Rainy day BBQ

Bill was up and out early as he attended the men's breakfast at church.  He also was bringing the french toast casserole.  He even made one for us so we too got to have a delicious breakfast today.  It is super easy to make and super good to eat!!   Everyone wanted lots.   

While Bill was out, I continued with the packing.  I tend to pack everybody as I just find this easier.  I do ask them to pick out their outfits and lay them out and I then come along and pack them up.   

After lunch, we took Abigail Seidle home and went off to a bbq for a colleague of Bill's former work.  He even knows him from JP Morgan Days - how crazy is that!!  Anyway, they live in Bloomfield, NJ which is an hour away from us and with all the traffic and rain it did take longer.  Yes, he planned for the rain very well they had two different tents/cazebo type things on the porch.  We also floated into the house!   They have this really cool home that is over 70 years old.  3 stories and a basement!   The top floor was my favorite.  They use it as an office space and a play area.  The entire floor has these wonderful skylights.  It was truly beautiful.  I told Bill if we had a house like that I would be tempted to put our Master bedroom up there and just look out into the sky.   (Must file that for when we look at houses!)   They also had a spread of food that was super fantastic.   The very last thing was this amazing steak appetizer.   It was beef tenderloin, herbed butter spread (home made) on Italian bread that was lightly toasted.  YUMMY!!!   

Home to more packing and organizing for our departure!   4:00 AM.
