Family Time

Well, it is 530pm on a Tuesday, and I am in my jammies ..... and I just completed my grocery shopping!  Yes, that's right!  If you live in or around the Chandler, AZ area, a few of the Walmart stores offer grocery shopping on line - it's terrific!!!   I placed the order for pickup on Thurs, because I have a very busy schedule on Weds and wouldn't be able to shop.   After working all day Thurs, all I have to do is drive to the pickup door, and they put my full order in the trunk....  which reminds me, my son needs to get my two rocks from the trunk first!

Yes, I collect rocks.  My aunt knows this and said "Have I got a rock for you!"  and we loaded them in my trunk. hahahaha  

Life is crazy around here with family in for a visit and such.  Busy with lots of things, but nothing in the way of housekeeping gets done -- which is OK.  I will have the weekend to catch up.






Here's my nephew and my mom on top of the world!   A lookout point along Apache Trail, one of my fav places to stop and peek around.











On the same drive, I got my mom and aunt to pose with Elvis in the Elvis chapel -- the one they used in many many westerns was moved to a location in Apache Junction.





     Thank you, thank you verrrry much!

Family Times

What. A. Day !    Family here - my own plus the people who will be a part of it next April as well! Full house, loads of laughs and sharing and good times!!

But as with all busy families and busy schedules, they couldn't stay as long as they would have liked.  Sure appreciate them taking the time to come up here and visit with my mom.  :)   Love you guys!





After, the afternoon looked a little long - and hot - so we waited out the heat, then took off for Hole in the Rock and Riverview Park.  A little taste of AZ for my nephew, who flies home Sunday.   After all that, we decided we needed dinner.  And wanted something he can't get just anywhere .... so we dined "al fresco" on the patio at Dos Gringos.  Delicious mexican food to end the day .... (and a Corona for me!)
