(click for today's pictures) 

  • Our first activity this morning was waking up Campbell so Robby could get her to a friend's house. She had a big day at the lake with some friends. It was this evening that Shannon and I went to pick her up-she was mighty red when she climbed into the car. 
  • Robby ran some errands after dropping Campbell off. I was at home and started to work on a few things at home-packing, school prep, and even some baking (I made cookie dough for tonight but then burned half of the batch.)
  • When Robby came home, the house started hopping with everyone getting ready for the Franklin wedding. And you know, we sure didn't take a single picture. Reagan, Keaton, and I spent the majority of the reception in the kitchen cutting and plating the cake. Reagan was so impressed with her cake cutting skills that she wondered if she should pursue it as a career.
  • The boys left the reception as soon as they could, but Keaton and Reagan got to ride home to us with a stop to the grocery store. We were able to do our shopping quickly though. Once at home, we did a few things, and then the Wilson's came over for Sunday night supper on Saturday.
  • When Shannon and I returned from picking up Campbell, I saw a huge black snack crawling up the brick outside of the garage. I had to fuss at Campbell because that girl was going to pick the thing up. I now wish that she did, because when they got the snake down, it crawled under the white van. Then the snake CRAWLED UP UNDER THE WHITE VAN. Robby moved the van in hopes that it will crawl on it.
  • However, here's the deal-I have to drive that car tomorrow to Degray. I could just cry. I have googled it, and a snake really shouldn't be able to enter into a car, but there are so many pictures and stories of that happening. 
  • It's probably not a good time for me to tell Robby that I'm never driving that car again...if I do though, I'll be wearing long pants and gloves!
