Saturday afternoon, I had Lily over to practice our pie making skills. Our plan for the afternoon was to make three pies – a cherry pie for Lily, a pumpkin pie for the Hills (friends of my Grandma Buecher), and a peach pie for Josh and me. We successfully completed our mission with time for two games of Othello and a couple games of Uno before Josh arrived home with our pizza dinner.
After dinner, we drove to visit the Hills. Mrs. Hill took a nasty fall last Friday and broke her shoulder, but she
was in good spirits and we enjoyed our visit with them. From the Hills we drove to Lily’s grandparents (the Kahlers) to drop Lily off. Mrs. Kalher has an amazing rock collection, and she took time to show us a “few” of her rocks and fossils, and Mr. Kahler made us some very rich hot chocolate.
Sunday evening (while writing this post), the fire alarms in our apartment building went off . Apparently, there was a grease fire in one of the first floor apartments – exciting times.
