I Said I Love You Guys…

Saturday October 29, 2011

The Little Brick House was on schedule to provide samples at the SUU Thunderbird Football game today.  As a result I had to work.  Went in to work around 9:30 and started making sandwiches.  We made 180 or so little sandwiches and then took them to a booth at the game where we handed them out to fans .  It was a pretty good handout.   A lot of people walked by, took a long look at the sandwiches – they were thinking – and then happily turned and had one as soon as we mentioned they were free.  We hope that it will generate new business.  It did bring in a little something after the game though I am not certain yet how much.  The lady that took the last sample came in with her husband.  Then, one of the first people to take a sample also came in.  I remember because she is on the drill team or whatever it is called these days.  After her sample she showed up again with several other girls from the squad.  They loved it.  She just had to come in.  We like that.

I had other engagements this evening so I left shortly after that.  We were on a record setting pace for a Saturday and I hope we saw more folks come in this evening.  I needed to take the kids somewhere and do something fun.  We got ready and went to Park Discovery.  They seemed to enjoy themselves with a bit of the usual drama that consists of Jack crying because Natty did something.  We all managed to make it.  We also went to Wal-Mart to pick up some goodies for a Halloween Party that we were preparing to go to.  We managed to get home, get dressed and get to the party.  Sure we were a little late but the kids had fun anyway. 

I did get connected with a friend in Florida this evening.  That was nice.  She is a great gal and actually helped out several times during some of the challenges.   It was nice to chat with her and she shared a story with me that I was unaware of.  On her very first Sunday in the LDS church she was able to hold Andy.  Andy fell asleep in her arms and that really helped her to feel welcome on her first Sunday.  That Andy, such a stud.    

As I was walking out the door this morning  Jack and Andy were in the living room.  I said:  “I love you guys”.  I got no response so I said “ I said  I love you guys”.  To this Jack, without moving  said “yeah, we heard you.”  I was dying.  What a kid.  He sure makes me laugh.  I was interrupting his train program.  Duh, I should have known better.
