Saturday

Well, we didn't melt at Powell Gardens...but, almost. It really was a neat place, with lots of kid-focused educational and fun activities. The flora was gorgeous, and the butterflies, too. There is one kind of butterfly we saw (need to look up the name) with a little bit of blue on its wings, whose caterpillars only eat parsley. So I may try to plant some in our yard next year and see if we can attract some...My friend Jo came too, with her teenage boys. It was wonderful to have their muscle to lug our cooler and push strollers---oh, and, of course their company! :)

Kevin's been working really hard to meet a website deadline he's working on for a local church. God has really been answering our prayers and allowing things to move quickly. Tonight he's taking a short-but very necessary-break to watch the first Chiefs pre-season game. I should probably be a good wife and go sit with him and act interested--I mean, watch with him.
