**Kyle Carney** (3:58)
Yes.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:00)
What was the purpose of gathering that day?

**Kyle Carney** (4:06)
Socialize. It was a nice day out. I was having a fire to burn some brush in my backyard and thought it would be nice to invite them to come over and get the kids out and enjoy a nice day.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:19)
And what was Lindsay's demeanor that day?

**Kyle Carney** (4:26)
Is she quieter than normal?

**SPEAKER_2** (4:31)
And do you recall saying previously that the weekend was fairly normal, that Lindsay had always been a little tough to get a beat on, kind of quiet, but you were in the kitchen talking and it seemed normal?

**Kyle Carney** (4:46)
I mean, in the kitchen, we had a conversation and that was normal.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:50)
Normal, okay. Do you recall describing the day previously as a perfectly normal afternoon, really nice?
