No, no, no. I don't mean she gorged on food like royalty! She went with us today to the Royal Gorge and rode a train along the Arkansas River. She really enjoyed the scenery. And she has been a joy to have around. Last night she beat Rachel and the girls in chinese checkers, and tonight she's going to play scrabble with us. I hope she doesn't cheat.
Tomorrow we will take a trip up into the mountains and have a picnic - then maybe drive up to Woodland Park for the only Blue Bell Ice Cream stop in Colorado. (Does Muddy like ice cream?)
I'll put up pictures as soon as I get them off the camera. Thanks for letting us borrow her for a few days. We'll give her back soon!

I am glad that you are getting to have some precious time with Muddy. If I could only get her to come stay with me in Talbott. It isn't nearly as far or exotic as your house, but it has its own chaos and fun. Enjoy!
Stephen, I can assure you that Mom loves ice-cream! What a wonderful thing it is that she gets to be with you all for these few days and that you get to know her better. She is missed here!
Yeah, or does that mean it's muddy in the royal gorge, wherever that is?
Some will never get it....what a "Muddy" is, I mean, but WE know!
Sounds like she is being treated royally too! How nice! I can tell you that she was soooo excited about this trip.
OK now, don't give her too much attention and fun or she'll never be content to come back here to the rest of us. :)
I concur with the others about her being there and being missed here.
Tell her I said, "pace yourself."
A warning to you guys, she will "scrabble your socks off!" That is the one game that I used to get into with mom and dad. I can still remember playing with them at the kitchen table in Lufkin, Texas. Perhaps that is where I first learned the game. She's the master so just hang on...you're gonna need your dictionary!!
And, Whoa, Does Muddy like ice cream?...yeah buddy.
Hmmm...I think a game of Scrabble and cone of Perkits sounds good about now. :) Inspiring blog.
Well, keep on having fun. Looking forward to the photos and more stories!!
Yes, we ALL miss her - but I am glad for you & your family to get to spend time with her. And, I'm glad for her to get to spend time with you. Do Nice is right - she really was sooo excited about going to see ya'll. Lookin' forward to pics - I'm sure it IS a beautiful place. Love & kisses to you and your family!
"we want photos, we want photos"......:)
I know, I know, you have company right now so I shouldn't be impatient. Looking forward to seeing and hearing more.
