My brother Mark and his son came up for a visit and it was wonderful. Unfortunately, I don’t have a cool phone and didn’t get enough photos, so you’ll Just have to trust me.
They had hoped to camp out at the lake, spots with electrical were all taken. Thankfully, I have lots and lots of electricity!
They set up the world’s most awesome tent in my yard. I was in heaven living vicariously through all of Mark’s cool gadgets. It was so cool, and I was only a tiny bit jealous. 🙂
The first evening, we went out to Runza and then over to Concordia where they had food trucks for dinner and then a movie on the lawn. They played the live-action version of Aladdin, and it was wonderful.
The next day, I let Matthew take the toaster for a spin and then we went out to the lake to see if they were just yanking our chains regarding the spots. Sure enough, it was pretty full. No photos, though.
We went out to eat, then home for a fire. I love my fire pit, but we needed to gather around for conversation and s’mores-making. Portable fire pit to the rescue! (Lloyd said he is looking forward to getting a new wheelbarrow.)
On Sunday, we went to church and then let Matthew have a few more turns with the toaster. It was a pretty fun time all ‘round!
