Gathering of friends

Tonight was a potluck dinner. Since there was no dinner in the dining hall several of us decided on a pot luck.

There was tons of good food. Wanda made home made chicken and noodles, there was bread roles, corn, fruit, corn and several really yummy salads, a pineapple upside down cake (by me) and a apple cobbler.

If anyone left hungry it’s their own fault as the food was great and i ate too much as always! It was a great night filled with fun and laughter.

Later in the evening Wanda, Cora and myself sat outside at Cora’s to visit a bit more. Well until the skeeter’s chased us back to our own rigs.

Spending the weekend with Family

We spent this entire weekend with our kids and grandkids! Saturday we went to our son Tyson home and i played with my precious grandchildren while hubby helped our son work on his water line. Of course hubby couldn’t resist playing with our precious jewels in between working. When our grandchildren are around it’s hard not to donate all our attention to them.

Saturday evening our grand daughter came home with us to spend the night.

Hailey loves to swim and spend time in the hot tub. Of course she doesn’t have to twist grandma’s arm either.

On Sunday the kids came to us and we had a great day. The weather has been great! Toby enjoyed playing in the rocks and on our wonderful campsite that has a full pad of concrete!

I fixed a big pot of chili and it was a great weekend of enjoying family time. Although i have to admit i was exhausted at the end of it.

Dentist appointment

We got up early today and headed to the dentist office. Hubby has more dental work to be done before we head out for the winter. After hours of sitting and reading my book while waiting on hubby. We headed to get some plumbing supplies for Tyson’s house.

The feeling was starting to come back and so we decided to go out for a late afternoon or early evening meal. We went to our favorite place. Yep Chinese!

Then a trip to Wal-mart was also needed and by then it was time to head home as hubby was starting to hurt.

The rest of my evening was spent visiting with friends.

Mifi card!

We got up this morning and needed to run some errands. I have been debating getting some type of internet card. Esp for the times when we don’t have wifi. I have been doing some research and finally decided on the mifi card from Verizon. Unfortunately unlimited is not available anymore and I'm limited to 5gb a month. That means i have to be very careful with my usage. So far it’s working great. We love that we can use it as our own wifi and several computers can be hooked up at the same time and it doesn’t seem to pull the speed down with 2 computers.

After numerous errands and having Chinese for lunch we came home and our son Tyson brought one of the atv’s to us. Our evening was spent just relaxing.

Illinois bound

We got up this morning and got things around. We were sitting in the parking lot of the Big Store to get our tires on the 5th wheel. Doug the guy doing the work didn’t arrive until around 9 am and to top it off it’s raining. Finally around 11 am all the work was done and we were on our way. Luckily for us it wasn’t a hard rain and it stopped about Houston, Mo.

We arrived in Illinois around 4 pm and starting getting things setup. I went to dinner at the dining hall, hubby stayed home and finished getting his work done.

I spent several hours seeing friends and catching up on what they have been doing. I love convention time and seeing friends and making new ones. It’s good to be back.

Heading to Convention

We took the 4 wheelers back to illinois yesterday and today has been spent cleaning and packing things up. Tomorrow we get new tires on the trailer and then were bound for Illinois for convention in Oct. Looking forward to seeing family and friends.

Departure still unknown

It’s September! The summer has went by really fast. It has finally cooled down to wonderful temps! We checked on the truck tires and they still are not in so until they arrive we do not have a departure date. Were basically in limbo until we can get the truck and trailer tires on.

We are getting ready for the big holiday weekend. At first we thought it might be a slow one but today the rigs are rolling in.

We went into town today and did some grocery shopping and had lunch at Ryan's. On the way home it started raining. It rained the rest of the evening. That is okay because it's been very dry here and we are need of some rain.

Other then not really much happening .. just some relaxation time .. hope you all have a safe and wonderful labor day weekend
