How fun to picture it...packed with tourists this time...and all eating double-yolkers!<br /><br />I'm wondering...why do you take two vehicles to church? I'm sure there is a good reason you can't go together (He goes early to teach Sunday School...or you go early to make coffee...etc.). Just curious! <br /><br />We laboured on Labour Day...worked our way to the top of Mt. Cheam.

And I know those grandbabies enjoyed your spoiling despite the disappointment of rain. We labored for Labor Day ... lots and lots of yard work before the yellow jackets decided to attack. I was satisfied with what all we accomplished before running for cover. My kiddos would be jealous of your rain.<br /><br />Have a wonderful Tuesday!!<br /><br />Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14645900268226972218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-91427697409335646252013-09-03T09:18:05.241-04:002013-09-03T09:18:05.241-04:00We did nothing for Labor Day, well, except for Tim...We did nothing for Labor Day, well, except for Tim.

I've missed my favorite blogging buddies and dear friends - and like you say - not so much the actual blogging. I'm having a bit more time to myself at home these days what with Lisa working now. I pray that she feels this good for a long, long time. The Lord has sheltered her from some of the effects of the chemo and she truly feels good right now, just a bit tired.<br /><br />Sounds like y'all had a good outing on Sunday. Guess I'll have to have a banana split soon - it's been ages since I've had one, too, so can I blame John if I get one? If he can have one, then so can I! Have a great week - sorry it rained on your grands today!

And visiting 3 flea markets? That sounds like a perfect Sunday afternoon to me. It's been raining hard here all day too and windy and cool. I loved McIntosh Toffee as a kid but after losing fillings from chewing it I gave up and stopped buying it many many years ago. I didn't even know we could still buy it here! Lucky you. It is really good stuff. Just watch your fillings! :)Pamela Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071092617682650349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-48062472237814091392013-09-02T20:35:12.534-04:002013-09-02T20:35:12.534-04:00Sounds like you had a great last weekend of summer...Sounds like you had a great last weekend of summer.
