No Big Family Dinner Today

Another one of the 'best laid plans' scenarios.

The idea was to host a big family dinner so we could all be together and visit and catch up and the kids could play together.

We will host.  I will fix the meal.   Everyone just needs to be here.

First glitch - Megan has a meeting with Heidi and the bridesmaids in Zionsville.

Second glitch - Cooper went to Urgent Care about the cough he had had and was diagnosed with the flu even though he doesn't have a fever and even though he isn't vomiting and even though his strep test was negative. So no Matt and no Cooper and no Lynnlee.

Third glitch - no church because Blaine's back was killing him and Owen was clingy which was a good thing in a way because the food can go in the oven earlier and they can come over earlier for the meal.

Fourth glitch -  Landon has a wrestling workshop at Purdue this afternoon, which we already knew about.  Hilary and Blaine are taking him, and Owen and Tessa are staying here.

Then Karen called and she and Clay are stopping by this afternoon to visit.

Not exactly the way the day was planned, but what days are the way we plan? Not too many. 

The motto around here has to be "Go with the flow" because "the best laid plans" are sure to fall apart.
