End of the weekend.

Well, My sister had to change up her costume last night again. She didn't like the mask so decided to become another type of witch. Kind of scary. I tried to concoct for her a corn starch/corn syrup mix, and it didn't quite work, so she used the 99 cent stuff from Wal*Mart. The stuff kind of irritated her skin though..

Here's the new costume:

Nate didn't think much of her to start with by finally warmed up to the fact that her skin was green and that she had a big nose, and that she didn't look to have had combed her hair forever.

Nate also got to ride the combine on Saturday;

Dad said it is one of his best years with soybeans. That is good to hear.

Lastly, Nate was taken to the Truman Homecoming parade on Saturday morning. He loved it. We went to see my nephew, Matthew, play the drum and march. He's the one playing the bass drum. Apparently he plays another type of drum, but someone renigged on the bass so he had to do it...



That is our weekend in the nutshell. Lynn was happy to see us back, she apparently had a very busy weekend so I will have to let her tell you about it.

another thing of note, my sister and dad were on the local tv station, KTVO, with the haunted house. Seems it is unique to have a haunted Blacksmith's shop out there or something. Oh well. Heard lots of stories about the people that were helping. Seems they were ne'er-do-wells, ran their own house in Lancaster for the longest time but were helping out with this one. Interesting. It will go again on Halloween.

Later,
