Saturday at Chico

First things first, Happy 79th birthday to my darling Gram! Today we went to Chico with Mike (Rich's brother) and Christina. Rich took this picture from the Poolside Grille and sent it to Jess (his other brother, in Florida) on his phone. Today was one of those days the Melin kids like to go to Chico--cold and snowy and not very crowded. We went for lunch (pizza and walnut salad) around 1pm and swam for an hour and a half.
Rich snapped this foto of the gang--Mike in front, Christina, James, me, Addie and Heidi.

Here we are again with less fog.

Heidi and James got out of the 105-degree pool water to walk around in the 20-degree air...crazy kids!
Addie tried to lay on one of the deck chairs
(Notice Heidi in the background licking the snow)

Here's Heidi licking the snow.
We took showers there and I lotioned up the girls and blew their hair dry so we were all ready for Sunday when we got home. We did a few errands in town, then came home and ate staduim brats and fruit for dinner. Then I made kettle corn at about 5:30pm and we all snuggled down stairs and watched "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince." Everyone is in bed and I'm actually feeling excited about a peaceful Sabbath tomorrow. Yay.
