Going Home...

Grandma Bowns passed away on Saturday morning and the funeral is on Thursday. We are leaving to go home when I get off work on Tuesday afternoon. We will go to Mesquite, Nevada, stay the night there and then go the rest of the way on Wednesday. Then on Sunday we will drive all the way back to LA. It's not going to be a very long trip but at least there is a weekend involved so I get more than three days. The company I work for is great and they pay three bereavement days, so I don't have to use my paid days off. And they don't ask too many questions.

I am so excited for my scrapbooking order to show up. I got Chrissy some stickers for a scrapbook she is doing for her dad that shows their cattle ranch in each season of the year. And she has a son that is obsessed with John Deere tractor things and I found a few John Deere stickers for his pages. It should get here today so I can take them with me this week.

The weekend of the 13th-15th, we are going to Arizona to see Alden's brother and his family. And mostly the trip is for me and Amy to go scrapbooking for my birthday. The store in Mesa gives you 20% off your entire purchase the month of your birthday. And it gives Amy a chance to get out of the house without her kids and get some scrapbooking done. She has four very active boys.

I probably won't post again until I get back next Monday.

Until next time...
