I am at least sitting down to write this blog a couple of days before it is time to write the next one. Bev and I are recuperated after our first visitors of our very own. It was a fast long weekend, but it was great!!
Our first visitors were my sister Angie, her husband Mark, and another one of my sisters, Jodi (who lives in Magdalena, Mexico). They arrived on Thursday and left early Monday morning. Jodi got to Guadalajara at about 2:30 Thursday so Bev and I headed off after lunch and we met Jodi there at about 5:00. Mark and Angie didn't get in until 9:00, so we had time to sit and chat before Mark and Angie arrived and we headed off to the famous burrito restaurant just down the road. Nothing like burritos at 10:00 at night to start the visit off right. We got home at about 12:00 and enjoyed a free morning to relax. It was a nice weekend and we really enjoyed the time that we had together. Jodi left at 6:30 on Monday morning so we packed up and left Ixtlan at about 3:00 in the morning. So, after a fast, long weekend, I took a two and a half hour nap on Monday afternoon.
Here's the happy group. (Bev, Regg, Mark, Angie, Jodi)In the meantime, we are sharing the guest house with Tim and Lynette Bahler (Lynette is Jan and Marshall's daughter) and family. So there are 8 extras in the house now as well. They will be here until next Wednesday (the 9th). Thankfully they are very easy to share with.
We haven't heard anything about the house yet. The most recent update, when we got back from the US in the beginning of January, was that it would be open in February, so we are waiting to hear that we can move in. It could be anytime, yet we don't want to get too excited because it could still wind up being awhile. We'll keep you all posted when we hear more.
Keep warm digging out up there and we'll see if we can't send you some of the nice warm sun we have down here.

I missed if there was a prize for being the first visitor? If so... was it a good one ... and will there be more prizes?
Oh, there was a great prize and there just might be more, but you have to come down here and visit to see...
Glad to hear you're enjoying your visitors. Wish it could be us!!
Love ya lots,

wait a minute... was that a little smack talk from Anita. Something about the best yet to come. I don't think she wants to play that game. You better warn her.
The Midwest isn't the only cold place....we are busting pipes all over the place here. brrrr....

So thankful that you all had a great time. But maybe the elderly will get the best prize for being your visitors!!! Maybe we will get to help you move in!!!! Look for ward to being with you soon. Love Dad & Mom
Regg, Where are my tacos at? Seriously, next time you've got Bluffton folk around you've got to send some tacos back. I'm sure tacos are clear for international travel and if they aren't I'm sure any true mexican will understand what a taco emergency is. Now I'm gonna be depressed for like a month.
Saludos a todos
