It was a great game!

Bill went to have coffee with Charlie.  I did some laundry, defrosted the other freezer in the basement, picked up some sticks in the yard.  There were lots of them because we had a storm last night and high winds.  Bird feeder stand with all the feeders fell over in the storm.  Filled feeders and rehung them, filled oriole feeders too.  Took the cover off the pool and then got in and skimmed the stuff that fell in because of the storm.  Vikki and the kids got here, then Kimmy and the boys came right after.  Peyton and Isaac started picking up the sticks in the yard.  Jacob, Adam and Eli helped when they got here.  Kimmy and Vikki helped too.  Then we all went swimming to cool down.  Bill mowed the lawn while we swam.  We stayed in quite a while and sure enjoyed the cool down.  Kimmy and I picked the corn afterwards and got two bushels.  All the kids, Vikki, Kimmy and I shucked it.  We came in and ate lunch.  After that Vikki cooked the corn, Kimmy and I cut it off the cob and bagged it for the freezer.  We all ate corn afterward.  The kids had fun playing games in the basement. Vikki and the kids left, then Kimmy and Eli left.  Jacob and Adam are spending the night.  We all went to Tony's and ate dinner, then got dessert.  We were stuffed afterward.  Bill showed them where Wes and Gayla live and where Chuck and Sue live.  They played 3 games of Air Hockey, and some Mario Cart.  We all played 3-13 and I was the winner.  It was a very good game.  The boys were going to go swimming, but it was raining, then started lightening out.  They decided to wait and watch a movie.
