Visitors from Kansas.....

I wasn't a very good "picture taker" when Diana, Tim, Sheri, Andy and Lynn were here, but that doesn't mean we didn't enjoy their visit! The guys went golfing, bowling and to the casino (where Andy was extremely lucky.....Sheri had her share of luck also!) The girls did some shopping and we all had a nice visit. If only they could have stayed longer! They had better plan a visit again soon! This picture was taken on the morning they were flying out (at 3:30 a.m.!!!!)

Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Aviation Day

Mike, Carter, Allison, and I dropped by the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport yesterday morning for their Gateway Aviation Day. They had over 30 different aircraft, as well as lots of emergency response vehicles from the airport and the local fire department, which Carter loved. Actually, I think he loved everything he saw! :)

Clock jumping...

Here's a look at Dad and Mom's jumping clock. It keeps time very well...except for the first 5 minutes or so of every hour :)

Grandma and Grandpa visit......

We all enjoyed the 10 days that Grandma and Grandpa were here visiting! I'm sure we wore them out, but it was so nice to be able to spend time with them. These pictures are in random order.....enjoy!!!!
