March - headed to Arizona to catch some sun, spend time with my parents and watch some MLB Spring Training. We had such a nice time sleeping in the RV, eating at PF Chang's and In-N-Out. Once you live in the north, you get the whole flyin' south for the winter...or least escaping for a long weekend. April - my sister Diana & my mother, Connie came for a long weekend visit. We celebrated my mother's 70th birthday. We lots of fun gal time. We toured the local museum to see the "Romans" exhibit and the Gates of Heaven, both were fascinating. At the end of April, my sister Lori & Randy came for a couple's visit. We had a great time touring the tulips, dragging the guys shopping and visiting Pike's Place. We had a beautiful evening of snowfall which was very pretty. July - joined a group of families from our community in having (39) 16 year old Japanese girl exchange students. Miho was from Tokyo, Japan and stayed with us for 3 weeks. It was her first time in the USA. The 3 of us had fun learning to communicte with one another. She was such a polite, bright and sweet girl. We very much enjoyed getting to know about her, her family & culture. August - we took another summer road trip with the Spencer family. The dogs even got to come. This time we pointed our compass towards Idaho. I rented a cabin in Grand Fork, Idaho just north of Sandpoint. We fit 4 adults, two teenagers, & 3 dogs in a cozy cabin. We spent lots of time on Lake Pend Orielle riding wave runners for the first time. What a blast we had! We also did some off road driving and target practice way up in the mountains. Brandie & I learned to shoot a riffle for the first time (no animals were harmed). We used old plastic milk jugs, plastic bottles, stumps....The scenery was great & we will definately go back to this area.
Here are some fun things we did to keep busy while waiting for you:
Diana & I smilin' in the daffodil fields! Good sister time...Angel Fans!
Tip toeing through the tulips...in the cold
Glorious Spring......
