I am a tad bit behind in my blogging so here are some great updates since February.
1. My oldest sister, Shannon, came to visit from the cold of Colorado. She is great fun and a great time:) As you can see we took Odin and went hiking on South Mountain. Her and I are both directionally challenged and we almost got lost but I had been on the trail before and the catastrophe of hitching a ride averted.
My beautiful sister, Shannon.
Odin is the best hiker and he can go off leash and not wander so he always gets to come with.
The smiles say we are sisters :)
2. My Dad came to visit:) I love when people visit! I have missed my dad and haven't seen him or my sister for that matter since the wedding so it was a good time. Dad and Ted (his blind and deaf dog) were down for 4-5 days to help celebrate Lyle's 90th and help us with a few 'honey dos' that were being neglected around the house. Now, all of our closet doors close and open.
The stairs were like walking the plank for this blind dog. I literally had to wave my arms back and forth to get his attention most of the time.
Juliet is still weary as Ted has a bit of an old man "I'm deaf and blind leave me the hell alone" attitude.
3. My Great Uncle Lyle turning 90! He and his wife drove from Oregon to AZ to celebrate with friends and family. So not only did I see him and his wife but my dad and my dad's two cousins from WI Rae and Kris. Also, I met a cousin I have in Gilbert?! Who knew I had a cousin who lived here with the last name Bonkrude! Cousin Matt seems like good S***.
L to R: Bill, Dad, Eric, Me, Deyonne, Lyle
My Mother in Law came to visit her beautiful curtains will be included on the next post. It has bee a very event ful 2010 and I have really enjoyed seeing all the family:) We aren't planning on having visitors for a while but if you want to we have PLENTY of space and an open door.
