Grillin' up some Pork


What a great Memorial Day Weekend! The weatherman was very good to us. Snuck out of the house on Friday night to see Star Wars Episode III and got in the groove on Saturday by watching Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back as I packed. From there, we took the rest of the weekend off. Sunday we spent at church, at Addison HS graduation ceremony (two kids from our youth group graduated, and then we had youth group Sunday night. Kim and I decided that since we had a bunch of stuff that we did not want to throw away nor did we want to take with us, we would hold an auction with the youth group by giving them all $1000 of Monopoly money to bid on the merchandise. The kids loved it, and I'm sure there parents loved all the new stuff that will help fill up their houses! Monday, we spent cleaning the apartment from the packing mess, getting ready for some old friends to stop by. Joel and Allie were in town, so we got Billy& Megan and JD and Joel's mom to come on over as well. We missed our friend Tony and took a group picture in front of the grill, which was to represent Tony (and yes it was a gas grill, but not sure what the implications of that are). We had a couple of excellent games of croquet and I grilled up potatoes and porkchops on the grill. We couldn't have asked for a better weekend Posted by Hello
