John and I celebrated 23 years of marriage on March 9th. As I reflect back on everything we have done it seems like we have been married much longer. We have taken some awesome trips and had lots of wonderful experiences.
Last weekend we had planned to get back to our place at Cedar Blue but found out the owner of the RV park we live in purchased two very small morkie puppies and was going to have them shipped. Well there was no way we could let those puppies get shipped so we made a road trip to Missouri to pick them up. It turned out we were headed to the area my parents had retired to so I was anxious to see the area since it had been 10 years since our last visit. Wow, the road system had changed when we arrived. There is a nice major highway through the area now which speeds up getting around I'm sure. We drove by my parent's old home (pictured in blog) and were pleased to see it had not been torn down and replaced. In fact the new owners have made some nice changes to the home. They enclosed the garage and replaced the deck with a nice new one with pretty trim. They also put in a screened porch under the deck. The property was well taken care of.
We spent the night in a hotel in Lebanon, Missouri and picked up the puppies the next morning and oh my were they adorable. They were 2 lbs each of fluff. They had had a bath so smelled really sweet but let me tell you, the time we arrived home they smelled sweet but not a good kind. Those little girls pooped their way home! They traveled so well though. The only time we heard from them was when they pooped and wanted their crate cleaned out. Their names are Heidi and Bonnie and are just little sweethearts. Our girls sniffed them out and then didn't seem much interested in them. It may be their little size. The little girls just wanted to play with our girls but our girls didn't know what to do with them. Hopefully when the pups grow a bit they can start to play together.
Today I'm just sticking around the RV doing laundry and enjoying the pretty day - although it will be windy. Tomorrow morning we head back to Cedar Blue for the weekend. Looking forward to the weekend even if it will be on the cool side and may be wet. Next weekend my sisters and brother-in-laws arrive for a short visit. We are all gathering at a local hotel where we have lots of space to visit and plan to do some sightseeing. Can't wait. April also brings John's 60th birthday and he wants to stay at a hotel with the girls. I also am planning a party for him. Toward the end of the month we are going to house and pet sit for our friend, Priscilla for a week while she visits family in California. So a busy April. Nothing much planned then until this Fall.
