Excited for Thanksgiving!

I have been by myself in Phoenix since Nov. 1st.  Mark flew back to Iowa after helping me drive down here and getting the lawn ready and the house up and running.  It is lonesome without him but I keep busy by hiking every day and bumming around the place and of course, shopping.  I don't get to do that much while I am on the farm! 

The weather has been beautiful, if not a bit warm still.  I usually hike in the morning before the heat really cranks up for the day.  It has been 90 or so ever since I arrived but the week-end is supposed to be in the 70's.  Brrrr.  :-)

I fly to Peoria on November 19 and am looking forward to that day!  Cannot wait to see how much Ryan has grown and what he is doing now!  Drew and Kayley are always a delight and I am sure I will be playing lots of games with them come Nov.19th.

I bought a one-way ticket to Peoria and will drive back to the farm with Mark after our Thanksgiving holiday in Peoria.  When he is ready to leave for the winter we will pack up his truck and do that drive through NE/KS/OK/TX/NM all over again!  Thank goodness for e-books, smart phones, etc.!!!

I haven't taken any pictures because my iPhone camera is too blurry after being dropped in water and I keep forgetting to take my other camera with me.  I have the feeling I will break down and get another iPhone because I really cannot live without it having a camera.  What's money?  Ha!

Since I have no pictures I stole some from Megan to remind me how cute my grandchildren are and how much I miss them!
