Our Wonderful Weekend

We had some dear friends come and visit us over the weekend, Kevin and Kristen. We had a blast. They came Friday night and stayed tell Monday afternoon. We had some good times. We went on a drive through the Colorado Monument and a walk down Main Street. For Sunday we had Mark's Dad, brother and sister-in-law come for dinner. Michael (Mark's brother) has been staying with us for a little while while he is doing an exchange for dental school here in Grand Junction, so for a month Michael will be here with us, but for the weekend they stayed in Montrose with Mark and Michael's dad while their mom and younger siblings were in Utah, and April (Michael's wife) came down for the weekend too. It was fun to get all together and have some good laughs. We were sad when April had to leave early Monday and then the Kevin and Kristen that afternoon, but we still have Michael, so I guess we can't be all depressed just yet. We will have to wait tell Michael leaves before we can do that. There are a lot of reasons it is nice to have Michael here but one of them is we have a babysitter! Another we don't have as many leftovers go bad in the frige. Needless to say it is nice for us to have Michael here but I know he can't wait to get back home to be with his wife and dog and in his own bed. I think that will happen the second week in March.



As for us we get to go on a little trip to Utah this weekend. Michael will get to housesit. But I am so excited to see my family. I am also hoping to cut some hair when I get there.(Kat, I'm all yours.) We will also be working out some loan stuff for a new explorer that we are going to get. I can't wait. It is a 04' and in amazing condition, we can get it for a GREAT deal and it will last us at least 6 years as a family car, maybe longer. Mark it so excited about the V8 and towing package.
