Since Phil never gets a day off like most workers do, we never paid as much attention to the long weekends as we do now that our daughter gets the long weekend and comes home! 🙂 Deeeelightful!
K even got off early on Saturday and was here in time to join us for the last 5 minutes of church on Saturday night. Apologies to my seat neighbors as she bounded in to a hug! We all went to Culver’s for supper afterwards and JP & K were comparing electronics while Phil & I sat and enjoyed “seeing” our kids!
After supper, JP headed home, Phil got sent to the grocery, and K & I picked up a Papa Murphy’s pizza and a few goodies at Joann’s.
On Sunday morning, Phil, K, & I went to the nearby state park for their yummy breakfast buffet while JP was at church drumming. He had made pie to share with the team on Saturday. He brought home plenty of leftovers so he got to share with K & Phil too!
On the way home, we drove past Phil’s grandmother’s old house. I’m surprised at how much K remembers about the house since Gma was moved to the nursing home soon after K turned 4! Memories back from ages 2 & 3 are pretty vivid. 🙂
Of course, 2 of us chose naps Sunday afternoon. Look who found K taking a nap in front of the TV!
Sunday evening Phil’s parents came over for pizza. That is so nice about picking up a pizza from Papa Murphy’s…. we can get it while in town and then bake it when needed! They like having pizza but don’t buy one for just themselves. Plus it was fun to visit around the table. (They got pie, too! So many leftovers!)
Today we all went to an auction. JP left soon after it started as the gun sale wasn’t that great. I ended up with a partially quilted quilt. I’m thinking I’ll unquilt it and redo it. The fabrics are all in good condition and I’ll work on a few of the stains.
JP headed out to a church party this evening and K headed back home after an early supper. Tonight I worked on a new quilt design and Phil worked on his small group lesson. Nina is lonely with the kids gone!
Had a blast! Was so glad to be able to come home and rest!
Such fun you guys had!
Love Nina on the carpet where she’s not allowed, LOL! And love the new-to-you auction quilt – looks like it will be fun to play with! What all is involved in undoing it??? Loads of seam ripping to get out the quilting stitches???? Sounds like a big job….? I vote you save it until after the current “being drawn now…” quilt! 😉
Nina knows when K is home, the rules seem to fly out the window! And she knows where to beg for food. :eyeroll:
Yes, the unquilting will be saved until after the current project. The quilting is big stitches so won’t be too much to get it out. LOL!! E already offered to unsew another quilt so it would be possible that she’d love the job. She’s been complaining I haven’t been sending her bindings to sew down. 🙂
