Went to prayer before church, then church.  Great message and worship.  Kimmy called and said they were picking up pizzas (even Bill's kind with no cheese) and heading over to our house.  They got here and we were so happy to see them.  Two weeks seemed like an awful long time.  We got our extra big hugs.  They surprised us and brought us a huge cinnamon roll from the Hilltop.  Can't beat that!  YUM, I can't wait to eat it.  We ate pizza and sure were full afterwards.  Nobody even wanted ice cream or cookies.  Kenzie and Travis came and brought Kimmy's kitten she had watched.  We had a short, but fun visit with them.  Marie and Roy surprised us and stopped in, right when Kenzie was leaving.  They stayed a long time.  Roy sure enjoyed talking with Jared.  It started pouring while they were here.  It stopped and then Marie wanted to look at my new flower garden.  We went out on the deck and it started pouring again.  Marie waited under the gazebo, while I knocked on the sliding glass door so Kimmy would open it.  We both hurried in then.  It lasted a few minutes, then the sun came out.  Marie and Roy left then.  Kimmy, Jared and I walked around looking at the gardens and my flowers.  Everything is ginormous!  They helped pull weeds out of the raspberries which was appreciated.  They had to leave to go pick up their wedding rings which had been fixed.  I picked Hailey up and we went to Coco Loco's for dinner.  After that we went to Vikki's and Rody put a new screen protector on Hailey's phone for her.  Vikki, Peyton, Hailey and I went to Hopevale's Concert in the park.  At first they were playing Christian music, then the worship team came out and did an amazing job leading us in worship songs.  They had a table set up with small water bottles, popcorn, cute water bottles to take home, and sunglasses.  They also had some games set up for people to play, and they had a gaga ball game.  Evan and Jack loved playing that.  Peyton loved playing on the playground.  It was a beautiful evening by the water.  We stopped at Taco Bell and McDonalds on the way home.  Vikki, Hailey, Peyton and I got Frappe's buy one, get 1 free with Vikki's coupon and mine.  Such a fun night for all of us.  Jack made banana nut muffins, and gave Bill and I each one when I stopped at their house.  When Hailey was walking away to go to Ann's for a few minutes, I told her I would be gone when she got back.  She came right back and gave me a big hug.  Before Covid she wasn't a hugger and just gave a stiff hug when asked.  Now she gives great hugs, so that's one good thing that came from Covid. When I got home, Bill had me read over the funeral he worked on when we were gone.  The funeral is for a Vietnam veteran who passed away and his sister goes to our church.  He dad such a good job writing it up.  Very touching!  We talked to her and another sister at church in the morning.
