Thanksgiving Week

This picture is of our back yard which we have been working on since we had a landscaper dig out some shrubs and plant this new. Then we put together the water fall and the pots on the brick posts.

Well on Monday of this week we golfed with our next door neighbors who are from Oregon and have to go back as they are not fully retired yet. We had a great game and improved our score so that is a good thing.

Besides the daily aerobics and water volley ball we do manage to work in a few more activities such as grocery shopping and laundry and etc. but the days do fly by.

Thanksgiving day we had dinner at my sisters and of course had lots of food. She loves to keep our family tradition and fix all of the food dishes that our mother always made. We all have so much to be thankful for and had a real nice day. It was our first Thanksgiving in AZ.

Hope this finds all our family and friends well. Love Barb and Jerry

Weekly Update

Well as you can see by this picture AZ finally got some rain a whole .03 tenths of a inch. Their normal rain fall for a year is 7 inches and so far they have only got 3 inches this year. We had a dark cloudy day and thunder and lighting early am but not much rain in those clouds. But Ark and Saw thought they needed a umbrella just in case.

Well last week we golfed 9 holes on monday and 18 holes on Wednesday our scores are improving and we are having fun now that from our lessons we know what we are suppose to be doing.

We added a water fall to our back yard as you can see in the picture. We have been working on getting our back yard to look more like the southern sceen more cactus and big rocks and flower pots and etc.

Hope this finds all our family and friends well and happy.

Love from Barb and Jerry

Time Flys Nov11

Here it is November 11 and still in the low 90's or high 80's Ark and Saw as you can see are cooling off in the freezer. But of course they don't want to get completely frozen but would like some cooler temps. The news says it is a record breaking October and November for hot weather. We feel sorry for our family and friends that have started to have winter already where they live.

We have been busy going golfing. I had my best game ever on Nov 8th I have marked that on the calendar. However Jerry was frustrated with his game. Oh well we will have good days and bad days. We only have one more lesson.

We went to a Hee Haw country western music jubilee put on by talented individuals her in our Sun Bird development where we live. The individuals volunteer to do this and the proceeds go for the golf course improvements. My sister Diselle and friends Bob and Corky joined us for the evening.

Don't know what all we keep busy with but the days seem to fly by.

Hope this finds all well with our family and friends. Take care.

Love Barb and Jerry
