but we all got out of the park and enjoyed some more time together eating out. Vic's birthday was on Saturday so we got the waiter at the restaurant to really sing good to him. He got to wear the big hat and everything. Pretty funny.

Yesterday morning we all were invited to the Akers house for breakfast and swimming to celebrate Vic's birthday, again!! So we ate and ate and ate some more...it was great food. The kids swam and played up in the pool room and then we decided to go over to the local water park. We haven't been all summer so we figured that we better remedy that problem! It was so much fun and Parker LOVED it! He even rode one of the big tube rides with Aaron. I was a little leery, but he did great! It started raining about 4:30 and would you know, they closed the park down, but they gave us all rain checks for next season!!! So, we had a great time at the water park and we get to come back next season one day for FREEEEEE!!! I love it!

Great weekend with great friends, it doesn't get much better than that....okay, well it could have been better if the Vols and the Seminoles would have won, but that is asking a little too much, don't ya think?

We are off to get Susie ready for her meet the teacher day!! Happy Tuesday!!
