Karen and Kelly came up for a short visit.....shopping, movies, and eating! Kelly has matured into a lovely young lady from the little girl who used to call me "Donut Lady" way back in those good old "St. Matthew" days when we'd eat donuts while waiting for the boys to get out of school on 1/2 days. Kelly will start California State Univ.- Monterey in the Fall....Good Luck!!!!!! She cheerfully endured endless hours of shopping for "olde lady" clothes and shoes this time around (but somehow she got a few cute things, too!!!)
Olde Pal Beverly, from Chicago, came to visit. We go way way back to Jr. High....can you believe that? We even share a very special memory of trying out for the high school mascot (Oxyvine...the horse). I was the front and she was the rear...we can even do a few of the dance steps if you ask us nicely and give us chocolate. We didn't win....of course it was political...we were definitely the best and still are and we haven't gotten over it and never will. Anyway, Beverly came to visit and shop and eat and tour model homes and eat chocolate and watch movies. We had a wonderful time until one of us came down with "piglet flu" and the visit came to an abrupt end. No time for a picture this time around, but suffice to say we are still breathtakingly gorgeous as we were when we tried out for Oxyvine. Yeah, right. Here are some pictures of my house now that Spring has finally come.
