Sigh. Ok, so, Sunday we leapt out of bed and rushed to pick up Grandma's corsage (ah, yes, that reminds me that Friday after Bre came home we headed out to Fair's nursery for vermiculite) at Fair's nursery. It was lovely. Then to pick the kids up, then off to Buffalo (Minnesota).
The day went pretty well, all things considered. Mom liked the flower and the necklace Bre picked up at the Swedish Institute (she did not seem as excited about the candy dish...). Bruce (older brother) was nice and had hands like Daddy's, big and work worn. His wife was very pleasent to talk to. One of his sons was there too, but he didn't talk much. Roger was there with his wife and kids, they did Blessed Assurance for mom...woah. Those boys have pretty voices!
Lots of people showed up, which was lovely for Delphi. One talked about when they were in some factory working in 1945!
The kids did ok, Eric only came to me whining about 5 times, most of that after 2 pm, which I consider pretty good. Laura was like the pied piper, leading Eric, the two cousins (Roger's kids) and another cousin, second cousin (they live not far from my house...damn...I was supposed to email them) all around the room. Every time she stopped, they sort of congealed around her.
Hmmm. Bob went running and I think he came in about 10 minutes ago, but he hasn't come upstairs. I am going down to check if he is alive...
