Sunday February 8th
It was another rainy and cold day. Grandma went to the movie with her friend, Karen. They saw “Taken”. I stayed home and worked on the flat Stanley book.

Monday February 9th
It rained and there is snow on the mountains. We went to the library twice and I did some work on the Stanley book. Grandma went to a water aerobics class in the evening.

Tuesday February 10th
It finally stopped raining! The sun was out but when I checked on the internet it was warmer in Milwaukee than it was here. Grandma went walking and I stayed home and made supper. It’s called Mexican Fiesta and Grandma says that it’s 5 star. I guess that means that she really likes it.

Wednesday February 11th
I went golfing at Emerald Canyon golf course with Karen. When we arrived at the course at 7:30 it was 36 degrees but after the sun came up over the mountains it warmed to about 60. On the way home we stopped at Papa Murphy’s and got a pizza. After we made the pizza we realized that we didn’t have a pizza cutter so Grandma cut it with a scissors’. It still tasted good.

Thursday February12th
We spent the day cleaning the house because we were having company for dinner. We had BBQ’ed baby back ribs, pasta salad and baked beans. For dessert Grandma made banana split torte. We used the coasters that you gave us for Christmas and everyone had to see who’s picture they had.

Friday February 13th
I woke up with a cold. I think that I caught it from Ryan when I talked to him on the phone. Grandma went to her water aerobics and I took the car in for an oil change. On our way to the Aquatic Center we saw two coyotes’ trotting down the street that our house is on. In the afternoon we went to see the movie “Gran Torino”. Grandma had a coupon so we got in free and got a free bag of popcorn. The movie was very good. When we got home Grandma was excited because we got a valentine from Ryan & Aaron. They had recorded a message in the card.

Happy Valentines Day everyone!!
Tonight we are going to a Valentines Day dinner/dance at the Elk’s Club. Tomorrow we are going to a dinner show in Laughlin, NV. With our friends Al and Karen. Just one week from today we have to go to Las Vegas to pick you up for your vacation. We can hardly wait. We will have a lot of fun things to do.

Now, Here’s Grandma!
Well all my classes I took during Spring Frenzy paid off. I won a $25 gift certificate to Herbal Emporium. I got hooked on the water aerobics and have gone to a few more classes, it really makes me feel good when I get done. I also ordered a DVD for Tai-chi exercise. Hope I like it as much as the class. Wishing you all a very Happy Valentines Day. I Love and Miss you all. Sending Big hugs & kisses!!
