Monday, Once Again

Everyone was back at school or work today. Todd and Forry went over to continue working on the new house (Todd's putting down a vapor barrier underneath and Forry has been changing out plug-ins.). Which left me home alone again most of the day. So nice!


Micah's school (91 School) was scheduled to have their Spring Band and Choir Concert this evening at six, which meant he had to leave at 5:30 which is before his Mom usually gets home from work. We decided the easiest thing might be was to eat dinner after the concert. I was trying to think what I could make that would keep -- something that wouldn't mind sitting for a half hour or more. Todd said they had lots of packages of stew meat in the freezer, so we decided beef stew would work very well.

I was going to have the fellows pick up onions and hard rolls on their way home, but when I called them I discovered that they would not be home until after five thirty either. So when Havela and Kyra got home from school, we went into the Safeway in Canby and picked them up along with a few more groceries.

The 91 School (Grades K-6) had full bleachers in the gym for the Spring Concert. The music alternated between the band and the choir, telling the story of the settling of the country and the explorers and settlers that game to Oregon. The program was only a half hour long, but it was very well done. Grandson Micah and his trombone are hard to spot in the above picture as he is way in the back...

When Havela went to start the car to go to her choir practice after Micah's concert, it would not start (even though Dawn had just arrived home in it!) Grandpa took her into Canby, then came back to eat supper and to help Todd work on the car. (They ended up getting a new battery for it. Can you believe they actually found a Reilly Car Parts open in Woodburn at 10 PM at night?!)
