Pines in the Prairie Weekend


This past week we traveled our way out to our daughter and son-in-laws farm. Bob was working so it took us a few days to get there so he could make calls on the way. Todd and Kim had a CEF Directors retreat so we had the privilidge of babysitting!!! We got there Thurs evening. Bob left Fri morning to go call on some more customers, and I stayed at the house. Friday morning I went out on a limb and went to work out with Kim and a friend of hers. At first I wasn't going to go, truth be told I didn't think I would be able to keep up with these young girls. Kim talked me into going and I am glad I did. Kris is a very nice, fun person. Made working out not so much a chore!! It was a challenge don't get me wrong, but I survived!! Kris designed a circuit type workout, one minute stations. That helped a lot, you can do anything for one minute....right?!?! It helped me when I wanted to quit, smile. So that is how I started my day there.

Todd and Kim left then Bob came home and our weekend was on its way. We had a wonderful time with the boys. They played a lot of b'ball in the dining room, wrestled with grandpa, kicked pine cones outside, checked out their fort and just had a good time relaxing. The boys had a good time drinking hot chocolate with grandpa. The weather was gorgeous on Sat and Sun. Hard to believe cuz now it is 14 below and dropping!!!!! The wind chill is 40 something below, pretty crazy!!! This week we are off to SD, no grandchildren there, sigh, just work. I am just so very thankful that I can go along and we can have this time together!!!
