Life can be so fun. This last week was great. Barb my sister and brother in law, Pete came out on Thursday and we packed so much in the 2 1/2 days as we could. Ate at The Windmill Restaurant in Salida, CO. We showed them the local sites. The 13 prisons, the World's Largest Rocking Chair, Goodwill, the school where I work, the Royal Gorge Bridge, Bob's yummy cooking, shopping galore. So many laughs I am still sore from smiling. I hope they enjoyed the chickens. Barb got to get an egg from the chicken coop. We took them up to the Ranch near Monarch Pass. We went on a great horseback ride with Bob's dad. I didn't realize what a great horse back rider Barb was. That was fun. I don't think Pete liked riding horses as much as Barb. Bob's Dad was a great tour guide and showed them all the cool horseshoe art he has made. He even gave them a horseshoe frame he made. I have the coolest Father in law. Saturday, we went to Trinidad to help our cousin Laurie with her "Relay For Life" stuff. That was awesome. Barb and I decorated lots of luminaries for loved ones who were honored and have survived cancer, and for loved ones that have passed of cancer. Pete was on stilts doing balloon animals and magic, and Barb and I did face painting. She is also way better at that then me. We got to be with our Uncle Ray (our dad's, funny brother) and Jodine his wife, and our other cousin Lois. Family is great. I hated saying good-bye to Barb and Pete. But like all good things, it had to end. It was so FUN!!!!!!!! Thank You Barb and Pete for everything. Come back again soon!!
Today was our church's 10th anniversary. We had a picnic at the park for the people. We served the community over 800 sausages, and tons of salads, chips, desserts, lemonade. Bob helped cook those 800 sausages. I took pictures. Our church wanted to show the community Christ is so important in every ones lives. Caring for one another. That's what it's all about. Not the Hookie Pookie. LOL. Bob and I came home and napped for 2 hours. I love naps........zzzzzz
So anyway, I have had a very great summer so far. It is nice not working. It is nice having Bob home, and doing fun stuff with him, and having visitors.
LIFE IS GOOD.....Until next time.........PEACE
