Hi again,.... time to write and catch you up on our "happenings"....... we have been working our 3 days a week and actually have had 4 days off in a row.....we really enjoy having these days off. We do not have to work 3 days in a row but usually 2 days and then off a day or 2 and work one....
Father's Day we worked but Megan/Jeff came down to Wichita for a conference they were spearheading for work. They came about the time we were off work so they had dinner with us and visited. It was nice to have them here. They have had a busy week this week... they got possession of their house today! I'm anxious to see pictures of it.... it will be about 15 min. closer to work for them and double the size of the house! Lots more to clean, right? But we are happy for them. They will leave for LasVegas for 10 days to see Jeff's parents and celebrate Megan's 30th birthday on the 7th! Our baby is 30!
This afternoon late we rode with our friends here in the park, John/Patsy to Yoder and met Ron/Nancy for dinner at Carriage Crossing. Carriage Crossing is a wonderful place to eat and all the food is "Amish homemade"... they are noted for their fried chicken and homemade pies! YUMMY!!!! Of course we all left full....it was a great visit.
Bill has been busy weed eating around the park and I have trying to stay cool and sew! I got my "Arizona" placemats done and also finished another small project yesterday. Now I think I might be ready to get started on another project that is a wallhanging from Thimbleberries in 2004! Yes..some of the things I started then and just didn't get finished....Luckily I only have 2 or 3 of those type of projects to get done! I'm catching up on "old things"....
Tomorrow I hope to get some cleaning done for the week as we have to work Friday and Saturday but will be off Sunday, Monday and Tuesday at least...we do not have the July schedule yet.
The weather has been so hot so we have tried to get our running done in the morning and have been almost hibernating in the afternoon.... and complaining about why we are NOT in Colorado in the mountains! But I guess this is good "harvest" weather and the forecast is for dry hot weather.... But it is hot and so Humid!!!! Something we have not been in for a couple of years and we have really noticed it lately! Guess we are getting soft! haha!!!
Well, that is what has been happening with us.....
Until next time!

Sunday evening...catch up time again!
We have had a busy couple of weeks....we have worked some days in a row so that seems longer than usual...... Boy are we glad to turn the "reins" over to the others when our time is up! The park has been steadily full and others coming in and out to fill those spots.
We returned to Wichita today after being in Topeka since last Tuesday. We had our "state camping rally" beginning on Thursday but we had the days off so we went early. We thought we would be able to see Brayden's other ballgames this week but rain washed them both out. We did get to see his game on Saturday morning.
We had a great time visiting and catching up with 52 of our "closest" friends! We had a wonderful week! Bill and I both played in a bean bag tourneyment on Friday afternoon. He won 2nd place out of 10teams! Saturday afternoon we played in a "Joker" (card game) tourneyment and we didn't do so well! Oh well....we had a fun afternoon playing.
This morning after breakfast we went to see Erin/Ryan and kids before we left. Getting one last "grandparent fix"..... not sure when we will see them next...it may be in a month. Lauren finally got her first tooth! When Erin took her to the dr. for a checkup the dr. said she has about 6 ready to come in! What fun that will be!
When we pulled out of the park this am..... we met coming in some friends from Estes park who are doing some traveling this summer! We had not seen them for 2 years! We had a great short short visit and learned they are going to come to Paradise South this January! That will be great!
The day traveling was so nice..no wind and not much traffic..so we made it in good shape with our friends who are here also... John/Patsy.... they are in our camping group and live full time in their motorhome.
So that about catches us up for now....we do not have to work Monday but work Tuesday and Wednesday of this week.
Have a good week!
Until next time!

Our work week begins
Good morning!
Our work week begins after have about 4 days off. We got some things done around here on Thursday and Friday. Saturday morning we head to Topeka to watch the "little ones" while Erin/Ryan went to KC for the evening and spend the night. It was a great weekend and we enjoyed staying with them. They all 3 had changed...Brayden getting taller and more "grown-up"..of course Bryson is now in the -4-5 yr. old in the daycare/preschool he goes too. He was so proud of that accomplishment! Boy it doesn't seem like he is "little" anymore! Lauren has changed in looks some but is crawling and pulling herself up all the time now. She still doesn't have any teeth but they look like they are there. I'm sure they will come in all at one time!
Brayden told me he is reading this blogsite now! And repeated some of the things I had written...so Brayden this is for you! :)
We took the kids over to their other grandparents house to swim late afternoon Saturday and had a great visit with them. We always enjoy spending time with them.
The boys are really good swimmers and Bryson is becoming more confident swimming all the time. They will go to swimming lessons in a couple of weeks. They can probably swim better than their grandma! :) I tried treading with a floatee with them and it was hard to keep my legs moving..so I know I am out of shape for sure!
We had the day off yesterday so we worked around here and I cut out some fabric for my "Arizona placemats"..... by the time evening rolled around we worked on deciding where we are going for sure next winter in the Valley of South Texas. I'm calling today to make reservations.
It has been rather warm here this weekend and today it is to be cooler and a chance of rain... maybe it will settle some of the dust/dirt that is blowing around.
We go back to work today for 2 days and then off a day......
so we had better get ready to go.....almost time!
Until next time!
