FRIDAY
We played Scattergories and watched the Cardinals beat the Phillies.
SATURDAY
First we got into a car accident when a big ol' truck couldn't see us over his big ol' truck. That put a bit of a damper on our fun and has convinced me even more that big cars such be ousted.
After getting a police report we headed over to a haunted village. We paid our respects at a tiny graveyard where most of the people had died November 22, 1776. We assumed it was in a revolutionary war battle. And there was one very close by November 16th according to a Google search. No hands reached from the ground to grip at my ankles, so I doubt there were really bodies there. We continued on down a trail and found 'surprise lake', the name leading you to believe it's a hidden beauty. Then you see it and Surprise! It's just a scummy old lake! Next we went in search of a horse stable, but got lost. We tried to track the horse hoof prints but our tracking skills were poor to extremely poor. Luckily on our way back to civilization some horse ladies came trotting at us so we got to see them after all. I sure would like a horse! Next we found our way to a pasture or playground area where we picnicked. A bee fell in love with Michelle and I think she fell a little in love with it. Finally back to the car. We never did see the haunted village. I must say that I'm a bit dubious that it really exists.
That night we had blackened grouper (that Cynthia had to order special for us!) and yellow squash and asparagus from the grill and sipped on fancy wine spritzers with strawberries. Yum yum! We played Cranium - A first for me and very fun, I must say! It's all sorts of games rolled into one: Pictionary, Charades, Trivia and MORE. (So for my birthday Apples to Apples and Cranium are on the list!) Then a episode of Project Runway and to bed I went.SUNDAY
Sunday was just beautiful out. We laid around the house and watched Free Willy (this time I didn't cry) and some Arrested Developments. Then we went to a park and laid under a tree and read and napped and Michelle tried to learn to knit. We went across the street and got ice cream then raced home to catch the train.

Glad you had such a pretty weekend, but sorry about the car wreck. I'm just glad you are all ok.
That was really nice of Cynthia to provide the grouper for you guys!
I forgot to say how cute all of you were in your pictures.
I need to have some quality Free Willy time in the near future.
You're lucky you're a girl. If a boy had made that comment I'd have to flag it as pervy.
