James has been getting ready for his Mountain Man Rendezvous for the past couple of weeks. Today he wanted me to go with him to an army surplus store. It was tiny, it looked like it use to be a convenience store but it was packed full of some interesting things. He bought a wool blanket, a coonskin cap and a shirt that I think is going to be too small. I wanted to buy a cast iron skillet but the ones they had were either too big or too little. I want a 12" one.
We hurried home because Darrel was at our house with his kids. Sheri and I took Ruby shopping at Walmart. When we drove in to the parking lot she said, "What is this place?' When I said Walmart, she said, "Oh, it's not Sprouts." On the way out I bought her a Happy Meal because My Little Pony was the toy. She got a pink one, one of her favorite colors.
Addy is excited because her cousins Kiley and Kayla get to spend the night tomorrow night. Rowan was happy to play Legos with his cousins Max and Evan.
This evening while James was busy making a medicine pouch out of leather for his 'rendezvous' I went to the Pleasant building to help Dave and Laura serve the food at Kiley Booth's wedding reception. Adam is good friends with the Booth's so he was there too. He looked very handsome in his suit. He and Dave were the runners. They took the food in to the refreshement tables while Laura and I stayed in the Primary room cutting brownies, lemon squares, and putting the other goodies on plates. My favorite goodies were the thumb print cookies Gary Booth's sister made. It's funny because I don't usually like thumb print cookies so I wasn't even going to try them. I am glad they did. They were flavored with almond extract and they were yumdelicious!
It was almost 10:30 when I got home.
