Nothin Excites me like a good SALE

Yesterday my good friend Karen Ginn emailed me and said that there was going to be a sale for model home furnishings at reduced prices. Okay, I'm there! so we met at 7:30 am to go to a wearhouse in Chino. Fun Fun Fun, I called my daughter Kristen and she also got some great things ( the pictures are hers) but she got two fabulous big stuffed chairs for $85.00 each! oh, that cute little chest of drawers was $15.00 ( that goes to Candice) it matches a crib we are saving for her when the good news happens.
I guess they only do this once a year, so hopefully I'll hear about it next year.

The grandkids love hearing stories from Grandpa. He told them about his youth.
Little Bridget especially loved hearing how he got his "scars".
The above picture is Bridget giving cousin Kate a "makeover" ( Mack looks on with approval) it was Bridget's birthday present from me. I have to tell you it was a HIT, she took that eveywhere she went. She is such a girlie girl!

Fun Vacation

Our family was finally able to go back to our cabin near Prescott Arizona. Back in 1947 my mom and dad bought a cabin in the pines. I grew up there each summer and I have wonderful memories. It was long time coming to be able to go back with my children. It was heaven. The weather was perfect and the grandkids had a fun time. The creek was running, we had two quads up there, and the visiting and food was fabulous.

here are some fun pictures of being together. We are headed up there again next summer!
