Mark and I just returned from three days in Laughlin, a.k.a the senior citizen gambling capitol of America! Not many youngsters here but we had a great time giving the machines our money! The weather was gorgeous and we enjoyed walking along the Colorado River and sitting by the pool when we needed a rest from the slot machines. The food was good, too! I would say we will take a trip back there again next winter for a quick getaway.
This week takes me to Peoria, IL to see my favorite three kids in the world. Can you tell I am super excited? I am certain Ryan has changed so much and will not know me but I will remedy that situation quickly....I hope! Mark is staying here to host son-in-law Andy and two of his brothers who will be in town to take in some spring baseball and golf. They are in for some heat. Weatherman said it could be record highs in the 90's while they are here. That will be a stark change for those boys after their winter temps.
Mark and I have tickets to a Diamondback game tomorrow at their new stadium so more fun in the sun for us!
Next time I post I will be using pics and videos of Drew, Kayley and Ryan. Until then, this is all I have!
