Memorial Day

It's foggy, drizzly and cold in Colorado Springs today. The streets are lined with flags. We attended the Academy parade this morning and huddled together to keep warm. Tonight is a chorale concert.

The Slayton family has an extra daughter for the week, while I am enjoying the appropriation of 3 younger brothers (22, 19, and 17 yrs. old). Hugs, teasing, joking, talking, and competition galore. The laughs never cease! Micah and I beat Caleb and Uncle Paul at Rook last night. Today I'm brushing up on my ping pong skills and on Weds. it will be racquetball. =)

Plenty of Kenyan coffee is being poured and it's nice to settle down in the couch to read. Hope you all are enjoying the day and taking a break from the normal busyness.
