Awake: 7:28am Temp 65 sleep 7+14 mostly sunny overnight @ Nicktown.
This morning, we had a call from Nick letting us know that he & Zack would be attending our Koffee Klub today. Great! Unfortunately, due to a recent funeral for a popular Nicktown person, many of our Koffee Klub members were absent; but I hope Nick & Zack enjoyed the idea of meeting (6) times a week to start out our day.
Afterward, we gave them a tour of our workout center & the 3/4 gym for the school children &, of course, our social room.
Next, they joined us in our motorhome & before too long, Nick was showing Kathy a few new things on her Apple computer while Zack was helping me install an outside Hitachi storage Disk, which I bought a few months ago. Gosh it was nice having these (2) computer gurus helping us straighten out some of our glitches.
Then it was time for them to leave & return to the Foote Castle....and we will meet up with all of them @ a place Melissa calls: "The Big Sand Box" on the IUP campus.
We arrived @ the meeting place around 1:15pm & found all were there except the Footes. However it wasn't long before we saw Kevin riding his bike & the rest of the Foote family walking to the meeting place. Melissa wasted no time in getting her homemade slices of pizza out, & Kathy exposed our grapes & cherries.
We sat in the shade & watched the children run & play while we did some more gabbing. Eriko & Momoko won the grand prize for the best smile & wearing the best Hollywood outfit of the bunch.
Kathy was the runner up as popularity winner because she had the children all gathered around her, letting Nathan & Andrew take turns removing & replacing her earrings & the rest of them watching.
You have to look closely at the 1st photo to see Kathy surrounded with the boys.
We did spend some time @ the Big Sand Box ....but there was little shade & it was a very hot day.
Our next move was to try & keep our cool as much as possible by walking about (10) min & having some very good ice cream @ the....forgot the name? After that tasty treat, K & I drove a short distance to buy some wine for tonight while the rest of the gang walked slowly back to the Foote Castle. Back @ the Castle, Nick found an empty rocking chair & spent some quality time with his young daughter.
Meanwhile, Nathan opened his birthday gifts from the Foote grandparents & got right with the program of making green worms using his new Play Doh.
Later, one by one, the Foote boys took their showers & then Eriko followed with Momoko. Still later, Nick followed & showered with Jerry. Once the Foote boys were in their pajamas, Katrina read them a good book before bedtime.
Then only Jerry & Momoko were downstairs, so we spent some time with them as well as continuing our gab session with our adult kids until Kevin & Katrina got ready to do the evening run with Kinley. That was our cue to leave.
It was another fun day & tomorrow we will meet again.
Lights out: 11:51pm.
