Labor Day Weekend

This weekend Kenton had to work all weekend - there were games Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday...

So, on Saturday I went to the Phi Mu suite for the recruitment preview for alumnae. Basically, we go and watch what they have worked on for recruitment so far and tell them what they need to work on before the actual events. I was the only alum who showed up, but it was fun.

On Sunday I drove into Tell City and spent the afternoon with Grandma Wittmer - we went to lunch at Arby's and then went to bingo at the high rise (where all the seniors live)... it was interesting. Some of the ladies played up to 20 cards at one time! I didn't win. :-(

I got to Derby about 4pm and found out there was going to be a hog roast across the road from the house. Erin (Kenton's sister), Jeff, Josh, and Alyssa were already over and everyone was sitting on the front porch. Alyssa was looking cute as ever!

About 6pm we went across the street to this place below. They had an open garage of sorts with tables, food, and karaoke in it. We sat outside of this towards the river - the area is right on the river and we walked down some steps and onto a dock. The river is just to the left of the picture. Everyone brought a dish, their own drinks and the hosts had shredded BBQ pork - as fresh as it gets. :-)

The biggest covered dish ever!

After we had finished eating, I danced with Alyssa for awhile and Josh ran around with one of the kids - they even had a playground over there. After Erin, Jeff, Josh and Alyssa left, Jim, Sheila and I sat watching the karaoke. Some good, some bad, some really bad. Later in the night I got up and sang a song - the beginning was somewhat horrible, but by the end I think I did alright.

I went back to sit down and wanted to do another song with someone else, got shot down by Sheila but Jim volunteered! We had some trouble picking out a song, but it was great!

On Monday, I stayed with Grandma Hargis for awhile and then trekked back home. All in all, it was a lot of fun and much better than sitting around Evansville by myself.
