It all started Friday evening. I drove down to Kristen’s folks house to have dinner and pick up Kristen and the kids. While I’m not a natural "big family" guy I really enjoy having Megan and Paul around their cousins and grandparents. So Friday night went in a blur.
Saturday we got the play structure. Overall it was a yard day as we added yet more flowers to the yard and I got the front yard mowed and cleaned up. I’m having a general frustration with my gas blower/vacuum thing… I must have pulled that starter 250 times and it never got started well enough to actually work for me. Annoying!
Sunday, obviously is "church day." With Bob out of town I had a couple more things to do than normal but not an obnoxious amount. After church I was in charge of running the last name change meeting. I tried my best to answer questions and keep everyone united through the discussion. (I mean that in an emotional way since there are obviously good people on both sides of the name change discussion.) I left church at roughly 2:00 and then went out to lunch with a church family. I finally got home from church at about 3:30 PM. Long day, stay home right? Of course not.
The "big meet" was last night. I went over to YMX member, Bryan the madposter’s, house for dinner with Todd, Kim, and their friends. Also present was Chicago YMXer Cathy. I just kind of hung out and didn’t say a whole lot. But it was a lot of fun to hang out with Todd, Kim, Bryan, Cathy, Mary, Matt, Chris, and a few "non-YMX" folks.
