How the time flies...44º, Sunshine/blue skies..

 It has been almost a week since Bobi returned to her home in Portland and my writing has been non-existent...So I will try doing a recap of the last two weeks.

After our day trip to Tri Cities, first thing in the morning was a soak in the hot tub before breakfast, then days of planning, prepping and cooking meals...Bobi made "Schwarma Chicken," and found  a recipe for Naan flatbread for me to make, (since I love playing in the dough)...I did the kneading, she did the cooking in a very hot dutch over...It was so delicious that we used the extra Naan for individual pizza's the next day...When we weren't cooking, and eating, we spent time getting our steps in and Rusty worked away in the garden and at his house in Enterprise.

One day was devoted to "Ace," as he was in dire need of a haircut and bath...That brought up the fact that Bobi needed a haircut, I needed a haircut, Rusty needed a shave/haircut and we all needed a shower!..Probably more info than anybody wanted...In our spare time we played cards and visited about days gone by, and the things we did as a family...Boating, camping, hunting, holidays etc...It was rainy and cold, so very little time was spent outside.

That brought us to Sunday, Pam joined us for a lamb chop dinner and card playing afterward...Bobi and Ace headed back to Portland on Wed. and Rusty and I got back into our routine and with the warmer weather we have been killing weeds, mowing lawn and enjoying the sunshine...Hugs To All...OWAV:)

Great way to start a day.

So proud of haircut.

Family Week...40º Sunny

 Thinking back, it is hard to remember what we did, and now the week seems like it was only a day!.. Bobi  and Ace arrived on Tuesday, Wednesday we settled into somewhat of a routine.

Thursday, Bobi and I saw a break in the crazy spring weather, left at daylight on a trip to Tri Cities Washington, where the closest mall is located...

 Neither of us really like to shop anymore but out of necessity, (bra shopping) we took the opportunity to shop together...Roads were great, breakfast at Weston was served hot, tasty and  inexpensive!.. The mall experience was, as expected...Clerks are nearly nonexistent, most dressing rooms closed, bathrooms hidden in a far corner and the checkout station at the entrance of the mall, which in a way was good...We paid for our 10 bra's, (all on sale) 5 each and escaped that crazy world...Bobi did an expert job of driving, we only had to turn around/backtrack twice before we were on the road to Tollgate and dinner. (It was also good, but expensive.)..We laughed a lot, swore a few times and agreed that it had been a good day.

Rusty and Ace were happy to see us back home...For the next few days, Bobi, Ace and I walked, getting our steps for each day, Rusty worked on his house in Enterprise and we got together for dinners and cards...Cooking together, trying new recipes has always been part of our family time...to be continued, with photos...Hugs to All...OWAV:)

Family time...42º cloudy/sunny

This week has been spent working, playing, cooking and talking...Both of my kids are here and we make the most of out days together...That being said, blogs are few and far between.

Remember, voting day is right around the corner, please vote, so we can have a working judge for the next 6 years...Hugs To All....OWAV:)
