Day After Thanksgiving!

What do you do after Thanksgiving?
Well, in the day time we had the septic tank drain dug up by LaVar's brother Brett, because he has a tractor.
Oliver was interested to go out and see the "swimming pool" Grandad had dug. The smell with that thought was an interesting contrast.

I heard the definition of "Men Working", one actually doing the work and other men watching the work getting done. Here's our version.


Brett built a wonderful bonfire for us to all enjoy. The embers looked like fireworks. He had the young children throw pinecones in the fire.
Tim, Laura and family left on Saturday afternoon. With all the good-byes said and kissed exchanged the needed to return to get Sam's "kitty" that Oliver found at the Greats house. That avoided a near tragedy, for the trip home and beyond. Then Micah, Stephanie, and Max left. They wished someone had help them know they were forgetting some games for the Wii they were selling as soon as they got home.
So as things go we have not found very many things people have left here.
We are very appreciative of the effort you all made to travel here. We really missed those of you that we didn't get to spend time with.

I laughed so hard at the definition of men working. My husband comes from a family of 6 boys so I see a lot of that!
