Saturday:
Got up early and fixed my covered dishes to take for the Saturday night fish fry. Mid afternoon, Michelle, the boys and I went over to Dwayne's cousin, Penny's house for a 50th birthday party. They also surprised Michelle with a small baby shower for the boys. I just love the Elrod family, so welcoming and making you feel special.
We went back to the lake for the fish fry. A childhood friend, Chuck Jurgensmeyer, moved back to the neighborhood. Him, his wife, granddaughter and his Mom, Beverly Jurgensmeyer came over. It was so good to see Bev. I was at their house a lot during my childhood. I ran around with her daughter, Janet. Sadly, Janet passed away a few years ago. Everyone had a good time and luckily, no rain!!
Sunday:
The day of the pig roast. Once again, no rain! Last year, it rained all three days.
April had Iva dressed real cute with a red, white and blue top and little shoes that matched.
Monday:
Dwayne went back over to the lake for cleanup day. I went to Beverly Jurgensmeyer's for a fish fry for her birthday. Several of the neighbors were there. It was a nice afternoon for visiting.
Didn't do much the rest of the day.
I am grateful we had a nice rain-free Memorial Weekend.
Dwayne and I went earlier in the week to put flowers on the graves of our loved ones. Always a bittersweet time.
