on Saturday, we took a tour of the town. we went to Wakulla Springs (where the water was ICE COLD!). we drove by Doak Campbell stadium on the way back into town. Mark and I decided to do "the chop" in honor of FSU.
most evenings involved coffee and Rook. we played probably 5000 points of Rook throughout the weekend. it was great. i can't begin to tell you how much we laughed. i'm beginning to suspect there was something in the coffee. anyhoo, we got to taking funny pictures with the built-in camera on my computer. here's the best shot we got:
brooke couldn't even open her eyes for the picture b/c she was laughing so hard! it was too much fun. we had such a good time with them. that's the most we've gotten to see them in years. their son Brock is about 14 months old, so we had a good time playing with him. he's a really good little boy.
on the way back home, we stopped and visited with my sister Kristi and her family in Coosada. true to form for the weekend, we played some Rook. it was great to see them. Kristi even agreed to wear my Bama hat for the picture, as long as i wore her ugly Auburn visor. it was so worth it!
so that was our crazy weekend. on to the mushrooms. brooke pointed these out to me last night when we got home from church:
these things popped up just overnight in our yard! and they seem to follow a path leading from our house, through the natural area, and into the front lawn. weirdest thing i've ever seen! does anyone know what might have caused these to pop up in a row like that? how should i get rid of them, other than just knocking them down? any suggestions would help.

Wow - Brandon still wears his Epsilon shirt, too. He also has his gray Homecoming one...they both are thread-bare and have holes but he will NOT let me throw them out or even put them up for safe-keeping...
Thanks for posting pictures of the Butts. It has been a long time since I have seen them. OH, and I'm a tad disappointed to see you with an Auburn visor on. Roll Tide nonetheless.
It is the time of year for the mushrooms, my nephew! They pop up in all kinds of places, numbers, shapes, etc...you don't HAVE to do anything. They will go away in a few days. If you are really lucky, you will have a fairy ring where the mushrooms come up in a perfect circle. It is said that the fairies come out at night and dance around the circle of mushrooms. Anyway, that is all I know about the shrooms... Love you, Aunt Laura
We had so much fun on Monday! Scott and I even played Rook for 2 players (there is a ghost player) and I beat him! He said he is proud of me because I am learning to think the game... :)
Memories of Epsilon! I think an old favorite shirt is worth it's weight in gold. I have got a huge box of old shirts that I have been given strict orders NOT to throw away! Love to you and Brooke
