Our Saturday was spent with the Royuks and Pesters, and it was a very fine day. Brad and Beth did some surprise yardwork for their mom (I won’t spoil their telling of the story, though), then Harold and Beth did some yard work at their house, and then their Mom & Dad made a delicious dinner for all. Lloyd was around for these activities, but we made sure he kept his heart rate down. The most work we allowed him to do was push Tara on the swing, which he did well. All in all – a fine, fine day!

Surprise!!
First of all – Happy Birthday, Phil!!!! And to the Gebhardts, Happy Cinco de Mayo!Â
We heard from a little birdie that our gardener would be making a surprise visit! He’s here! We even cleaned his room! Brad’s here for his niece’s confirmation on Sunday and, of course, to check on our garden.Â
Lloyd fell asleep early, so he missed Brad’s arrival around 11 p.m.  Brad said, “Dang it. Oh, well, it’s for the best. I wanted to sneak in in the middle of the night and just be here when you woke up.” Yeah, that would have been funny, except for the part where I would have stabbed the stranger sneaking around our house in the night because I was afraid to wake up Lloyd and raise his heart rate. Yeah, would have been funny.
Welcome, Brad! Thanks for bringing the thunderstorms.
