Getting Ready for Move

Amanda and Chad bought a different home, so Ron and I motored to Olathe on Saturday, July 21 to visit, play with the kids and help a bit getting their current home ready to put on the market soon.  We took a family favorite, Pizza Glen Pizza, for lunch - yummy.  Garrison and Peyton got their hair cut - Garrison's first time ever - both looked adorable - Garrison with a big boy haircut and Peyton trimmed and her bangs braided, which pleased Grammy because they stayed out of her eyes all day.  Amanda and Chad had already done quite a bit of packing and getting ready for the move.  We took boxes and brought home some valuables and fragile items to store at our house until the move so the current house will appear bigger and less cluttered for potential buyers.  Amanda, Peyton and Grammy ran some errands in the afternoon - Sam's Club, Home Depot - and drove by the new house, which I liked!  Good neighborhood - close to All Around Child - and closer to Sprint.  Beautiful yard and trees - didn't get to go inside.  Ron and Chad moved some things to the garage so that when their pod arrives this week, it can be loaded more quickly.

Around  5 p.m., everyone was ready for dinner and ready to sit down, so we all went Olive Garden (Peyton's favorite) for a bite to eat.  We had a great time - Garrison was so much fun - he was flirting with a lady in the booth behind Grammy - just giggling and showing off.  Peyton ate so well and enjoyed her meal very much.  After a quick stop back at the Todd's, Grammy and Grandpa made the journey back to Clinton.

On Sunday, I played the gathering music at the first service at church, and a piano/organ duet with Sam Lucas, Organist, at both services for offertory - Softly and Tenderly.  Fun.

I fixed meatloaf, baked potatoes and peach cobbler/ice cream for lunch at Mom's.  Nap.  Good weekend.
