Grandkids, Roasted Marshmellows, Hayride, Fun

Last weekend was gorgeous.  I enjoyed it to the fullest.  On Saturday I spent the day with Keesi, Shawn, Mazy and Bo and we had a great time.  Shawn and I went to a flea market and consignment sale in the morning.  Both were at the fair grounds in DMS and there were really good crowds.  It's nice to see the fair grounds being used so much since it is getting nicer and nicer there.  Next we headed to a Mexican Resturant for lunch and then back to the house for naps.  While the boys were napping Keesi and I went to Architectual Salvage in DMS---Troy and his boss really need to go there.  Fun to see all they have and compare it to what I have.  After that we browsed through Valley Junction and enjoyed the fun shops and nice weather.  My glass of wine at a roof top garden was faaantastic.  Late in the afternoon we headed to the World Food Fair and enjoyed the tastes, sights and sounds.  Great time.

Sunday was the 45th Annual Wirt Picnic.  Smallest crowd ever, one of the nicest days ever.  We had a hayride, walked down that killer hill to get to where we used to have the picnic (I miss having it there) and then came back to our house for supper.  Mom and Dad joined us along with Doug, Jean and Marla, Keesi, Shawn and boys, Bandy, Kindi and girls and Troy, Keri and boys.  What a crowd.  I loved it.  We missed you Luetts!

How Can You Not Love October?

October is here.  My house is decorated for fall/halloween or halloween/fall depending on how you want to look at it.  This is my favorite time of year.  Harvest is in full swing so everyone at home is busy busy busy.  So far things are going well--no accidents.  Troy comes and helps almost every week night when he gets home so I get to see a lot of Maddox which is a bonus.  Kael is playing flag football and I've been going to his games on Tuesdays.  In case you have somehow forgotten, I love football!   Next weekend is the 45th Annual Wirt Picnic.  Hardly anyone will be here because everyone came home last year.  They moved it up so they could have it on 10/10/10.  I know at least two of our kids are coming---not sure about B and his family.  I know that H & S are not going to make it this year.  Today we are supposed to get a new fuse box at our house.  I hope the electrician comes because I am scared to death that it will catch on fire before he can get there to fix it!  The trials of living in an old house!!  On a more pleasant note, yesterday was a perfect fall day and I spent part of it fishing with Dad, Keesi, Mazy and Bo.  Good times.
