We had a nice quiet weekend with rain Friday night, sun & wind Saturday and sun & wind Sunday. Overall it was a lovely weekend. After last weekend, we just took it easy and hung out with Rita. Joel & I purchased a 4 wheeled mobility scooter so Rita would be able to go for "walks" at the lake and that worked out quite nicely. Finn made a race course and was racing himself on the scooter. It's amazing he won every race. Joel finally after 2 years put his horseshoe pits in. Look out Wayde & Klaus.......he might even get some practice in before the horseshoe tournaments in July. Big Joe brought his friend, Christine to the lake this weekend. We didn't see much of either of them because they were in Hayward, WI for a pow wow. Christine entered a dancing expo for fun, so we were able to see 4 of her dancing dresses that were filled with indian beading that she does very beautifully. We didn't see Steve or Pam this weekend at all. We figure he thinks that if he comes over we will put him to work. HEY STEVE, COAST IS CLEAR........WORK IS ALL DONE FOR THE SUMMER! Now it is time to enjoy the lake :)
So here's a story for the books.......it is absolutely hilarious, now that it is over:
Rita came up to the lake for a nice relaxing weekend. We all arrived about 7:30pm and get everything settled. We decide to have a little cocktail or 2 and about 10:00 p.m., she decides to go to bed. It was a little cold for her, so heated up the bed in the guest room and plugged in a radio beside the bed, so that she would have something to do in the morning (she apparently is an early riser). I get up the next morning around 6:30 am so that I can go hang with her. I'm in the bathroom doing my hair and Joel is lying in bed. All of a sudden I hear him say "Shit" and I turn around to see him holding a set of teeth. After I shook off the disbelief, I realized they were Rita's teeth. I finish getting ready, grab the teeth & go racing downstairs to see what is going on. Big Joe is up and looking for Lilly. He saw her go racing out of the guest bedroom with something in her mouth. He didn't see where she had disappeared to. Well, we figured out very quickly what had happened. Lilly likes to check everybody out in the morning, so she raced into the guest bedroom where Rita was sleeping. Rita didn't take her teeth out, so when she fell asleep, her bottom teeth fell out. Well, Ms Lilly found them in the bed and figured she found a new play toy. She grabbed them and ran upstairs where she got back into bed with Joel and started chewing on them.......
So I put them on top of the refrigerator, because Rita obviously decided to sleep in. So around 8:00 am Rita shows up in the breezeway (Big Joe & I were having a cup coffee) in her nightgown & cane and "Good Morning". I look at her and asked if she was missing something and then went & got her teeth. She laughs and says "I didn't know Lilly was a dentist". You had to have been there......it was so funny, after we figured out that her teeth were still in working order and Joel & I weren't going to have to buy a set of teeth.
To all of you that come and stay with us in the guest bedroom........remember to put your teeth up on the dresser :)
This weekend Jonathan has his friend Jeromy coming, but other than that it appears to be another quiet weekend with nobody on the books to be joining Joel & I. So if you have an open weekend and want to toss in a quick get-away, give us a shout.
Check back soon........Check back often
Joel, Amy & Jonathan
