Memorial Day, 2007

I arrived back in Phoenix around noon yesterday after a fantastic two days on our farm. It was warm upon my arrival, surprise. :-) Andy greeted me with hashbrowns and scrambled eggs, although I doubt he made them especially for his mother-in-law.....but, they were very good anyway! In the afternoon we all got into their pool. Drew was really enjoying floating around with his mom and dad. I think he is liking that pool more and more. I haven't posted a picture of my grandson for almost a week and that is not right....so here are some from yesterday! Actually the first two pics are from today when my sister Sharon stopped by with Marge and Eileen (aka Thelma and Louise) for a visit. It was great to see them and had a very nice visit with them.

Sunday, May 27, 2007

Sunday was a beautiful spring day in Iowa. It was sunny, very little breeze and around 75 degrees. It was so nice we decided to get in a game of golf. Friend and fellow retiree Cyndy came up from Ankeny to golf and spend the night with us. Jan and Clayton invited us over to Miller Pond for a fantastic dinner in the gazebo. It was a great day, as the pics hopefully show!

Saturday in Iowa, May 26, 2007

Our Saturday on the farm was a good one. The weather was a bit overcast and rain sprinkled, but only in the morning. In the afternoon we drove around decorating family gravesites for Memorial Day. That evening Mark grilled huge T-bone steaks that were out of this world. My husband has certainly not lost his grilling touch. It was mainly just Mark and I for this day but we did get to visit with Kevin who came out on his Harley. I even jumped on for a short ride to Dan and Katie's and we had a nice visit with them and dog Tucker. Kevin wanted to take me for a longer rider on that awesome bike, but I must admit my nerves got the best of me and I declined. It looked to have a whole lot of power!!

Pics are from our Saturday at the cemetaries, shots from favorite photos in my home, etc.

Back home

I made a quick visit home on Friday and flew back to Arizona yesterday. (Memorial Day) It was so great to be back home on the farm and see Mark, my flower beds and some very good friends. Mark and I had an awesome time and it would have been very hard to leave him yesterday but knowing he is coming out here to AZ Thursday for Drew's baptism made it MUCH easier! The pics are random shots from the farm and all the water surrounding it!
