Holy Saturday fun
We could have slept later, but the telephone alarm woke us. Evelyn dressed and went into the house but I stayed outside to send some Easter cards via email. I went in around 9:30 but no one was up then. When the gang arose, the girls made scrambled eggs. Noah had to go to see the goat he will show in the 4-H fair next fall, so they made us a sandwich to take. What a problem! When we reached the farm we ate them with the innards falling onto the plates. I will have to tell them how to make an egg sandwich. Noah held, petted and familiarized the goat with him to calm him when the showing takes place. It will take a couple of months of working with the goat. We then met Emily and the rest save Pieder at the college where the kids take music lessons. They each get half an hour, but Noah wanted to stay and practice his steel drums some more because he has a recital in May. Andrew plays guitar, Rosalie sings, Stephen plays drums, and Elizabeth piano. We then went to the Y to work out, walk, and shoot baskets. I thought they wanted to swim but there were no takers. Andrew finally got into a game of sorts while the kids and I hit some racquetballs around. We were home around 2 and ate snacks left from yesterday. Most of us worked for a few hours in the afternoon, and the girls made lasagna for supper. Pieder has a true infatuation with tequila, so I tried some. I don’t like the stuff. We had a good time and then cleaned up before the ladies dressed in their new outfits and led us in square dancing. Noah is the best in the bunch but gets discouraged with the rest of us. The caller on their CD calls too quickly for us, and we don’t quite understand the calls. We were a spectacle to behold. Evelyn and the kids started making the dinner for tomorrow. She wants to make pineapple fluff like her Aunt Vera used to make for their family reunions. We will also have ham and some potato dish. We took showers tonight to avoid the congestion that could occur in the morning as we ready ourselves for the celebration of the Resurrection of our Lord.
