Autumn Weekend
Some weekends are dutiful in keeping house inside and out and other weekends are packed with play... 
The boys played a big game Friday after school. The play-offs start today!Saturday afternoon split in different directions of birthday parties and riding. Then we went to a really fun hayride with church friends. 
Bunches of kids loaded into the plough and so the moms climbed in the back. We were hootin' and hollarin' as the O-So-Kind tractor guy lurched us back and away up the hill. All the kids slid to the back squashing us with laughter. About half-way into the mount I lost touch in my legs that were folded under me.just can't sit that way for very long! 
I scarcely kept wondering why the hay was so strong?? It was a storm to sit under the barn loft and make hay come raining down on us as we passed underneath! 
We roasted hot dogs by a hot fire and sang songs; so wholesome and fun! The better part was that everyone loved it, from toddlers to teens. The stars were bright and the evening lovely.Sunday we went to a friends Eagle Scout ceremony that was incredible! My son played the soft and another buddy sang. It was a marvelous thing to behold! Our state senator, county executive, sheriff, and county council president all awarded Caleb with certificates and commemorative coins and pins. The neatest part was his grandfather, an Eagle Scout, pinned him with his pin from 1938! Only 4% of the guys have it to this rank! Way to go Caleb! 
I know this kid! I had the chance to lead a work a few days ago and he was one of the principal characters. My girl has license to tie him! 
It was a perfect weekend barring my little guy getting the stomach flu. But yet in that we are fearfully and wonderfully made to get rid of yucky viruses!Blessings,E.W.
