Together Again

Well, now we are all home again.  The girls from choir tour, and Brian and I from Oregon.  We found the boys still alive and full of pizza.  Besides pizza eating they also bowled, played lots of video games, watched movies and ate ice cream.  When Matt worked, Thomas visited my sister’s family.  He helped with the house, held the baby, played with the kids, and still had time to finish the entire Peanuts treasury.  We all had fun exchanging presents.  The girls had shopped at a rubber ducky store and bought me ducky soap and Brian an Elvis duck.  They also bought him a shot glass (no, he doesn’t drink, ha ha) that says “Old Guys Rock.”  They got the boys rock candy and magnet rocks.  We got Matt, Miriam, and Jonathan brass lighthouse key chains.  Matt and Jon also got Oregon coast playing cards.  We liked them because they don’t have the traditional King, Queen, etc. faces.  And Miriam and Katrina each got a wool mini Kleenex dispenser from Pendleton, OR.  Katrina who collects turtles got a tiny stone turtle and Thomas who collects stone eggs got an unusual one.  Also, when He was little, he would call school buses “cheese bus” because they were the color of cheese.  Well, at the Tillamook factory, they displayed a mini VW bus the color of cheese that tours the country promoting cheese love so we bought him a toy one at the gift shop and now he has his own cheese bus.  Now Brian is back to the old grind at work and we are eaking the most enjoyment out of our summer that we possibly can.
