Random Tidbits
4th of July
This past 4th of July weekend Adam and I went to Flagstaff and met up with the Marshall Clan. It was a lot of fun. We drove up Thurs after work and stayed at a hotel there while Dick and Marlene stayed in their new RV up the road. (As an aside, if I've never mentioned that RV to you before, this thing is nicer than most apartments I've seen!!)
Anyway, Thurs night we had a nice dinner with the parents and then picked Jason up at the airport. We called it a night after that since we'd been up since 5am. Fri was the actual holiday so we got up to see the 4th of July parade, at Dick and Marlene's request. It was a cute parade, but really really long!! So we left before it ended and got some pizza and beer.
That night we had a picnic at the RV park. It was good food... and then Jason dropped the big bomb (no... not a fart, sickos!). He announced that he's resigning his commission in the Air Force and joining the Army. No joke! We're not sure what he's going to do, yet, but we know that he's excited and that the Air Force wasn't for him... so... yay for him! He goes off to Warrior Transition Course this fall.
Saturday we went to Sedona... that's where I really wanted to go. We had a nice lunch and then split off and did our own things... Dick slept in the park, Marlene went shopping in the tourist trip of uptown Sedona, and us "children" went hiking at the Bell Rock Vortex. It's supposed to be where all the positive energy in the world meets up in the same place and it's supposed to have spiritual healing powers... I don't think it worked for me. =)
We had a nice dinner out in downtown Flagstaff that night (sushi... yummy) and then the kids went "out on the town." =) Jason kicked our asses at billiards (I think because we were drinking and he wasn't).
Sunday morning we got up... a little hung over... and went to church with the parents. The guest pastor there gave a 26 min sermon!! OUCH!! Adam and I were thinking about leaving but Marlene wanted to stay so we stayed. It was painful, though. Then we had a fat Mexican lunch and drove back to the 115 degree weather in Phoenix. =(
So... that's our weekend in a nutshell. Exciting, right?!?!?!? hahahaha... no, not really... but I wanted to share anyway. No one said you had to read it!! Love ya!! =)
