The moms enjoyed talking.

3 Sundays ago the Wilson family invited us to their house after church. We had a blast! They have a big basement with lots of space. After a wonderful meal, we got Mr. Wilson to come down and we played "guard the balloons". It was lots of fun! We had the parents laughing really hard!
After evening church, we went back to their house because they had invited us over for some popcorn. While the parents chatted, we had our own personal entertainment! The boys wrestled. It was SO fun to watch!

Five things about me that most people don't know....

Mrs. McCoy, here are those "tag" answers you have been asking for....


- I can't stand waking up to music, which is ironic for a musician!


- I've been to the ER more times than anyone else in our family


- I eat peanut butter with my cereal


- I'm part Armenian


- I've practiced the piano 1, 67o hours in the last 2 years...



So there they are!

Gift Certificate to "The Cutting Crew".

Last Saturday was our annual 5th Ward "Neighborhood Watch" Picnic. Besides all the great food and visiting with a lot of neighbors and city officials, they also had some door prizes. One of the organizers went to business owners in the area and got donations. They had gift certificates to resturants, pizza places, florists, etc. When they announced a gift certificate to a hair salon for a free cut, style and shampoo, I just knew that they were going to draw my name......and sure enough, they did. You should have heard the place erupt with laughter - I guess they knew that none of us girls have ever cut our hair.

Our dad never lets us waste anything so..............................yep, sure enough, I had to go use that gift certificate!!!!! (If you believe that, I'll tell you another one............ha!)
