Weekend activities

This past week Sue and Walt went to Rome with some friends. They left on Thursday and are returning tomorrow evening (it was a quick trip) We gladly volunteered to watch over Jack and Charlotte while they were gone. It was a pretty easy job. We just had to check in every school day morning to make sure that they were up and getting ready. We also provided an occasional ride for Charlotte but they pretty much took care of themselves. Bud did get Jack to come over and help him move firewood on Sunday afternoon. Bud had hoped to burn the wood that was cut down to build our garage but he found out that it was not dry enough so they had to move it back over to the drying area and we will order some dry wood to burn this winter.

We were also the source of evening meals this weekend. Friday night we took Jack out to dinner. Saturday night it was Charlotte and we spent the night over there because Jack was with friends. Sunday night we ordered out sandwiches and pizza.

We enjoyed our time with Charlotte and Jack and were glad to help out with the little bit that they needed us. It is nice to be needed. Maybe someday we will need them to help us out too.
I hope that if they do help us out someday, we will be as good and as easy to take care of as they were. We can't promise that we won't sneak out or try to have a party when they are not around though.
