Babysitting

Our contractor came Friday and the plan is to start our bathroom remodel around Thursday. Lots of stuff to clear out by then. On Saturday we went to Megan and Greg's and got to babysit with Oz for the evening. We hung out there today till around 5:00. Jon did some electrical work, and we enjoyed some quality Grandpa and Grandma time! Will download some pics and post later this week (I hope :))
We're both finally feeling mostly better and just in time. Lots of work to do this week!
In other good news....Kelli had another open house today and it was the most well-attended one yet. The people are coming out of their winter hibernation and starting to look at houses again! YAY!!!
Hope you all have a great week!!!

Open House

Another day...this one was our annual NFS open house complete with the Pancake Man (always good pancakes and excellent sausage). We served almost 600 people between 10:30 and 2:00...including the 80-100 FFA kids who come to help pour drinks, clear tables, and replace empty syrup bottles. I'm in the kitchen most of the time making coffee, koolaid, cutting butter, and filling syrup bottles, but I did get to see and talk to a few people. Tomorrow we'll all be back to the normal routine just in time for the end of the month.

Thought for the day

I don't have many thoughts today...certainly nothing too profound. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly we can go from "enlightenment" and "revelation" to almost no thought process at all. I suppose that is part of just being human...we mentally check out sometimes. It does make me wonder how God sees that. Does He allow for and expect these "mental breaks" or would He have us constantly engaged and actively seeking at ALL times? I will have to ponder.....What do you think?
