Whew !!!! What a weekend

On Friday Greg and Carlene arrived back at Sunbury, about 12 noon, and began to prepare for the second wedding. Next on Friday Luanne Kuehl arrived to help with the catering for ZEBS, which also began arriving about 4:30 that same day. Well if you think Friday stopped there.....nope.... The Bishers arrived with two trailers and began the move into Emoyene that was about 7:30 and of course there were the transport runs to pick up the students. All in all a very hectic day. But believe it or not saturday did arrive.

Six o'clock the ladies arrived to begin preparing breakfast and clean up from the meal the night before, this was not my job, Luanne took care of all that. Of course then there was lunch and tea and supper. All I had to do was finish five skirts and make one Zion robe. Yes I did get it done. This morning I put the button holes and buttons on. It is now in the hands of its owner. Oh let's see at 10:30, now this is Sunday??? Yes, Yes it is, the ladies were again in at 6:00, but were done by 9. Then of course the students had to be returned to the various transport areas. Now let me see... We picked up the ladies from their homes at 10:30 and headed to Gateway Mall (the biggest in the southern hemisphere) to let the ladies have a chance to say they had been there and while we were there we celebrated Ntombifuthi's birthday!! We let her choose the restaurant.... she chose Spur. Most of them had ribs and chix wings. Two of the ladies just had chicken. A little more shopping and then off to Amy and Rhyns second wedding. It was a great day we shopped, ate, shopped, ate, and danced. We got home at 8:30. I would say that counts as a full weekend.

Tomorrow we will finish tying up a few loose ends, show the Bishers around, they need to buy a stove, I'll do a little baking for tea on Wednesday with the ladies, and begin laundry so we can pack on Tuesday.

Tea on Wednesday morning with my ladies :) and off to the airport about 12:00 noon, I think our flight leaves around 4. Then we just sit back and try to rest so we won't be so tired when we get home (28 hours give or take and hour).

Thursday morning we come into St Louis airport and we are home. Then that rat race starts there, but that's another story.
