Game Called on accounta Rain

Didn't get a chance to work on the sprinklers after all. It rained most of the weekend; and what's the point of working on sprinkler's when it's already sprinkling?

We did manage to get into the pool ahead of the storm, though, and leave as things were starting to look a bit gray. Wasn't more than an hour or so before the rain started coming down in buckets, and the thunder roared, and the lightning flashed, and we sat in our nice, cozy little house and watched it all through the windows.

At some point - I forget when - we also managed to mosey over to the Library, where we took on a huge load of books. Plus a video or two. Kept the kids quiet for hours and hours after we got home.

Then on Sunday, we had the piano recital, where three of the kids (Adam, Deborah, Mary) played their pieces and then there was a reception and we ate cookies and drank punch (with sherbet ice cream in it) and went home to watch one of the movies. I can't remember which one. Hercules? or was it the Schoolhouse Rock video?

Man, my memory is getting bad.

Anyway, it was an exciting, action-packed weekend. Or not. At least there wasn't a lot of work going on. I got to catch up on some reading. And watch Schoolhouse Rock. And remember the 70s, fondly.

Hope your weekend was as much fun!
