Weekend stuff

The boys got a huge surprise when K walked in the door on fri afternoon LOL...I hadn't told them she was coming home then so it was a nice surprise :o)  We drove up north to my mums and stayed there overnight...My oldest sis lives only 3 doors along from mum and she came over on the sat morning...All her pics from america were on her digital camera and i sat and looked through them all...Said for her to email me some but she said no...Don't think she really knows how to use the internet much LOL...She had some stunning shots of the Grand Canyon...They took a helicopter day trip to it...The helicopter took them right down to the bottom and i am so jealous...I would love to see the grand canyon at some point...Then my mum said she would like to go rafting down it!!!!...So there's an idea for her 75th next year although not over there but bit nearer home...She loved the glass birds and K had bought her a glass dolphin :o) My younger sis came over with her 3 on the sat too and K got her pressie from my mum and 2 sisters...They had clubbed together and bought her a beautiful Hot Diamonds silver watch :o) 

We came back late yesterday afternoon and i wished i had a camera with me and was able to stop to take a pic of the wind farm we see on way home...It looked pretty against the dark sky...I drove M & K to the gig they were going to...We thought it was numbered seats but apparently it wasn't...They did get really good seats and thoroughly enjoyed it...K phoned to say it was finished so i went down to pick them up...When i got there M had decided he wanted to stand and wait for the group at the back door LOL...After standing for an hour they still hadn't come out and finally one of the blokes said it would be at least another hour before they appeared...A lot of the people waiting decided to give up and just go home...That included my 2 which i was glad about as i was freezing cold and desperate for the loo by that time LOL...Still i am surprised M was willing to stand and wait for over an hour like he did :o) I used to do the same and got quite a few autographs that way including meeting Meat Loaf and getting him to sign my programme :o)

She's away with far more bags than she came home with LOL...I had got her a pile of stuff like i have said in previous entires...I gave her the fur throw as she was admiring them in the shop and i didn't want her to go buy one herself...G is going out soon to see Wallace and Gromit with his worker and on tues he should be going to the football match with him...Before i go well done to all those who have been nominated in the Vivi awards...I didn't nominate or anything as i found it a bit too confusing as am still relatively new to this journal lark but good luck to everyone i know...A big thank you to Sandra for siggy tag she did for me and also big thank you to Sara who has made me several new dragon ones...All of which you will be seeing in this space for next few days :o)  Am missing K already but will see her in 2 weeks all being well...Oh she's also found herself a boyfriend <ggg> He was back home for weekend too and his mum was grilling him ROFL...Am pleased she's found herself a nice fella but it's early days yet........Toodle pip tc xx

Great sig :-)  Glad they had a good time at the gig - that's part of the fun waiting backstage for them!!  Well done M for staying there for an hour.  Such a shame he wasn't rewarded - maybe next time huh?  Glad your mum had a good birthday
