My sister, Brenda, sent me a picture of their dock today.  When we were up there a few months ago, the lake was covered with ice and they were ice fishing.  Time sure flies.
 

The boys were up early here this morning.  They went outside to play and also played some ping pong.  I made them scrambled eggs, bacon and toast for breakfast.  They were pretty happy about that.  Bill went to have coffee with Charlie.  I sat outside to read my Bible because it was so nice out and in the 60's.  Vikki, Peyton, Isaac and Evan got here first.  Kimmy and Jacob came shortly after that.  Melissa couldn't come til later.  Bill decided to take the kids all to see the Super Mario Brothers Movie.  Kimmy started working on my new flower garden, so I got a shovel and went to help her when she wouldn't quit like I asked her.  Vikki and I wanted her to just relax and enjoy her time here.  She is fast and a very hard worker.  We all three sat on the deck and visited afterwards.  Bill and the kids got home.  None of the kids would say anything about the movie when they came outside by us.  Bill had told them not to.  It didn't last long though, and Jacob told us he loved the movie.  Then all the other kids said the same thing and started telling some things about it.  

The younger kids picked up all the sticks in the yard (there were lots) and Jacob, Eli and Jack helped put tables and chairs, the gas fire pit, and glider chairs on the decks.  They were such great helpers.  Eli and Jack helped pick up sticks with Evan, Peyton, Isaac after that.  Kimmy went to supervise and ended up helping.  Thank you kids and Kimmy.  Great job!

Melissa got here.  She had to have Evan home so Bruce could take him to his piano lesson at 4:30.  We girls started a game of Sky Jo and Melissa played until she had to leave.  After she left, we finished the game with just the 3 of us.  I was the winner today.  We enjoyed our time together and had a fun day hanging out.  Kimmy, Bill and I cleaned up the banana cream pudding dessert.  YUM!  Eli sent me a sweet text before he went to bed.  So thankful for my family and love them so much.
