...I'm back! So since the plane didn't leave on Sunday, they changed to the flight to Monday night of all things! Why they couldn't fly out in the morning is beyond me! So in the end I still missed Grandma's birthday! But I went to Grand Forks early and did some shopping and sat at Panera bread for a while. Why is it hard to fill up time when you have it??? Finally got to the airport and the flight left on-time and was quite uneventful except for the man who sat beside me and talked the whole entire way.... Most of it was interesting!
Got to PHX and Jayme's and Wayne's had left Jayme's truck at the airport for me. Found it no problem and headed out to find the family! And all went great! Thank Goodness. I do get quite frustrated with the US gas pumps that have to have zip codes, and since our postal code doesn't work they try and make you prepay. Like I have any idea how much money will fill up Jayme's truck! Guess that's what I get for living up here! LOL Got to Jayme's around and midnight was very glad to see them and Wayne's!
Tuesday, we went to pick up Grandma for breakfast. She was quite surprised to see me! (But she hid it well!:) Had a yummy breakfast and Ihop and then said goodbye to Wayne and Tiff! At least I got to see them for a couple hours! Back to A. Jan's to work on a scrapbook of memories we were planning to make for Grandma, only that Jess and I sat outside enjoying the warm sun till the rest got there! A. Rita, Kim, and Heather finally showed up and we got busy scrapping! Was a great afternoon! Then Heather left to go pick up Brent, Renata, Ava, and Emma. A. Rita and Kim went to break the news to Grandma that she had more family coming to celebrate the week with her!! Jayme, Jess, and I went to Caraba's for supper!
Wednesday, we were off to Heather's for a ladies brunch. So was all of us and 2 of Grandma's snowbird friends. Had a very scrummy quiche, cinnamon rolls, fruit platter.... After that was done we spent a few hours just sitting out in the sun! Was SOOO Awesome!! Later on we went and played mini golf with Grandma, then to U. Randy's for supper and to work some more on the scrapbook. I went to Heather's for night since Jess had to work Thursday. Heather and I stayed up till 3 AM catching up!
Thursday, slept in and was sitting at breakfast when I realized I was supposed to be heading for the airport and my hair wasn't even combed! So flew around and A. Jan and A. Rita took me. Got there in plenty of time so that was good. Just was sad to leave the warm sunshine! Flew home with a couple from Altona, so was glad to know that there would at least be someone in Grand Forks to help me if the vehicle didn't start!! Landed and went to find the car, and believe me it was cold and windy!! Couldn't believe it, but the car started!! Boy was I glad! So went and filled up gas and let it warm up while I waited for Erica's flight to come in!!
That's all for now!
