Nevada Trip

We are heading out to Nevada tomorrow. We will be staying with Bruce's aunt and uncle in Dayton. We will be home on Saturday with lots of money -(crossing my fingers). And of course we will have to stop at Baldini's - one of our favorite places.

Wish us luck !!!!

A Walk Down Memory Lane !!

Teresa started this one... I don't think mothers should play though, lol... they can dig up too much dirt... (heheh j/k mom)..

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.It's actually pretty funny to see the responses.

*If you leave a memory about me, I'll visit your blog and leave a memory of you!

Marcoe Family Picnic

We went to the annual Marcoe Family Picnic Reunion at Spanaway Lake in the Tacoma WA area. Derrah, Marissa and Caleb went too. Here are some pics... This picnic has been going on since Gramma/Mom Wanden was a little kid... There will be more on the Marcoe Family Website soon...

Out Of Town

We are heading up north tomorrow, going to Bruce's dad's. He turns 90 years old tomorrow, he is active and sharp minded still, what a blessing. We will leave in the morning and stop at Ivar's in Mukeltio. That is where all the brothers and sisters gather for b-days. We will stay over night a couple nights then head to my folks on Friday for the weekend. The Marcoe Family Picnic is this coming Sunday (13th) and we will head home after that. Weather has been gorgeous and is supposed to stay that way ALLLLL week, AND we are hoping this is just the beginning of a

longggggggg summer !! Will report after the weekend.

It is one of my babies birthdays !! Christy turns 34 today :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTY, I love you !

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

WELLL what an experience to go take a shower and your water heater isn't working properly. No hot water, no breaker thrown, hmmmm your guess is as good as mine !! So Bruce called the manager cuz our water heater is only 4-5 years old. At least maybe the manager can give us a name of someone to call about it. I dislike things that break down easy and are needed the most -- Cars / Washers / Dryers / WATER HEATERS !!!

Trip to Las Vegas

Bruce had a convention that the state paid him to go to. Bev and Scott met us there and we had a real nice time. I rented a scooter so I wouldn' t have to talk so much and so my legs didn't ache at night and bring me to tears.
We went over to Casino Royal next door to Harrah's here is Bruce ...


Thursday evening after Bev and Scott got there we went to Toby Keith's I love this bar and grill and had dinner. I had a club sandwich, Bruce had the country fried steak, Bev had a bbq burger and Scott had the chili burger, all were good. We were going to have a fried twinkie there but we forgot :(

Then on friday we took the free bus over to Sam's Town. Here we are on the bus...


And some pics inside, they have a nice area inside that looks like outside. It is acclimated to 72 degrees and it has stuffed animals...



I didn't want my picture taken with the bear ...


And we ate at the buffet there and it was good - it was Friday so it was Seafood and fish fry. All done, Scott having after dinner coffee and Bruce having pie ...


And Scott wishing in the waterfall that'd he'd never come, haha ...

and we are resting before catching the bus back to Harrahs.



Looking into the casino from our resting place...
