We had another good week. It has been unusually windy here. It made me think about all the wind I used to battle on the farm in Iowa trying to plant a garden and put in my flowers as I watched them sometimes ripped to shreds. It wasn't that bad here, but it did blow pretty hard several days.
Yesterday Megan and I did a long hike in the morning. It felt good but I could tell I had skipped last Saturday's hike. Climbing steep inclines requires you to stay in constant shape or you start sucking wind half way up! Megan and I really don't see one another during the week because I usually leave before she gets home so it was fun to have a long visit with her.
At noon we took Kayley for her 9 month picture appointment. It is so easy to make her smile...usually. :-) The unfamiliar surroundings just had her looking around but the photographer tried her best to act like a complete fool to make her smile. I think the shots still turned out great, though. I will scan a couple and post later.
Last night Megan, Andy and the kids took Mark and I out for pizza at our favorite pizza restaurant in honor of another birthday for old Grandma. I guess the years are going by fast to help me get on medicare as quickly as possible. :-( I still have a few to go but it seems to be approaching rapidly.
Today Mark and I are spending the day on a golf course watching an LPGA event here in Phoenix. I had hoped to see Michelle Wie but she has not played very well and is teeing off in the "wee" hours this morning. I don't want to see her THAT badly! I will settle for Lorena O. and Karrie Webb. :-)
Update: Just returned from the golf tournament. Karrie Webb won it. We had a great time and saw some awesome women golfers! We did get there in time to follow Michelle for a few holes. She had a police officer following along with her caddy.
Have a great week, wherever you are!
