Lazy weekend

We got to go to the wedding shower thrown by Jennifer's work and organized an hosted by Lynn Wright. The shower, though different, was as much fun as the one thrown by Elizabeth. I don't think there was quite as much alcohol consumption (even though my co-workers attended) but it was fun just as well. Any time Lynn and John have a party it's a great success and food is always awesome. As far as the shower goes, we made out like bandids, so now we have to find room for all the goodies (which Jennifer will accomplish by getting rid of my stuff) and write the tank you notes.

Rita came into town for the shower, so Jennifer was busy shopping and doing other mother-daughter stuff with her. Due to this, the weekend turned out to be mostly chore-less for me - a nice break from all the traveling and wedding preparations. It'll be back to the grind soon enough.

Homer tolerated the visit pretty well, too. He had a couple of nice walks this weekend, the rain has cooled everything down nicely. This morning we saw two baby snapping turtles, maybe three inches long, in the park close to where in the early summer we saw the big monster turtle hang out. The babies didn't look as vicious, but I bet they already could have chomped down pretty hard.
