CRAZY. WEEK!

The craziness all started last Friday when the family chose to leave town to to another state to see family. We arrived at the grandparent's house shortly before midnight and immediately began to get ready for bed. Dad was using the restroom when he got a most unusual request from Mom. She asked him if he would got to the chicken coop to kill an opossum for grandmother. After shooting and hitting it three of five times, the opossum still was not dead. Grandmother put it on a burn fire and and it squirmed. They put it in a barrell and, as per word of uncle, it had to be shot again the next morning. This only began the craziness!

The next day, Dad left town to go see his dad and the family goofed off. I got to watch my baby cousin and the women went shopping. Dad came back and most of the family are dinner together. We played cards most of the day and part of the evening. Then, we got ready for bed.

Dad preached and taught class the next day. Bubba preached in the afternoon. He did a real good job. Bubba went driving with Papaw two times on the farm. He had a good time. Dad and Bubba took off for home while Mom and I stayed. The family went out for pizza. Dad and Bubba went to Lambert's and got a roll or two thrown at them. My little cousin stayed with me and we played slap jack and had a good time. The next day, Dad went to work, Bubba stayed home, and Mom and I and others went shopping. Yes, Mom went shopping two days in a row! The family went out for Chinese food. 

Tuesday, we I got to play with my little cousin all day. I am a little tired of playing with him but we had a good time. Mom and I met Dad so we could come home. Bubba stayed at a friend's house. The next day, Mom took off for a conference in another city and Bubba was still at his friend's house until late in the evening. Dad and I got to spend some time together and went to Bible class that evening. 

Thursday, Bubba and I did chores around the house while Dad worked. We ate dinner and then played Skip-Bo and I won. Yea, me! We enjoyed the time together. I was ready for Mom to come home because I was the inky girl. 

Friday, Bubba and I did more chores and we got to go with the youth group to an origins seminar in another city. We had a good time and Mom came home that evening. I was so happy. Bubba was happy. Dad was happy. We were a happy family. 

Saturday, Dad went to work and got ready to teach on Sunday. Mom and Bubba went shopping (yes, again!). I had the house to myself and I loved it. JT and I want back to the seminar with the youth group. JT liked it so much that he and his friend asked Mom to take them back today and so they are worshipping there and Dad and I are here.

We are ready for spring break to be over so we can be together again!
