Went to Phoenix this weekend for Sophie's shower. It was a wonderful time...lots of ladies, laughter, good food and gifts. Ava will be the best decked out little peanut in the valley! Sophie looked lovely...positively glowing! Now THAT'S an original description of a pregnant woman. But so true.
After the shower she went home with Mike and my mother and I went back to her house, after stopping at Sonic for a burger as big as my head. I can't believe I consumed the whole thing, usually it's a burger every 2 years. I have hit my allotment for the next 4 years. Yuck. By 7:45pm me, my mom and my dad were lollygagging in the dining room, trying to stay awake. So we didn't!
Sunday Gary came back from Ajo, and we all went to breakfast. We got on the road by noon and ended up being held up for THREE HOURS between Happy Valley Road and New River Road. The highway was shut down due to a diesel hauling gas flipping over and slipping. I hope nobody was hurt. But 7 hours home...unheard of. I am beat.
