Dad and Mom made it in Thursday night about 45 minutes late. Their plane left Minneapolis on time but lost it somewhere in route.They didn't look worse for wear though. We left Dad upstairs to handle getting Mom and himself Frappucinos from Starbucks while Mom and I went downstairs to get the luggage. If I hadn't gotten myself a tall peppermint mocha Frappacino while I was waiting for their plane I would have had Dad get one for me too!!!
Mike and Missy came to the house that night and we all had dinner together. Friday morning we got up, ate breakfast and then headed out the door. First stop the coffee shop and then out to Ross's for some shorts for Dad. Actually we hit two Ross and definitely got more than "shorts" for Dad! We stopped at a Mexican restaurant for lunch and then headed out for sewing machine stores. Mom checked out a Bernina (sp) and we also went to a store that carried Jenome (sp), Brother, Singer and others. Wow, did they ever put my little $100.00 (30 year old) machine to shame! After that we headed towards home, but stopped at Radio Shack for a little transistor radio for Dad.
This morning, we left Dad at home to recuperate from the day before (Phil had to work) and Mom and I headed out for a rubber stamp show in Mesa. We decided to forego shows from now on and just find nice shops to go to. Too many women, crowded into a small space does not make an enjoyable experience! After that, we headed over to Chris and Pam's house ( Phil's brother) to go to their daughter Dami's, baby shower. What a great day it was today! Lot's of family and friends getting together to celebrate the impending birth of Addysen Elaine, on or around April 8th (I think???). Missy joined us over there @ 1pm and we left @ 5pm.
Tomorrow Dad, Mom, Missy and I have tickets to see the Chihuly Glass Exhibit at The Desert Botanical Garden. The weather should be great for that too. Phil will be staying home working on the pool! It's getting better but not done yet.
