It's Been a Good Morning!

I slept for 10 hours last night!

Can you tell I needed some serious sleep?  I went to bed before 10, read a little bit but my eyes were heavy so I had to stop.  I fell asleep immeidately, I don't remember Gary coming to bed, and I was up a couple of times for the bathroom, but I returned to sleep.

My alarm rang at 7 so I would shower and be ready for Zoom with Megan the Trainer, but I shut it off and returned to sleep.  When I finally woke up, it was 9.  Really? 

After I showered and dressed, I came downstairs to find Blaine cooking breakfast on the griddle grill on the deck.  Landon was making pancakes on the griddle on the stove.  Gary was cracking eggs into the bowl to whisk for scrambled eggs.

Hilary and the kids came in about 15 minutes later since they had been to Lauren's house to wish her a Happy Birthday.

Blaine, Hilary, Landon, Tessa, and Gary sat at the table to eat while Owen and I were at the island.  At some point Landon decided we needed more pancakes so he mixed up more batter.

After everyone had finished eating, Hilary, Blaine, and Tessa and Owen left for some errands in town.  Landon and Gary went to the Party Barn to retrieve the mowers and start in on the yard.  Landon bought a mower for himself so he can help out with the mowing here.  What a kid!

Gary took all of the placemats to the laundry room to toss in the washer (and forgot to close the lid so you know what happened there...nothing! )  After I shooed everyone out, I cleaned up the kitchen.  The dishwashers is running.  The griddle, large pots and skillets are clean and put away, and the table and the islands are cleaned off.  The floor is swept.

What a great surprise for the morning!  The food was great.  Family time is special.  And I love it that everyone feels so comfortable doing this.

We called Aunt Greta to tell her Happy Birthday.

Later Megan, Matt, and the kids are arriving so Cooper and Lynnlee can spend the day and overnight with us while Megan and the other bridesmaids have a COVID-19 style Bachelorette Party for Heidi at her house.

Life is good.

It will be a fun day.

It's been a fun morning so far, so what can follow except a great day!
