today was oober exciting and fun!  i got to meet Jenn (owner of Inspiration-Lane) all up close and personal-like   she’s in Phoenix (only 3 hours away) this week dog-sitting for her sister-in-law, so the kids and i went to visit her!  lord knows we’ll probably never be this close again, so it was an opportunity we couldn’t pass up.  the kids went swimming in the pool, we went to chili’s to eat, and then i took her souvenir shopping for the family.  the first shop we went to had these really kewlio gawdy chickens, lol!

JD got a scorpion paper weight, roo & nicky both got a necklace with feathers on it.  i got a ring, and jenn bought me a leather bracelet with a dolphin on it – despite protests, lol.  i also got a little something for jonathon and jordan   the second shop we went to she found all kinds of things to get for her kids, but i’m not going to list them out – i don’t want to ruin the surprise.  suffice it to say that i told her i wanted a phone call and/or pictures of the kids’ reactions to their gifts, LOL  JD ended up with a blinky-name key chain, nicky got a sheriff’s badge with his name on it, and caroline got a beaded bracelet with her name on it.

we had a great time with her – she’s just as nice in person as she is on the phone, and so fun to hang with!  we were sad when we had to leave and come back home   once we get to GA we’ll be about 7 hours apart so maybe, just maybe, we can get another visit in
