The weekend started off with a bang. We were able to have dinner with the Hogue family at Mellow Mushroom Friday evening and then Delainey became a part of their family for a few hours. She was lucky enough to go to the PlayhouseDisney show with the Hogue's and she had a blast. We heard all about the Little Einstein's, Handy Manny, Pooh and Tigger, and Mickey of course.
Saturday was a VERY busy day for everyone, except Laura who still has a bad cold and needed the downtime to rest. Stephen helped with the first annual Jack D. Oliver, Sr. Memorial Blood Drive and it was a great success. The goal was to have 35 pints of blood collected and we surpassed that and collected 39 pints. Dad would have been so proud and honored that so many people turned out. Jack, Jr. even donated for the first time! Delainey had a busy morning of getting her soccer pictures taken and then playing in her second game. She said she didn't have as much fun this time because the other kids wouldn't share the ball with her during the game. I guess we need to have a little talk about competition.
Sunday morning we had a little downtime and got a little rest. Then, we did some cleaning of the house and all went about enjoying the afternoon in different ways. Laura had to do the real estate thing and had some good success. Stephen and Delainey went out to the lake to ride in Niki and Jack's new boat. Delainey was so excited because Uncle Bubba let her drive the boat and honk the horn. One of the highlights of the trip was watching a Bald Eagle fly low across the lake and grab a fish or snake and soar over top of the boat. What a thrill!
We are getting closer and closer to April 7th and the big day. Laura feels like she could burst at any moment!
