Fourth of July Weekend
We had a great weekend. Some of Corrine’s high school and college classmates (batchmates) who now live in either Chicago or Indianapolis came down for the long weekend(Ken, Joy, Barri & Juan), along with May and Shao so Hotel de Kidd was quite the happening place.
Everyone (In addition to the out of town guests, John, Dennis, Rob, Annie, Steve, Laura & my mom ) arrived Friday, had a great time, it was a little cool to play in the pool, so we instead had a big bon fire in the back yard, which was quite cool. I can’t say I would have ever guessed we would have built a bon fire on the fourth of July and we weren’t that hot (Unless we got closer to the fire). We then went to the pool deck and watched the Oxford Fireworks.
Then on Saturday, we spent the day around the house playing Wii, and playing in the pool. We never left the house, we thought about leaving, but just never got around to it. (It was our mini vacation..)
They Sunday, we went to Church, either OBF or St. Mary’s depending on the preference. And then we gave the OBF crowd a tour of Oxford and Miami, then went up to lunch, at our favorite local place Phan Shin. Then it was back to the house, for relaxing and then the out of town guests left.
Since John just bought a house on Monday, there was some work to do, so we went over to see how things were going, and since it looked like they weren’t going to stop for dinner, we invited them, (John, Steve and Laura) over for dinner. So we played in the pool some and then had some grilled pork chops. Busy weekend, but a lot of fun.
