The last week has been really special. It's not Thanksgiving or Christmas, and we've seen all our daughters and son-in-law and grandkids. And we weren't at our house and I didn't have to cook.
It was so good to see Jesse. We hadn't seen him since he left to go to Basic Training last fall. He looks great, and even put on a fashion show for us. He modeled his whites and was very patient while we all made fools of ourselves taking pictures. Kate and Wayne were there, and we got to see lots of Bobby's family, too. He'll have to leave early in the morning to report back for duty.
The food was great and in amazing amounts. Bobby is a wonderful cook, and he fixed fried catfish and crappie. They're the best! But there were also hamburgers, brats, pinto beans, corn, cornbread, different kinds of slaw, chips, chili con queso - and I couldn't even begin to talk about the desserts.
Our trip home was quite easy this time. The truckers must have all taken time off for the holiday - there were very few on the interstate.
It's still hot, with no rain. They are predicting rain for the end of the week, but I'll believe it when I see it.
Today's picture is of Margaret and Jesse.
