Sunday evening Debby and crew arrived in time for The Meeting which cousin Alan spoke at. Afterwards we all converged on David and Gillian for a meal of pasta, home made bread, cake and cookies. All "the wee ones" ran around and the parents talked. When they all get going I have a hard time understanding them. When Deb and David left they had 4 chickens in the back of the van with all the kids. The hens are for friends to raise.
Monday Mom. Aunt Earla, Catherine and I took a trip into Dumfries to the 101 shop ( one of Mom's favourite dress shops )and to have lunch. It turned out to be a beautiful day after the rain earlier. After supper we visited Alan and Ruth to help celebrate Grace's 21st birthday with cake, tea and sweets. There are always sweets whenever you have a cup of tea.
Tues is was cloudy and rainy again. I went off to the market with David and Nathan ( he is learning how to farm - that is his dream ) and had a great time visiting with people, watching the auction, feed stores, meeting Gillian's dad, the scenery, the narrow roads, little villages, round a bouts. Spent the night at Alan and Ruth's.
Wed was cloudy, sunny, rainy, rainbow - a mix of everything. Gillian picked up Ruth and I and then Mom and Aunt Earla and off to Dumfries House we went for a tour. Built in the middle 1700's and filled with Chippandale furniture 250 years old. Prince Charles had a strong influence on it not being sold in auction. Rubin, Hannah and Eliana were perfect little kids during the tour and lunch at the Cafe. Uncle Alan off to the Doctor today to see about his leg which has been botheing him
