Holiday Weekend

This past weekend when I realized i was really NOT at the center of things, my time was marked by all I did not do.I didn't help put up the new basketball hoop.I didn't hold the toddler so she wouldn't get hurt as they hoisted it.I didn't even so much as hold a screwdriver I didn't go out and get the fireworks AND I didn't prepare any meals...Really I just worked at my work and folded laundry.Oh and I took these pictures. This is our oldest, Carrie, who had more sense than I did and more energy too. She was a key part of the basketball-net-hoisting duty AND  she, wise girl, got out on the deck. It's Ok I think. Summer is just starting, right? It is, right? Isn't it? Someone tell me it's not a sin to waste a Sunday such as we just had!
