Rachel and troops brought the trailer with ALL the rest of our junk. Oh my! I'd forgotten all of the boxes and boxes of stuff we had in that trailer. I even sent a couple of things back with Rachel that I didn't have room for--a hope chest with her momentos, a wicker trunk she's wanted for years, a space heater.
She didn't love the material that I have chosen for the chair covers, but she liked almost everything else. I over rode her opinion on the material. I like it! I think it looks lovely! So after I found my good scissors, my staple gun, and assorted other tools, we covered one chair just to see how we like it. I love it! So... It's my chair and I think it looks grand. I plan on making a valance for the kitchen window too. ;o)
Rick aired up the tires on our bikes that were in the trailer. He is sitting here waiting for me to go for a bike ride. Sigh...I don't know about riding bikes in 100 degree weather, Rick. I'm not any more Lance Armstrong than I am Michael Phelps. We'll see how far I make it this evening.
We enjoyed our visit with the kids. They are getting so grown up. I bought them little, rolling suitcases that they wanted. Their cousin has one and that was part of the "needed" list. I should have taken pictures. They were so cute with them. I always miss them tremendously when they leave. However, there are fingerprints, sticky stuff, and debris left behind to remind me of them. ;o) Rooster wants me to come to their house soon. He's also ordered a pirate bed. He has quite the list. Blakers delivered some great hugs that he's saved up for Grandma Jo. He's such a gentle heart. Love them so much.

I love the material! Sounds like you all had a very fun weekend.
I am glad Rachel was able to come and help you. I am sure the boys were big "helps" too. I like the chairs- fun colors.
