Grant and his friend playing golf during a playdate.  His friend has played in a lot of tournaments and it sounds like he is quite the player!  Future Phil Mickelson?!?!
One of our summer to-dos was to have a lemonade stand, and one day after church, we hurriedly put one together and actually had a great time!  We pitched a tent in a vacant lot in our neighborhood and had some tunes playing.  Thankful for great friends, neighbors and supportive strangers who came to support them.  More than 50 glasses of lemonade sold and about 10 bags of Cheezits (that's one way to clear out our food clutter from bulk buying!).  10% of their earnings were returned to the church for their tithe.  Last I heard, they had both chosen to save the rest of their earnings.
We had a quick, fun trip to Dallas/Arlington this weekend.  We stayed with family two nights - one with the Colvins and one with the Hefners.  My cousin, Libby, and her husband drove up to meet us, so there were all three of the Hefner granddaughters there.  We are very outnumbered - 8 grandsons, and then 7 great-grandsons so far!  It was a great weekend full of (house offering) fun, (house couter-offering) sun, (house buying) baseball, and (listing our house) relaxing with family.  (we came home to finish decluttering our house and mowing the yard).  We went to the Rangers game with the OSU Alumni Association so there was a lot of orange in the crowd, too.  We ran in to two people we knew (a volleyball friend and a great buddy of mine from college) so that was fun!
