We went to the lake yesterday with Alex and Loreal. The weather was perfect! I think everyone should have a condo at the lake so they can go hang out with their kids. Sometimes it's the only way to get adult kids to hang out with their parents. (No one has plans to use the condo next weekend if someone wants to go up).
The weekend before we went up with Alika and David and David's friend. It was hotter than heck and David and his friend didn't wear sunscreen and got fried. Alika must have watched 10 movies!
We got the cement poured in the backyard. They poured it the days it was 103 degrees. Gosh it was awful for the workers. The kids were happy when it was done and have played ball and rode scooters on the pad. It took forever but I imagine it will be worth it.
We had Nate at the house for a couple of days while Stephanie recovered from her gall bladder surgery. I am not sure how much recovering you can do with a 16 month old kicking you in the stomach and running up and down the stairs. Steph finally decided her house was easier because she doesn't have stairs. Nate is a funny little baby. He doesn't talk (which is funny because he has a sound for everything) but he signs like Helen Keller. His favorite thing to sign is "eat". Don was carrying in some ice cream cake from his 50th birthday and Nate followed behind him making the "eat" sign. Steph, AJ and I took Nate and Sean to Carl's Junior and the minute we walk in the door Nate starts signing "eat". It's pretty cute. Sean on the other hand just yells "BITE!" They decided for sure that there is just one baby is Steph's big uterus. They can't tell yet if it's a boy or girl but Steph is thinking it's a girl.

Looks like they will be moving the first of September. Steph and Dan are going to move into Char's condo until Dan finishes school in May.
Grandma is going to be 82 on Friday. We're planning a family dinner on Sunday. (That make come as a surprise to some family members as we haven't told anyone our plans. We were hoping you would guess! Be there at 5 and bring a mum for mom. She needs fall flowers to plant on the porch.)
And that's our week!
