• I didn't have to empty the dishwasher this morning before church since we were barely at home for any meals. However, I had lots and lots of laundry that needed to be folded before church, and that sure didn't happen. Robby was able to fold a few towels, but there was still a pile of laundry when we came home from church.
• After church we went to Grannymom's house for lunch. She had a Dennie family favorite-orange chicken and fried rice. Well, I think that everyone likes it but Whitman. However, you can't please everyone all of the time. We can't figure out why he doesn't like the chicken though-he won't even eat it with the sauce off of it, but he will eat a chicken nugget, and I'm not sure what is different.
• We then ran to Sams to look at a few things-a new freezer being one of those things. We didn't get it and need to do a bit more research, but if I get a new freezer maybe I will be more organized in my food.
• I'm still trying to be organized-this afternoon I even worked on tomorrow's organizing list-a closet upstairs. I have two attics that need desperate attention along with my whole kitchen and the entire school room and really, I could go on and on. But I do feel like I am getting there-one little section at a time.
• Robby worked in the yard today. He burned the other burn pile and spent a good deal of time on that side of the house. It needs some more attention, but he has it looking really good right now. I think that he is enjoying cutting a bit less yard here since the neighbors are keeping the back up.
• I did have a short nap this afternoon-well, it probably wasn't that short since I didn't even hear Whitman make his afternoon popcorn. When I did wake up, it was time for me to get to work-weekly schedule, a bit of VBS work, concession stand scheduling, grocery list and getting the weekly chore list ready. I seemed to have spent a good deal of time just writing.
• The kids headed off to their things-Reagan didn't have her life group tonight so she just took Anderson to his group and then went to Target along with Keaton. Graham's life group was cancelled as well, so he went to Rock Creek with Campbell. 
• Then we all met up at the Wilosn's house for supper. Shannon had chicken which we need to learn to cook. We stayed-even watched some blackstone cooking videos before heading home. Once at home, though, it was time to get ready for Monday morning.
