More Pictures From Last Night

Jere and Kristen’s children couldn’t get enough of playing in their newly remodeled basement – where the floor went from concrete to carpet earlier in the day.

 

 

Josh, Jared, Ian, and Jana

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Josh was standing next to his other grandma, I noticed that he is almost as tall as her.

 I tried to see how close I could get to Josh!

 

 

Kristen made a delicious supper – meat loaf, buttered potatoes, green beans, and this delicious BLT Salad.

BLT Salad

8 Slices Bacon

1 Head Lettuce – torn into pieces

1 Large Tomato – or more if desired

2 Hardboiled Eggs – chopped

1/2 Cup Grated Cheese

4 Pieces Bread – cut into cubes

Dressing

1/2 Cup Sugar

1 Teaspoon Mustard

1 Cup Miracle Whip

1 Tablespoon Milk

Just before serving, toss ingredients in bowl, saving some bacon crumbles and bread cubes for top.  Garnish with tomato slices.

 Storm Clouds Approaching!

 

 

 Shortly after supper we noticed a storm coming from the southeast.

 

 

 Before long we had drenching rain – which our yards, gardens, and fields desperately needed. 

This morning we learned that some places in our surrounding area had severe storm damage.  We didn’t even have very much wind.
