Happy 51st Birthday Kim!! I can't wait until you get here.
I offered to make Kim a cake but I think she is going to make her own.
James and I went in town today I needed some groceries and James needed some more cement for the fence posts and a thermal coupler for the hot water heater. When James was finished, at least he thought he was, at Home Depot he came over and helped me finish my shopping. As we were leaving Walmart I asked James if he got the thermal coupler? No, he forgot. As we left the Walmart parking lot he turned left and went passed Home Depot. He was going down the road a ways to the plumbing supply store, only they were closed, se we turned around and went to Lowe's. He bought a thermal coupler but he isn't sure it will work for our water heater, but he's going to give it a try.
As we turned on to the road that goes past the Hunsaker's we noticed a dark gray Suburban that looked a lot like Trina's Starla, coming towards us. It was Starla and Ruby was driving! Lola texted me to tell me. She was with Ruby and Darrel. Vernon is a good place for Ruby to practice her driving, if you can stand the bumpy roads.
Back at home Trina was making chocolate chip cookies. They smelled and tasted delicious!
Jared, Kacey, and Charlie are in Arizona. They had lunch at Cafe Rio and then went to visit with grandmother and Dawn. Jared texted me when they left the valley around 4:30 so we expect them here around 8. I texted and told them we would have dinner ready for them. Later Kacey said she was grateful for that text because she didn't want to make one more stop. They have been up and traveling since about 3:30 am.
Darrel & Trina brought chicken thighs to cook and James and I got them the ingredients for the marinade. They were delicious. We also had Busch baked beans, rolls, green beans, and rice pilaf.
Darrel & I tried the whole "slinging" his phone to get the picture on the TV and it worked nicely, so we feel like we are set for the game tomorrow.
I noticed I could buy or ret "Wicked" on Dish on Demand. I decided to buy it because it was only $8 more dollars to buy it. Trina was excited to watch it and Lola and Ruby started out watching it with us until grampa said he was going to go saddle the horses. Away they went outside with grampa and Darrel. A little while later Lola comes in and says, "Apollo tried to buck my dad off and then he tried to bump grampa off." Should I be worried?
After they rode the horses, Ruby and Lola came back in and watched the movie with Trina and me. When it was over I asked them what they thought of the movie. They said they liked it except they didn't think Elphaba should steal Fiero away from Glinda. If you can believe it, they felt sorry for Glinda.
Jared, Kacey, and Charlie arrived a little after 8. Once Charlie warmed up to everyone, she and Lola had a great time playing together. Sometimes Ruby would play with them.
Darrel put on an East coast fireworks show, as it was 9 or so, instead of midnight. It was a lot of fun. Ben & Cayli joined us for dinner and the show.
it's Kim!
Happy New Year!
Good friends who almost look like sisters
