Beware of holes in the ground!!!!
This is how our weekend started Friday afternoon. Greg's cutting grass and a swarm of hornets come out of the ground. Thankfully he runs fast and didn't get stung. Called the exterminator, and he took care of the 6 inch hole in the ground. Woke up Saturday morning to a leak under the sink. (Yes, we ran the dishwasher overnight!!) Called the plumber but he couldn't come until Monday! Called our neighbor, who fixes everything, at the insistence of Steph. Mitch came over and fixed the leak. Put the fan in front of the sink to dry it out. Eventually I put back all the cleaning supplies stored underneath. Next, Steph tells me she wants to invite a new guy she's dating over Sat. night and could I please put away all the 4th of July decorations I have sitting in the dining room, waiting for me to pack and take to our storage unit. So I worked all day cleaning up the 4th of July decorations and stuff in the basement (where they were going to watch a movie). Finally at 3:30 I got ready to go out to dinner with a couple of neighbors who were taking us out for our 25th wedding anniversary. We left at 4:30 and ate dinner at Tucker's in Soulard. (Personally, I thought it was kind of early but I know most people eat earlier than Mike and I.) We came home and turned the corner of our street and found this: A SURPRISE PARTY FOR US!!!! Given by Steph and Greg!!! It was overwhelming turning the corner and seeing about 80 people you love!!! Our families and friends all came for us. I cried like a baby and Mike had tears in his eyes. With each person I saw, I said, "OH my God!" then cried and hugged them. It was an unbelievable evening. I feel truly blessed to have so many unbelievable people in our lives. Mike and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with all the people we love. It can't get much better than that! I can't express how proud we are of Steph and Greg to have done this for us!Monday, July 27, 2009
