Today Maggie and Anna are in the hospital. But don't worry, they are there for the Safesitter's Class! Sarah took this class when she was 12, and for the past few years we've been trying to get Maggie and Anna into this class but it never fit our schedule. Finally! They will be the oldest in the class but that doesn't bother them. They will be learning the basics of babysitting, the basics of CPR and the Heimlich maneuver. I hope they enjoy their time there as well as learn a lot. Class is for two Saturdays, 9-3.

Grandma and Grandpa, as well as Glenn and his family, came for dinner last night. We put the two 8-ft tables end to end and everyone was able to sit comfortably. Grandpa commented on barely being able to see the other end of the table so I told him we'd just call him on his cell phone when we needed him to pass the food. I sure love Grandpa. Such an easy person to talk to. Just make sure to have a glass of coke and a bowl of pistachios!

Today is the big day for Mike. His Barbershop Chorus has their 8th annual Concert today. (This is an old picture and horrible. Will update tomorrow with another picture.) There is a 2 o'clock matinee and a 8 o'clock evening concert. We are going to the evening concert. First we are meeting all the family at Starr's Hunan Restaurant there in LaPlata (14 of us), then we will all go to the concert together. Can hardly wait! Mike stayed up late sewing his costume. He needed one after all, but didn't want to be bested by his director who sewed his own costume. Suits me!

We're expecting a big storm this evening. Lots of rain and wind, so I'm constantly praying little prayers for safety for everyone.

Many blessings ~ Kathie
