Grandpa Ron meets Anya


Grandpa Ron meets Anya, originally uploaded by MrsBinParis.

My dad and Pam came to visit us last weekend. They stayed for 5 days and we had a ball. Hanging out at the pool, Spikes game, bowling, and lots of eating--we were tired when they left. But it was a really fun visit.

In this economy, having a job is a very good thing, and having a good job you like in a great town full of wonderful friends is a fantastic thing. But even so, I wish we were closer to home.

Maybe we could just erase Ohio, Illinois and Indiana? Or perhaps one of those Chunnel things under the Great Lakes? (OK, maybe not. Just the thought of that kind of terrifies me.)

Now we're saving our pennies again. We'll need a lot of them. Plans are in the works for a trip back to North Dakota for Christmas. (Yes, we know what the weather's like there that time of year. We can handle it.)

Please don't erase Illinois, that would include us. But you could pull our state closer to ND with yours, that'd be cool with us. :)

Yeah, Dee, you're right. Maybe just the parts outside Chicago? Heh.

I'm happy to hear you might be home over the holidays! Even though I know you'll be amazingly busy and will most likely only have time for family. My mother says "Hello" by the way.
