Today

Every year we need to take the kids to a tailgate. How fun! The kids had a great time and isn't that all that matters. Last year, we took them to the first-game-of-the-season tailgate. And it was soooo hot. We didn't stay long.

This year, homecoming tailgate, was perfect weather. Sunny, breezy and about 60 degrees. My sister outdid herself, again. I think she really loves being the hostess! She had a little wings hiccup but we rescued her with wings from the local grocery store. There were meatballs and pigs in a blanket and chips and cookies.

Her friends were great with the kids. Playing a beanbag toss game with them. And just being nice. Talking with them and tickling them. I wish I would have got a picture. But, I figure I am doing good just to get us there.

We ate and played and left just at the right time. Nap time and other plans. Little Mama had an invitation to a club. And it isn't very often just she gets an invitation.

One of these days we would love to take the kids to a game. But, for as much as they want for tickets, it is going to be a long time before all six of us will be able to do that. In the meantime, we will enjoy the yearly invitations to the tailgates from Sissy . . .

How fun! And no great surprise that "Sissy" is a great hostess. Must be in her genes . . . Maybe she got some pictures to post. We'd love to see!
