Yesterday we went to Las Vegas, picked up my brother and went to church. We had never gone to the church in Vegas only our local church in Guadalupita. But, since my brother is now living in Las Vegas, we decided to attend the church in Las Vegas. It was a very beautiful midsized church.
After church we went to a local restaurant for breakfast. I was really looking forward to having the typical scrambled eggs, hash browns and link sausage. Alas! They were out of link sausage so I had to skip that part. The breakfast was good though!
After breakfast, we decided to go to the local VFW hall. We had heard that they held a dance there every Sunday afternoon starting at 1 p.m. We were curious to see how the music was. I was thinking there would be a disk jockey. But to our surprise they had a live band!
We stayed for awhile and danced a few times then left to go shopping at Wal-mart. My brother wanted to purchase a few items. We spent a couple of hours looking and shopping.
Later we stopped at the Dairy Queen for some ice cream cones which really hit the spot as the temperature was 94! Very refreshing!
Now it was time to take my brother home and head home ourselves. On the way home my husband remembered that the Mora street festival was happening and they were having a dance starting just about the time we would be passing by on the way home.
He asked me if I wanted to go and I thought about it and then said no. I am so glad that I did say no because today my legs are so sore from the little dancing we did at the VFW that I can barely do anything! It's been months since we have been dancing! We made a promise to ourselves to go more often so we can get some fun exercise. . . we'll see what happens. LOL!
Today, I am looking out the window at the rain splattering the cabin window and listening to the thunder. I love thunder as long as I am inside.
Also trying to get things organized and clean because my oldest and youngest daughters and granddaughters are coming for a visit this coming weekend!!! YAY!
Our grass is so green from all the rain that we have been having lately. The rose bushes that I transplanted finally caught and are growing! I don't think they will bloom before our first frost, but at least they are growing.
Well, there is my hodge podge of things that are distracting from my sewing. Maybe later this week I can get some sewing done . . . maybe not! LOL!
In the meantime, keep on quilting!
