picture of 'THOMAS'
with Nathan and
Mark on Saturday.

Weekend activities... May 27 - 29
Saturday morning I went with Mark and Andrea to have pictures
taken of Baby Ben at the Belden Village Mall at a new studio
"Sadie's". The studio is very new, but they did get some cute
pictures of Ben...
Then we traveled to Richfield to get a picture of Nathan with
'THOMAS', we were unable to do that the week before, there
were so many people in line waiting. Since that was the last
weekend Thomas was going to be there it was our last chance
to get the picture.
Saturday evening Dale and I had dinner with Wanda and
Dick Perry along with another couple from our church
(Joyce and Wes). Wanda prepared a great meal of chicken,
noodles, potato wedges, salad and rolls. We had dessert later
as we visited on their deck. Very beautiful evening to sit outdoors.
Sunday: attended Sunday School, church and evening service.
We had a good choir practise after the service. Then Dale and I
had a late dinner at Bob Evans.
Lazy day at home for Memorial Day and back to work on Tuesday.
I worked from 6:00 to 2:30 pm and Dale worked late hours. We met
up at the Wads. Bob Evans for supper, along with Mark, Andrea and
'the boys'.
The temp. today was 88 - 90 degrees, I'm hoping tomorrow for a cool down!!!

Day Out with THOMAS...
Traveled with Thomas the Engine fanatic (Nathan) along with his family to Boston Mills to take in the festivities of the day. Nathan enjoyed a slushy on the way and shared it with Mema, 'delicious'!!
I don't think I've ever seen as many small children and strollers in one place...and Thomas the Engine balloons were everywhere.
We placed Ben in the stroller (in his car seat) and gave Nathan the front row view as he rode shotgun in the front of the stroller with his sunglasses on. We stopped in a tent and watched the model trains run and took the photo opportunity to take Nathan's picture. Of course we HAD to stop in the Gift Shop and make some purchases. I bought Nathan a 'Thomas' tee shirt and an engineers cap (hopefully Nathan will wear it someday). We left Mark paying for Andrea's purchases and scooted over to see Thomas the Locomotive before it departed from the station. To Andrea's and my surprise when it left it backed out.... I was able to get one good picture of Thomas the train without alot of toddlers and parents in the picture.
We made the trip back home with only one stop at the rest area, no not for me, but for Mark. Something had upset his gastro system...
Mark made Nathan his lunch and Andrea fed Ben his lunch as I prepared to return to Windy Acres and make a trip to Joneses. Fooled again, Stephanie is not feeling good after a shopping trip with Angie - so I'm staying home this afternoon.
Dale mowed the grass when he got home from work - we ordered pizza from Remington's for supper - as the 'old folks' watch TV for the rest of the evening... This is Mema signing out :)

Riley Windy Acres
I have enjoyed reading other 'blogger' posts so much that I'm going to get in on the action... and try my hand at blogging.
I need some form of therapy away from ProQuest that this might just be the ticket. So with my blogging pass in hand, here I come...
