Memorial Day Weekend

We went to Ohio on Friday.  

Blogger loaded these pics so out of order that I will just comment on each one.   This first picture is Mike helping Allison with the shot put.   She is doing that as part of her track team.  

Alexander is coaching Andrew on wrestling - on a deck with a step in the middle!!!!!

These goofy kids..............so happy!!!!!

Mike was grilling buffalo burgers on his grill.

Picnic lunch in Ashleys'  back yard.

Back to showing me how the shot put works.  We were at Andrews' baseball practice and she was using a rock.   Showing me the technique.   Maybe that helped because the next day at the track meet she threw a PR and got a medal!!!!!

A boy and his quilt outdoors........

The kids playing after their picnic.

A girl and her quilt....outside.   I made this for her a few years ago.   She loves it!!!   and that makes me feel good!!!

Sunday afternoon we went to Andrews' baseball game.   He got a hit and was on first base.    Paying attention!!!

And when the next up got a hit - off he goes to second base!!!

Alexander is a member of Ventures - a branch of scouting.   His group marched in a parade Sunday morning and again on Monday morning.   The march with rifles - and do salutes with blanks.....at least that is what he said!!!

Back to the picnic.   Ashley and John are reading manuals trying to figure out how to make the buttons in her car open the garage door.   They did!!!!!!!!!

It was good to see everyone.   Monday morning brought rain and we left after breakfast.   Andrew was in the parade with his baseball team, Alexander was marching and Allison was with her dad.    Rain all the way home - and still raining here.  

The lawn is getting long and needs attention - Johns' job.   I need to get plants and seeds in my garden.  

It will all happen in good time..........
