It’s 9:25 am. Harvey’s 2nd birthday! I remember the day he was born. He was such a good baby and has grown to be a delightful little boy.
I dropped the kids off at Notasium this morning and asked if they did anything for kids with their birthday. They said they give a free snack, which I wasn’t excited about. Denied!
Saturday night we enjoyed eating a bunch of food at Richard Palmer’s pig roast. We sat on a blanket in a corner on a blanket eating big and a bunch of the pot luck dishes. It seems there was a lot of dishes there, including a pasta salad and fruit salad, so we probably didn’t need to bring two. But at least we didn’t’ feel guilty for not contributing. I always feel a bit awkward at such gatherings, probably I should introduce myself more when people say hello. Like I think Richard’s wife said hello and I said HI, but I probably should have gone over to introduce myself. Awkward. Oh well. After eating we wandered around his property. He had a croquet set out, which I probably haven’t seen since I lived at 3 Madaket dr. in Penfield NY. We could kind of see the Eno river which ran through his property, but there was a lot of bushes. His house was right along a pond, pretty much in the pond. His foundation must have been getting damaged from all the water leaking into it. Ross Widenhofer was already using his paddle boat for fishing, so we didn’t go on that. And Keira didn’t want to use the canoe. Maybe next year we will go on the boats.
Sunday morning we went to the Outlet and the kids had a good time on the rides. Seems they enjoyed them even more than last time. I bought a few shirts and some swim trunks.
Yesterday for dinner we ate lamb, a cucumber and fungus dish, rice, and some other dish I don’t remember. After dinner we went blueberry picking, probably for the last time this season. It was getting pretty sparse, but we still got 5 pounds in an hour. I think next weekend they will probably be gone, and it will be August already!
