Busy Weekend

Christy asked if I would take Anthony for Saturday so Chris and her could have
a fun date day. Then the Childs called and they were coming in on Saturday and wanted me to invite our old "scum" buddies over to play cards and have dinner.
So we had Anthony come spend the night on Friday and we took him home on Saturday night before friends arrived.

ANTHONY totally broke our records of the game of Hand and Foot. Bob and I love that game and play often. It is more fun with more people but can do it with two just fine. So I keep record of how many "seven of a kind" we get and our highest points.
Anthony got FOUR seven of a kind in ONE round and then got one more in another round. So the total of FIVE for one game is the new record!!! That of course got him the highest points scored and Bob is bummed since it is his record that was beat. FYI I have the record of the lowest points scored!!! Hey, someone has to lose...

So, about 30 minutes before we were to take Anthony home and the Childs to get here, we got a call from Bob's good friend he grew up with in Vallejo (Gary and Kim Rhodes). His wife's sister lives close to us. So they popped in for about 30 minutes for a short visit. They are here for a week so we hope to see them again.

So our "scum buddies" were few in numbers...Only the Smiths we able to make it. But we still had a good time and a great visit. I made some minestrone soup and salad and Deanne Smith brought a dessert. We ended up teaching the Smiths Golf, the card game. We had fun playing a new game. For the first time I won! Bob ALWAYS does well playing this game.

So, Childs left Tuesday morning, they visited family and friends and went through their home for the last time...they have two "short-sale" offers that should go through. I will settle down now and get some sewing done.
