Is it really Monday again??

Saints be praised, the weekends go by quickly, don't they?!?!?
We had a great weekend, in spite of the hideous weather we had on Saturday.

As I mentioned before, we were having a BBQ/Pool Party on Saturday that ended up being a BBQ/"talk about the pool" party. :-)

From the time we woke up on Saturday morning, until about 7pm it was POURING.
That being said, Jim and I had the foresight (ok, it was Jim's idea) to set up one of those pop-up shelter thingys over the grill, so that I wouldn't have to deal with grilling in the rain. Talk about a life saver!!

All in all, it turned out to be a super-fun time. We had a great group of people over who managed to have a lot of fun being confined to the indoors, as opposed to being outside, enjoying the pool. Even the kids that were there managed to have a fun in spite of being stuck inside.

Yesterday was a very lazy day at home......which was nice for a change.

So here I am, back to work and getting ready for my meetings today at 10 and 11....I'm actually going to begin testing this morning on the system I've never even logged into.
Good times people, good times.

Here are just a few of the beauteous pictures that B took of our BBQ.
Jim and I never even took out the camera, so if it weren't for B, we'd have no 'proof' of the event. :-)



After she took this picture, I made a comment about the fact that every time she takes a picture of me, I've got my mouth open....so she took this one to make up for it...



I LOVE this picture.....that's Lara and Dave. Dave is Lara's brother-in-law, and in spite of the look she's giving him, she really likes him. Really.




Pretty People!!!!! (MB, Emilee, and John)

I have grilled dinner for six in a snow storm, cocktail in one hand, BBQ tongs, in the other standing under an umbrella held by one of my dinner guests! One of my best parties ever!

I think some of the best times is when the unexpected happens and everyone lives with it and makes the best of it. Seems this is what y'all did! When do I get my invite? :-)
