Rick shooting clay targets

Brent had cousins Rick & Paul and friends Bill & George out for some trap shooting today. Once they arrived, I took off, did some shopping, and bought a couple of pizzas for lunch. After lunch when they went outside for more shooting, I decided to switch the house over from the summer color of yellow to the fall color of orange: different towels in the bathroom & kitchen; new rugs in the bathroom, kitchen, and foyer; changed out the swag over the TV; removed the cups I had over the cupboards and put up colored leaves; changed the mantle decoration from flowers to pumpkins; instead of bird plates I put up Halloween plates; hung different pictures in the bathroom and study; different candles; the throws over the sofa and stuffed chairs were switched to fall prints; and even the refridgerator magnets were different. The guys came back into the house after shooting, had some snacks, talked, and watched a ballgame for awhile on TV. After they left, I remarked to Brent that none of them seemed to notice the change in the house. He looked around and said, "What changed?"

I just thought it was because we got the rugs dirty.

A woman wouldn't have taken 10 seconds to notice and say something.

Very true Rebecca. I noticed that the hand towel in the bathroom had changed, but didn't think anything of it.
