Successful Jamming?

So did you all get your jam made? Who turned out to be the most inspirational jammer and MVP jammer? Greyson managed to sneak a jar home and said it was very tasty. I believe that was from a Traci batch.

It was very nice to be home alone for a couple of days to recover from our travels. Greyson's parents arrived yesterday and took us out to the Skamania Lodge for dinner which was very nice. They have a very nummy desert bar where I sampled the cheesecake, lemon pie and some other chocolatey goodness. We are also talking about going on one of the riverboat dinner cruises one night during the week they are staying with us. They also want to see Mount Saint Helens so we may drive up there next weekend. I wouldn't mind doing a south approach as I have never been that way. Has anyone else driven that route, is it nice? They are staying in there 30' travel trailer with pop-outs. I was amazed how roomy it really was when it was all set up. After traveling with it for awhile they think they might go to a regular motorhome next year. I offered to take the truck off there hands for them. I think if it wasn't such an expensive vehicle (40K) they might have considered it.

Pet news: We left Ada and Miles in the utility room to sleep together last night. When Greyson went to let them out this morning he said that they were curled up together on Ada's bed. Isn't that cute. We will have to take a picture to post.

Girl Talk: The only other exciting news is that I went looking for a strapless bra so I could buy some cute summer clothes. I was having a terrible time getting one that would stay up and fit so I finally reached out for help. One of the nice ladies at Nordstroms came in and measured me and told me what size I really am, and for the first time in 10 years I am finally wearing the right size bra. It is just amazing, it is as if I have started a whole new life. I bought one bra there to be nice and then high tailed it over to Meier & Frank where they were having a buy 2 get 2 free sale. I haven't felt like they looked so good in years.

Work Talk: I am back in the office working (on what it is hard to say). I am waiting to hear what other work they have for me this summer. I hate not knowing just because I can't plan very well.

Well I guess I better get back to "work".
