Kids Visit

We had a really fun time even though the weather didn't cooperate with the kids visit. Kyle turned 25 so we had a celebration with Granny, PaPa, and Bobbie down.

Lauren thought Kyle's girlfriend Carma was the greatest and I was definitely jealous. I can't complain as it's a treat just to have my family together.

Lauren had fun at Uncle Kyle's birthday celebration.

Aunt Bobbie, my sister is a big part of my boys life and we can always count on her to visit.

Mesa to Pick up our New Winter Home

We travelled to Mesa, AZ in our Jimmy John's VW Bug to pick up our new winter home as that was the only vehicle we could tow back. I have to say it was alot more comfortable travelling home in the RV with room to move. We had a great side trip to Sedona, and what a beautiful place!


This is the view from my passenger seat with my feet up having happy hour.

We took off down a road to see Montezuma Hillside dwellings and Terry was pretty proud of making this corner with 60' of rig. We learned that you need to know what you're getting yourself into as you can't turn around just anywhere.

Terry's New Way of Life

My blogging is going to have to improve with Terry's new toy as we'll be travelling and have lots to report. We are getting back into RVing now that we have more time to travel. We're off to Mesa, AZ to pick up our new home next week and we'll hopefully come across an oil well along the way with all of our gas guzzlers that we own. No more cold winters!!

The Fun's Over and it's Time to Get to Work!

I've been told that my new address for at least 6 months will be Stillwater, Oklahoma. We have been working on obtaining a site for Stillwater for 2 years and it's finally going to happen with construction starting next week on an existing building. We should be open May 1st if all goes well. Kyle will be moving down from our Jefferson City store to manage this territory and well be joining him as long as it takes to get the store up and running. We're excited about this market with it being the home of OSU but the hours will be ridiculous!!

It was definitely an experience trying to find a place to live in a college town that would meet my standards and the rent is EXPENSIVE!

Texas with the Folks

We returned from the Florida Keys to snow and decided to head back to warmer weather and visit my parents in Harlingen, Texas. We went to our first jam and it was actually alot of fun. I secretly told them it was my Dad's 79th birthday and they surprised him with singing "happy birthday".

We attended "western day" in their park for a parade and entertainment. We had quite a few laughs about retirement in Texas with Terry and I thinking we weren't ready for this life.

The musicians at the jam were really good and anyone could get up to sing and participate. I would have joined in but they didn't know Mony, Mony. We also went into to Mexico where Terry got a pedicure and a $4.00 haircut. I'm glad we took this time with my parents as life's too short but they are more active than we are!

Texas Here We Come!!

Mom & Dad called and wanted us to come visit them in Texas for a couple of weeks, so here we come. It doesn't take much to convince us to get out of this cold weather.

Missing Persons Report!!

Where O where is RK & DK?? They never made it to The Keys to see us as they decided to stop in Mississippi and stay in a "DRY COUNTY". We sure missed you!!

I have to say that driving didn't seem as bad after their adventure.
