Monday Madness

I have never been able to think of the day as one of mourning; I have never quite been able to feel that half-masted flags were appropriate on Decoration Day. I have rather felt that the flag should be at the peak, because those whose dying we commemorate rejoiced in seeing it where their valor placed it. We honor them in a joyous, thankful, triumphant commemoration of what they did. ~Benjamin Harrison

It didn't feel like Monday yesterday, it felt like Sunday. I went from Thursday thinking it was Friday, to Friday thinking it was Saturday and somehow made a shift to Monday thinking instead of being a day ahead we were a day behind.

We had a impromptu gathering of sorts yesterday. We started with just Jules, Bro and Ed and Evalee coming over and it just grew from there. Amy and Jason, Chuck and Char and Dave and Karen and of course, all their families in tow, joined us. We had ribs, chicken, cornhole, brownies, cupcakes, rugby, firepit, smores, pies and just a whole lot of fun! The kids had a ball because the Rook kids and Amy's boys were here. We really didn't have to do anything for them all day long. They were in their own little world.
