We just returned from a weekend trip to the Twin Cities and LaCrosse. Got new tires on the Explorer! YAY! No more duh duh duh duh duh as we drive. No more stress for me to listen to it. The 6 hour drive almost killed me. Finally got to see the townhome that Stephanie, Dakota, PJ, Lindsey and the kids have. Very nice. I wanna live in one just like it. It's so big and spacious. And air conditioned. Yes! We got in to Mom and Dad's around 1am Sat morning and Donovan didn't go back to sleep until 3am. Guess what time he got up. Just guess. 6 AM PEOPLE. I don't do 6am and he knows this. Thank goodness my mother in law does 6am. She is a saint for putting up with that child at the hours she did. I thank her so much for that!
On Sun, Kirk's aunt and uncle and cousins from Reno stopped by to visit - they were flying home that night. I walked into the backyard at the inlaw's and Lynnea almost killed herself trying to get off the bench to come see me. I missed her so much! Donovan got drenched in the water hose and had fun with that. The humidity got the better of us and off we went to the Wise/Peterson Abode. We left from there for LaCrosse and got in about midnight (sorry Gramma Patty). Got to spend time with Georgia today and had fun. Saw some old friends and co workers at the store. Then off we were yet again, this time for home. Yeah for us!
I need to buy stock in Hallmark (again). I think I told you all about the bundle of cards I had to purchase last month for birthdays, anniversaries and Father's Day. Last week Lindsey's mom had a heart attack and quadruple bypass surgery. She is doing well now and is home resting. I must call Ally and get their address. My cousin's wife was her ICU nurse for a day, she was really nice to them. That's good. I always said Eric got lucky with Becky. She's good people.
Then Friday we got a call from Kirk's cousin that Grampa H had a mild heart attack that morning and was in the hospital. They were going to put the stints in that night but for whatever reason (that no one knows), they left the catheter to his heart in his leg overnight (yeowch) and finished in the morning. He's doing well and should be home today or tomorrow. By the by, I don't think you can call ANY heart attack "mild". Just can't do it.
