BUSY WEEK

Time sure does fly when you're having fun! Saturday was really busy, and cold, and wet! We started by going to Jenna's two sets of volleyball games which they won-and it was warm! Then off to the LaCrosse game-we had already missed the first one-just can't be in two places at once. Then there was a short time before Joe's baseball game, which was followed by Mexican food. On Sunday after church, I went shopping with Carrie, Jake and Jenna, and Don stayed home with the other guys. (Jenna and I had already been to the scrapbook store one evening.) The kids made us a wonderful dinner and we said our goodbyes. Monday we had a slow start, but got to Grinnell without difficulty. The fields were really wet along the way and the rivers and streams were out of their banks around Des Moines-all that rain from Saturday. We had dinner with Wilsons and Fitzgeralds and then went to Wilsons to talk. Tuesday Don got his haircut and I went to the bakery to see Suzi and Bill. We went to Heidi's for the evening and took Lucas his birthday gifts. He's also added some inches. He had basketball practice the night before and now he's working on his golf game. We drove to Dubuque yesterday and went to see Don's mother. She sure looks good for a ninety year old! On to Teresa's beauty shop for a haircut. Then in order to fuel our reputations-we visited the new Diamond Jo Casino-very nice! Then, because we needed to do research for our AZ get together this summer, we moved on to the redecorated dog track. They now call it the Mystique Casino. I won at both places. Todays full of errands and tomorrows my reunion-more fun!
