Today is the Open House for the park. Martin puts it on every year to try and sell the remaining lots that's for sale.. It seems this year turn out is lower than normal but I guess it's the economy.
We grilled out hotdogs and had lunch outside today.
We had our place open too but only one couple has stopped by so I guess there's not a lot of interest in buying this year.
Today has been a beautiful day with sunshine and 70 degree temps.. Here's hoping our winter is over..
I know that East Tenn got about 2.5 inches of snow.. Danny was out of school today..That's good for a long weekend.
The park had their craft fair on Tues so that was fun.. Then on Wed we tried something new.. We had our first pool scramble. I decided to sign up so we'd have enough to play and I ended up tieing for first play among the girls.. It was so much fun. There were 6 girls and 6 guys and we played in teams of two.. I'll sign up to play again. I don't play often so we all know it was the guys I was paired with that carried me. Still it was fun. Going to the dance tomorrow night..

Happy Birthday Molly
Molly turned one on New Years Day.. She's become a real joy.. she still has her moments but then don't we all.
How can anyone deny this face
It's a new year
Happy New Year Everyone.. Hope the beginning of the New Year was wonderful for everyone.
The park here had a party so I went for a couple of hours. Saw friends (that I see just about daily) heard some music and had a blast.. Reid stayed home with the girls (what a wonderful excuse to have) Fireworks were going off all over the valley so that was keeping Molly running from one window to the other. She handled them a little better than she did on July 4th.
Our weather has cooled. It's been drizzly and cool the last two or three days but we can't complain cause this has been a much better winter than the last three..
This month I'll stay busy with dance a couple days a week. Bible study and next Tues is the Ladies Birthday Luncheon which I'm hosting with Rita. That will be fun can't wait for that..We also have a park craft show and my office work.. Something going on every week to keep me busy.. This winter is flying by.

Merry Christmas
I've said that dozens of times today.. It brings a smile to my face.
We had a great lunch on the patio and the girls are quietly playing with their new toys and chew bones. The weather is 85 degrees and sunny and that's wonderful.....but the front is headed our way and will be here early in the morning. Tomorrow will be almost 30 degrees cooler than today.
So far this winter is better than the last three years as far as warner temps and sunshine.. and we like that.
Steph worked yesterday and is sleeping today. we talked last night for a while.. She thought last night that her heat might be going out, hope that's not the case.
Danny texted me earlier.. he didn't have any plans today but he's got ball tournaments this week.
That's all so I'll say it again Merry Christmas.

Dec 2012
Where did Dec go.. I really thought I had posted this month but it looks like I haven't..the weather has been beautiful since Thanksgiving so I guess I just got busy and didn't blog anything..
Now Christmas is just days away and we're enjoying some Christmas activities.. Last Friday we had our Christmas pot luck at the rec ctr with some games, great food and Christmas Carols. Tonight was our park golf park parade which I love to do but once again I have a head cold/allergy thing going on and I'm not feeling great, so instead of riding in the parade I stayed at the house and waved at them as they went by..
We had a cool front pass through this week with a couple of days of strong wind and gust and then the temps dropped.. My allergies started bothering me when the wind started on Wed and then the sneezing and stuffy head. I hope it's over soon.
Molly is playing with her toys and having a great time with them while Lady is sitting here looking at me growling so she much want to go out (but she just came inside)
so Merry Christmas everyone.

Happy Thanksgiving
Hey I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving.. I'm thankful that the sun has popped out today even if it's only for a little while. I'm thankful for family and friends and even when we aren't close to you we're never really far away.
We're going out for our dinner tomorrow since most of our friends aren't back yet.. A lot of people are heading back to the valley later this season it seems.
My fruit didn't produce too well this year.. My tangerines are a bust but at least I'm getting some oranges and grapefruit even though they are small they are still sweet.
We've had some strange weather.. warn but the sun want come out and stay out.. We've had mostly clouds for well over a week. At least it's calm and warm.
Hoping to get in some day trips the next couple of weeks.. We want to go to Don West Flea Market and to the Island.. We'll try and pick a day that's warm, sunny and calm.. but getting all three is hard to do..

Nov is here
It's Nov.. The park has gotten busier. More people are showing up each day.
College Basketball is starting.. Go Duke..Go Lady Vols..
I must tell you that we rebounded nicely in our weather since last post.. We've had mid to high 80's for the past week and it's been sunny with a nice breeze.. I did hear from Reid that a cool down is coming on Tues with highs only in the 60's hopefully it will be sunny and calm so it wont be to bad.. We know Reid is watching for any long term bad weather patterns.
This is the first week of activities for the park and I've had meetings, a luncheon, a breakfast, checked out line dancing at the park next door, hosted a hotdog and chili cookout and it's only Thurs.
I enjoy it so much though.. Doing a little walking and biking too.. My knee has been hurting some so I don't want to over do it so I rotate the biking and walking.
That's it for today
