While Larry Was Away

While Larry was fishing in Cabo, Lisa came to visit. We had a great time together, as always. But what really makes me laugh is the fact that while Larry was not here, Lisa and I watched baseball every night, and visited his construction site!! We also went to a movie which was a musical. Have I lost my mind?

To be honest, I recorded all the games for Larry, in case Barry Bonds broke the record while he was out of the country. But then we wanted to fast forward through them daily to see if he actually hit any home runs. That is the ONLY way to watch a game. :-) The question of the day is.... WHEN WILL BARRY BONDS BREAK THE RECORD SO I CAN STOP WATCHING GAMES???






Nina made a great dinner for us. I always enjoy my time when I visit them. This time we got to hear about Eric's recent 5 day back packing trip, where he caught over 50 fish. I played in the "tent" that Allan gave the kids, told stories, listened to their stories, went swimming, played hide 'n seek, played with the cars, hid the cars no less than 20 times, hunted for cars that Daniel and Luke hid, and..... after all that, Daniel said, "Grandma, will you play with me?"

So true! The boys could play forever. We loved having you and Aunt Lisa up to visit! It's always fun for Ellie and the boys to have new people come to visit or should I say play with them. :-) In response to the question. I think it will be the first home game. When is that BTW? :-)

Joyce,
The picture of you and connor in the snow is adorable. The one where you have him wrapped up in your coat. That reminds me of the one you have with either Katie or Eric at a cabin. You're out on the porch w/ snow in the back ground. Great pictures!!

Can't wait to catch up w/ you sometime!
