Sunday morning we met Dad for breakfast at Rudy's, then headed over to All Saints for Mass. Bishop Piche had been invited back to say Mass and to dedicate Jackie's stained glass window. It was a beautiful service and he had many wonderful things to say about Jackie as they had worked together for many years prior to him becoming Bishop.
Terri and Todd invited the Saubers and Wallins over for brunch after church, so we ate another delicious meal in the company of family.
Today I went for a run, dropped off a copy of my license with Meg who was heading to SSM this morning, shopped at the co-op, got gas and a car wash and headed back home. One of the projects on my list was to clean out my car -- vacuum, wash the windows, scrub the floor mats, etc. It was a beautiful day so I got to work.
Once the CRV was sparkly clean, I came inside for lunch, made oatmeal scotchies for the Trades of Hope party on Wednesday,
did some laundry and started a new book. (I may or may not have dozed off in the adirondack chair while reading.)
Peter stopped by with some steaks from the county market so we talked until Rob came home. We started weeding the rocks around the house and came across several teeny tiny toads and frogs!
Rob pointed out that they may be cute this year, but next year they'll be large, ugly and croaking from the pond in the backyard. After dinner we went for a long walk in the airpark, reminisced about the conversations we had while on walks when we were in the middle of our dating years and decided we're pretty happy to be right where we are -- married, comfortable, content and happy.

On our way home from the Petersons, we were commenting that we didn't have much else going on for the afternoon/evening and what should we do with the day. We got home, I finished my book (#3 for the summer) while Rob took a little nap. Then I took a nap. In the meantime, Andy J texted Rob to see if we wanted to meet for dinner at Firehouse. Yes! Moments after Rob replied yes, Randy texted asking if we were coming up for Hazel's birthday party. Sure! What started off as a quiet evening quickly turned into a more social night.
