I love my sisters!

I'm so far behind on my blogging!  I've decided to just jump back in with some highlight posts and try to do better in the future. 

In February Warren and I rented a vacation home in Surprise, AZ.  It was a beautiful, large home, owned by a family who lives in Minnesota.  It was large enough to share with friends and family, and we had a wonderful time with those who came.  My sisters and I had a tradition years ago of getting together for Sisters Weekends.  Those special times of visiting, laughter and fun had been put on hold for a few years, but we have revived the tradition! 

They came from three states - Missouri, Montana and Iowa, and we had a blast.  Phoenix really needs to welcome them with a banner at the airport.  They are great shoppers.  : )   Lets just say that all the bargains didn't fit in the suitcases they brought, and they left wearing more layers of clothes than they arrived with...  Good thing it was winter and not summer.  Warren was a great sport, putting up with all us girls and played taxi driver.  He grilled some great meals for us, and put up with a lot of giggles and girlie stuff.

Judy, Joanne and Rhonda found a cupcake shop that had been on the tv show Cupcake Wars.  They brought home a few flavors of cupcakes - INCREDIBLE!  Yum!!! 



We ate at some good restaurants, spent time at the pool and fire pit, and just had a great time together, something we don't get to do very often living so far apart.

Its not a Heidner gathering without a few wild games of Dutch Blitz. 

Girls, thanks for coming.  It was great fun, and I hope you join us next year too.
