MOVING ON AND CATCHING UP

Wow! How time flies!! In a nutshell: Devin's mom and dad came to visit.....was a WONDERFUL time and so good to see them! The weather cooperated and we got to see some sights. I am hoping they had just as good a time as we did and am hoping they will be visiting us much more often....LAND IS CHEAP here and the weather is good, hint hint. I travel so poorly no matter the mode of transportation. I think National Geographic was published just for me. I did finally muster up the courage to trek to Granbury TX and see my kids (grand)......all three of them!!!! The trip down was excruciating, back was not too bad. It was so worth it, the time there was exciting and fun, I loved the visit with Patrick and Natalie, their home is beautiful, warm and happy. I am so proud of them and my grandkids.....they are growing, so fast. They have wonderful personalities, so different from each other but reflective of mommy and daddy. I have no doubt they will be wonderful as they grow.
Ian will be graduating HS JUNE 4......hard to believe, hopefully he will stick around at least a couple of years and take advantage of the NM U that is right around the corner from our home. No matter what he decides to do with his life, college can only help! We are planning a tent BBQ out back on our 1/2 acre...we are inviting all who may read this or receive a grad announcement. Always room here, even if we get crowded, always room!!!
We have great plans (still) for the farmette, but slow in progress. Watching the home channels of "do it yourself" has made us realize it will be years before this is our "home" . So, for now, the carpet is up, the bathroom is half painted, the seeds are here waiting for spring, we have inherited an array of outside kitties and life is good! Happy St. Valentine's Day to all I love.......to be continued.
