Friday, 5/22/26, Vikki and Kimmy came, went to an estate sale, Melissa and Hailey came over, Bruce brought Jack and Evan over, Jack Weedwacked for Bill, nice talk with Evan, picked up Culver’s, made banana splits for dessert

My fish pond was emptied the top level today again.  I filled it back up. All of the fish were still there.  We did find 3 white fluffy feathers nearby so thinking geese did it twice now and got one of my fish 
Hailey got out of work at 11:30 today and came to spend the day with us

Bill on the tractor showing Jack where to trim

I got up early so I would be ready when Kimmy and Vikki got here.  Got the main floor vacuumed since Bill can’t wipe his shoes off very good when he came in from outside right now.  My Dyson does a great job and is fast and easy.  Kimmy and Vikki got here around 9.  Vikki had picked up an everything bagel with cream cheese so she split that with me.  It was so good.  I made fruit salad with strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, pineapple and bananas.  After that I went in with them to drink my coffee and eat my half bagel.  I texted Melissa to see when she was coming.  She was going to come then, but decided to wait until after we went to an estate sale.  This was the last day and everything was 76% off.  Kimmy found stuff and got it all for $2, Vikki found stuff including a metal clothes pole and got everything for $6, I found a pointed opener for tomato juice cans etc. and a cute small brush to brush crumbs off the crack that goes around close to the edge of my tables and got everything for 25 cents.  The opener was still in the package.  It was getting close to 1 so we headed to Panera and Vikki got a large lemonade and I got a large diet coke for Melissa.  She got there when we got back.  Vikki split her lemonade with everyone and added strawberries.  

We ate potato salad, and fruit salad for lunch.  Hailey wanted Spaghetti O’s.  No one wanted anything else.  Some of us had blueberry muffins and others had Bel Vita snacks later.  We had a nice time enjoying each other’s company.  When Jack and Evan got out of school, Bruce brought them over so Jack could use our edger and do the edging for Bill.  Bill drove the tractor so he could show him what needed to be done.   Jack did a great job!  Evan visited with us.  When Jack came in he was happy to see Blueberry muffins and told me really likes them.  Nobody wanted anything to eat, but I did get chips, dip and Oreo’s out so they snacked on stuff.  Hailey went home with Bruce so she could make homemade pizza tonight.  I sent pepperoni home with her because they didn’t have any to use.  

We talked with Jack for a while.  Then he put his headphones in.  Then we talked with Evan for a long time.  He is getting very wise and trying to put God first in everything.  He is known for being kind at school and was telling us about some examples where he was able to help a couple of kids who were choosing not to be kind or choosing to use bad language and because he was kind and because he didn’t use bad language they both talked to him and wanted to change.  I am so proud of him.  

Vikki, Ava, and Peyton left to go pick up Rehvyn.  Kimmy left soon after.  She is going on a date with Jared tonight.  Adam is working and Eli is in Florida.  Melissa and the boys left around 6:30 to get home and eat some of the pizza Hailey made.  I picked up burgers and fries at Culver's for Bill and I and brought it home for us to eat.  I didn’t want him overdoing since he did enough today with his back.  We ate, then later had hot fudge banana ice cream dessert.  Yum!  That was our stay at home date.  

I worked on my blog.  I got sleepy and fell asleep, so will have to finish tomorrow.  It sure was a fun day.  I sure do love my family.
