Good morning!
It was a 4-day weekend for me (had exchanged last Monday for last Friday for my day off work).. too many people on vacation at work last Monday so they asked me in.
Picked up Xavier Friday around 4:30 and brought him with us to McD's for supper - he had a nice time watching all the cars go by on the boulevard (boys!) He left Sunday after supper.
Saturday my parents, sis and brother-in-law arrived for lunch and they left Sunday morning (with lots of stuff to donate to my niece - she had chosen what she wanted from pics I sent her).
My son was on a fishing weekend so ddil came with Anne-E around 11:00 Saturday and they left after supper sunday.
It was a nice family time

Cute funny, but cuter smile on Anne E! Sounds like you had some great family time and a nice long weekend. I hope this week is just as nice with the cooler weather.
ReplyDeleteHello dear Friend! Sounds like it was a fun short work week and great family time. I'm so sorry that your Mom sounds like she's becoming worse. I empathize as I was a caregiver for my MIL with the same thing for many years. Sending big prayers for strength - and giant hugs!! Your Anne Elizabeth is an absolute doll! 😍 Love your funny!! 😂
