Weekend wrap-up

Hi kids, Daddy here.


It was another exciting weekend for the Mansfields. On Saturday, Alex and I got up at 5 a.m. to get our stuff to the Big Sale at the convention center. I dropped Alex off after the last load and Cagle, Cristy and I stood there from 7 a.m. until 2 in the afternoon trying to sell all of our stuff. We sold all of it except that darn table and chair set. Will we ever get rid of this thing?  Still, we did ok. Made enough to buy and Xbox game or two, lol.

Also this weekend it was first Holy Communion for Claire Watkins and Serena Palmer and some other kids to. After Mass, we went to the Watkins for a great big get together. Alex asked if we'd stay for 5 hours, and we stayed for almost 5 hours exactly, lol. You guys got to ride horses for the first time.



We all had a good time, except when Izzy touched the yellow 'string', which was the electrified fence. Ouch! However, that pain was later dwarfed by when Jake got bit by a dog IN THE FACE! Jake did nothing to warrant this. It was just a mean old dog. I'm so sorry that happened to you buddy. But, in true Jake fashion he took it like a champ. You are an amazing human being son, and I'm proud to call you my son. All in all we had a pretty good weekend, and this coming week we can't wait to watch the play Peter Pan Jr. Alex is Captain Hook, Jake is a brave Indian, and Iz is a fairy, perfect rolls all around. Mom and me are so proud of you guys.I love you guys.

Daddy
