Weekend Fun

We had a great weekend!
Jackson got to spend Friday at Nanny's house with his cousin Joshua.
They visited Granny, helped pick out stuff for Operation Christmas, had lunch and milkshakes at Andy's, and then played:Lego's, Army, lots of good boy fun!
Thanks Nanny!
The rest of us stayed home and did school and cleaned the house.
 
BUT
 
Friday afternoon we all had big plans!
Andrew had basketball practice and then went and hung out with some friends, had pizza, and watched Avengers!  Today he got to go with Aunt Stacy to the Duke men's basketball game.  So he had lots of fun!
 
Lydia went to Pizza Inn with Trisha Lynn last night and got to have a sleepover.  Then today they got to go to the pumpkin patch.  She had a fantastic time having lots of one-on-one time with her cousin.
She came home tired!
Thanks Aunt Rhonda and Uncle Barry!
 
Jackson, Audrey, and Sophie each had a friend over for a sleepover last night so we had a full house!
They played outside most of the time and some of our sweet neighbors came over to play too.
It was a really good weekend.
 
However the highlight of the weekend was getting Randy's car in shape!
His back doors don't open from the outside and one of them doesn't open from the inside.  Randy spent about 30 minutes with a clothes hanger fiddling with it and he finally got it open!
YEAH!

 
So it still doesn't open from the outside but at least it opens from the inside!!!!
 
Then our buddy Chris came over.....he knows a lot about cars....and he had said last week when we were at the beach together he would be happy to come over and help us fix some things.
 
 
What a friend!
 

 
He even came bearing gifts!
 
Randy now has his very own rubber band!
 
This car has been a great car.
There were just a few aesthetic issues...

 
The paint.....which we had already fixed...and the hole in the headliner.
 
Chris said it was an easy fix.
 
 
We had been putting it off because it was going to cost several hundred dollars.
 
 
 
He told us what we needed to buy
and then he came over and showed us what to do!
 
 
Ta-Da!!!
 
 
No more hole!
 
He even looked under the hood and gave us a few ideas to keep her running!
 
 
So thankful for such wonderful friendships!
 
Thanks Chris for sharing your Saturday with us!
 
You guys are the BEST!
