Happy Labor Day Weekend

Happy Labor Day weekend, I hope everyone is enjoying themselves. We are, we had a nice relaxing day today.
Yesterday, we had a big fish fry. All the boys were in from working and we invited all the brothers and sisters and some friends. Royce spent over a week catching fish at his son's pond on his property. He caught tons and many big ones as well. We had brim, catfish, and bass. Anyway, we had a head count of about 32 people. The finished garage we have was packed to the brim. We had tons of fish, fries, and hush puppies. Everyone brought a dish and we had a bunch of food. We also celebrated Sherry Damron's (daughter in law) birthday. We gave her a card shower and had a nice big cake. She was surprised and very pleased.
Two weeks ago we had another cook out with burgers and dogs and all the trimmings. This was Royces 65Th birthday celebration. He wasn't surprised as he knew we were having it. But he received gift cards from the kids for Lowe's for his next project. Also a really nice book to read. We had a great time. He enjoyed having all the kids home under one roof at one time, which is very rare.
I'm not sure what his next big project will be. He's looking into smaller wood projects for Christmas gifts. We are also looking at making some funny scary things for the yard for Halloween. I will post pictures if we actually build and display anything.
I don't know about all of you but I'm looking so forward to fall. I'm so tired of the very hot weather. I'm ready for a change and very anxious to decorate. Making plans already for October thru December. You know me, I'm always ready to celebrate the holidays in a big way.
Some of the gals that I scrap book with and I are planning a Kroptober fest in October. We've set the date and I'm making plans for favors and etc. We will simply scrap all day and have a great time. That usually sets off the Christmas card making.
I have many plans already for fall and Halloween cards along with the Christmas cards. I so enjoy making them and getting them all done...
That's all the news for now, be blessed everyone and enjoy the upcoming season changes.
God Bless!
