Happy Homemaker 2024-06-03

 Good morning

Last Thursday dh picked up grandkids and they slept here as ds was in another town for work and ddil had a funeral to attend on Saturday (she left earlier) in same town as ds was in.

Friday dh picked up grandkids from daycare and ds came for supper, as soon as his train arrived, and spent the night also.  It was nice out so dh got a fire started in the evning.  Neighbors came to chat for awhile.  

Saturday was the races in our town.  we cheered on the ones that came on our street (the 5km and 2,5 km race), then we went to were the activites where and there were some inflatable games for grandkids, cookies, popsicles, frisbees.  Xavier was in the 1km race - his 1st race.  He was so excited (pics below).  Afterwards we came back for lunch here and they spent the day and left at 9:00 pm.  DDIL was coming back that night too.

Sunday was picking up and then since it was nice out relaxing on the patio in the afternoon.

Let's join Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom .

Looking around the house
The house is fine since I picked up yesterday.  Put the new coverlet on my bed, love the small
pink flowers (like a Laura Ashley type).
Thinking and pondering
My stomach is always bothering me.. wish they would find a cure for Crohn's disease.  I am waaay better than I was at the beginning but never quite allright.
Yay for sunny days!
