So Donna is here on a visit. She is staying with Dad but I kidnapped her for a sister night at my house. Great visit. Sure have missed our talks. Good to have her here…

Weekends

So here we are, a weekend. What am I doing? Working on updating our Word Press version for The Phoenix Real Estate Advisor blog.

What do I want to do? Get my nails done.

What should I be doing? Laundry and finish painting the kitchen before Donna comes, washing windows, all that fun stuff that I hate. (well not the painting)

I am looking forward to Donna’s visit. We have a very busy week planned. I just hope I will be able to participate in all of it. Kinda at a critical place with a couple of my short sale listings with the lenders.

So, Sunday was another great day in the neighborhood! After Church (which was awesome as usual - great sermon - AMAZING music) We met Matt, Jen, Gracie, Tomi and Traci at The Farm. Now if anyone reading this is in the Phoenix area and has never been to The Farm, you are missing a real treat. (click on any picture to view full size - these photo’s were taken by Matt, which is why they are so good!)

The Farm is an old pecan farm in Phoenix at 32nd street north of Baseline. This is an organic farm where they not only have pecan groves, they grow all their other produce organically as well. So if you get a sandwich with any kind of greens, etc, they probably grew them there. There is also a farmers market toward the back, a little cottage with artist’s works for sale and displayed beautifully, a restaurant in the back and a little food “shack” in the front where you can order some great sandwiches - salads - deserts, etc and take outside to eat under the pecan trees. It’s an awesome place with awesome food!

Parking is a little precarious, you have to park across 32nd st and make the trek across to get to The Farm, but the traffic isn’t too bad.

The day we were there, they were having some sort of “event” out back. I guess they have a homeopathic Dr on hand there, and I think they were speaking there that day.

So great fun was had by all! Even Gracie was getting into the spirit of the day!

Had a great Art Fair / Farmers Market last weekend. Pat and Joe came down and spent Friday evening before the big event. We just hung out on the patio and had a great dinner and really nice conversation. While we were out there, a BIG spider, it looked like the wolf spiders we used to get in MI, came running (yes running) across the patio when I was trying to grill! Of course I screamed like a girl, but Jay came to the rescue and stepped on it (gross).

But Pat is worse than me when it comes to spiders. She wasn’t comfortable the rest of the time we were out there. I think she kept waiting for it to come back to life! : D

So, anyway the next morning we went down to Estrella Mountain Ranch for the fair. It was a great event, lots of people. We sold a lot of jewlery! My sister Jen and her friend, Tomi came to the event. Jen bought a couple of pieces then she found these great baubles and bows for Gracie at another booth. They are too cute, and the young woman who makes them is just as sweet as can be.

What Fun!
