Saturday Kate, Ty and I went "shopping outside". In other words, we walked around our neighborhood yard sale. Ty is now the proud owner of a pogo stick, Lord help me. Kate scored two new dresses for next spring and I enjoyed chatting with neighbors and friends. Afterward, Makenna and I hit my favorite consignment shop and we each came home with two new sweaters. We were living the bargain hunting dream. That evening, our sweet Colby stopped by with his family for dinner. We haven't seen them in six months and it was six months too long. We miss them immensely. The teens spent Saturday evening at a local festival and all returned with stories of good food and lots of laughter.

This morning Lauren was in a minor accident while driving Greg's truck. She hit a man on a motorcycle. Praise God there were no injuries. It was tough to come upon that scene and know all too well how vastly different the ending could have been. In the end, even the responding officer was joking around with all of us and the owner of the Harley gave Lauren a bracelet and a Christian tract about salvation since everyone involved was on their way to church. Lauren is wearing the bracelet proudly stating she is now in a motorcycle gang. I am just relieved that not only was no one hurt but that it was a Christian biker she hit! He looked rough to say the least but was beyond friendly about the incident.
This afternoon, Greg's parents joined us for a few hours and also stayed for dinner. Greg scored points across the board this weekend for incredible grilling skills. Our visit was pleasant as was the weather.
We ended the day at the park. It was the perfect way to release another perfect weekend.
