Memorial Day Weekend

This weekend marks the 2 year mark of living in our new house.  Wonder how long I can continue to call it "new"?  Guess I need to drop the "new" when I refer to the house.

The holiday weekend started off on Saturday morning with Rod and Tori going to for a ride to Lovelace Cafe and then continuing down Natchez Trace Parkway.  Rod is still amazed with how well Tori is doing on her motorcycle.

Saturday afternoon was the 86th birthday party for my Granny.  We all made "funny" hats with a theme of 86.  Lots of family showed up and it was a blast.

The entire hat gang!

Saturday afternoon Tori and Tina headed to Destin, FL with Laine.  

Sunday wasn't too eventful - Rod brewing beer in the morning, and us going to dinner in the evening.


Monday - Granny, Aunt Sandra, Aunt Carol, Uncle John, Mom and Dad all came over to grill out.  Luckily Granny brought her dog, Scooter, to provide entertainment for us.  He is a dachshund and at one point Bear was laying in the kitchen and Scooter came over to sniff his butt.  Then Rod says "look Bear is taller than Scooter laying down with Scooter standing up".  It was a big day for Scooter - meeting chickens, pigs and goats.

Monday evening had Rod working in the "motorcycle repair shop" that is in my rec room!  I did INSIST that he push it outside before he tried to start the triumph.  He was excited that it did turn over and start... but... it is leaking around the head.  So right now he is down there pushing it back inside so that he can work on that.
