Well, its just me and the piggy right now. I figure, about another hour and the pig will be ready to face the day. ;D    I wanna thank Wally (Reddog) and his wife Mary for taking care of the purchase of "little wally" this year (The pig). That was a tremendous help and we love those two. (Mary and Wally)  :)  (Little Wally too  ;))

I thought I would take a minute before I start putting the beans together to post some photos of supper last night. I dont have a count, but we had quite a bunch of friends here and had a great time.  Looking forward to the day!

Well, Jeff,

My oldest got sick on the last day of our trip (yesterday).  We have a Dr. Appointment for her today.  My Niece had strep throat last week so we are worried she has it too.

I am debating on coming myself, but it wouldn't be the same without the family (and the planned sneak attack on Wildflower ;)).   I just picked the peppers for the salsa too :(

I'll make the call in the next few minutes.  In any case, say hi to everyone and from the little ones, especially to the Stump Jumper crew.  There are going to be a few tears when I break the news to the ones still sleeping.

The kids and I are sitting here druling and sobbing  :'( on the computer wishing we were there.

PT ended up being on call this week and could not get away. He worked yesterday  got called in about 8 then again about 10 and managed to get home about 6 this morning. I tried talking him into telling work were to go and heading out this morning but he just did not think that he could make it up there safely after being up for 24 hours  smiley_sleeping .

So hope everyone enjoyed lunch and eat some for us. food2
Tell Little Miss Stump Jumper and Ashely (if she made it) Hey from Taylor . Someone has to pick on Furby smiley_devil_trident a little extra for her too. Ok you better pick on him A LOT. teeter_totter

Wouldn't you know OWW would be standing there looking for what is "Left".  :D

That pig looks like it is "All Right" to me.  :D :D

I have it on good authority that the "left" hams are the tenderest.   Granddad would take me to Sunrise Grocery, where he was good friends with the butcher, and order a "left" ham.  This scenario would repeat its self every time he would go in.

"I've got some good looking "Right" hams", says the butcher.
"No, Gotta have a left ham, their the most tender.  Most pigs are right footed and scratch with that right foot.  The "right" hams get tough.  They just stand on the left foot and it lets the left ham be the most tender. "

Then there would be a lengthy conversation about wrapping it up and weighing it.  I, being knee high to a toad, would leave thinking that they were some might smart fellows.  :D
