IT SURE WAS A FUN AND FAST WEEK

Julie and Jason fly out this evening at about 6:15 :( It was a fast and fun week though. Wednesday was pretty much a do nothing day. We had steaks for supper and then the kids were off to their Cousins Ryan and Mindy's so they could meet Cadence who is almost 11 months for the first time in person. Jason went to coffee with his dad for a couple of days to kick off his morning. Thursday Julie Ash and I went to Dport so Ash could order her dress for the wedding. It is so pretty. Then we went to Von Maur so I could show Julie the dress I had picked out for the wedding. She gave the okay! so I have ordered it and it is already at the store. As we were walking out of Von Maur Julie just wanted to walk past the shoes. So we did and low and behold she found bridesmaids shoes she liked. So when we got home she did the internet search and found out that this weekend they were 30% off plus the price was cheaper than in the store to start with. So that was all kind of fun. Thursday night we went to Genos in Preston for pizza and then card playing after we got home. Julie learned how to play Rummy. Friday night we went to a hockey game at Moline and watched the Flames beat the Iowa Chops. Saturday the kids got their engagement pictures taken and then to Bluff Lake for supper where we met Dan and Gretchen Chapman. The kids were going bowling with Dan and Gretchen afterwards but to only find out that they were having a tournament at the bowling alley so then they went to a bar and had a couple of drinks before they came home. They were also here to witness hopefully the last snow fall of the winter season in the springtime. At least the weather was just starting when they did their pics so they did get some outside ones done also. I can't wait to see them.

Wedding plans are in full swing and getting really exciting.

Now we all get to get back to the real world and go back to work on Monday. We are all grateful I think that we all have our jobs to go back to.

I hope everybody has a good week.
