We had a busy weekend. Friends from Chattanooga came up Saturday and we grilled out, got c up to date with each other's lives since their move and played Settlers of Cataan. The boys got to play with their daughter and all had a good time.....well, until the kids got overtired but they still had fun.
Sunday seemed like football weather, rain, wind, cold. I called Mark Bell and asked him how we missed out camping in weather like this. We now have a running joke that anytime our two families plan on camping together, no matter how good the forecast is looking, the weather turns south in a hurry. So instead of camping the boys took mommy out for lunch for mother's day. Janelle got to talk to her parents in China and I spoke to my mother in east Tennessee.
Monday was adventure day. With the big earthquake in China we were on the phone trying to get through to family and friends over there to make sure everyone was okay. We are close to 3 couples over there including Janelle's parents. Her parents and the Cooks are both in the same city which is about 500 miles from the epicenter. They all came through okay. Will and Brittany are in another city and apparently had a nap interrupted but are none the worse for that.
Last night was the Macho Monday. 12 guys got together for dinner at Vittles, talked about manly things while the TV was on ESPN. We had a good time and it was fun catching up with everyone. With all of us married, most with kids, its hard to find time to just hang out and talk. We are going to try it again next month on a Turbo Tuesday and another Meat and 3.... no salad and muffin places for us! Have a great week.

It's was so great to visit with you all on Saturday! Hayley was asking all day on Sunday to play with Christopher and Jacob. Let us know when we want to get away from Nashville - you have a place to stay down the road!
You got the cold, damp weather on Sunday and we got super winds up to 50 miles an hour. It's amazing how weather can change drastically being two hours away!
I'm glad Janelle's parents are okay. I've been meaning to write an e-mail about it.
Oh, and glad you found me on Facebook! It's the internet's biggest waste of time (aside from blogging, of course!)
