Sharon and Jane Visit Scottsdale - September, 2010
 | Sisters Sharon and Jane came out for a glorious week at my house! |
| This was just one of the many tables set for all of our fabulous meals! |
 |
 | Neighbor Susie came for dinner and fun and games the night they arrived. |
| Here we are enjoying one of my favorite recipes, Beef Stroganoff. |
 |
 | The next day we went to Julie's 1st grade classroom in Phoenix to see her in action with all of her 33 students. |
| That evening Susie met us for happy hour at one of our favorite restaurants, the Rokerij. |
 |
 | Here
we are the following evening in Susie's "martini themed" kitchen
waiting patiently for Susie's brother, Steve, to arrive with the1968
Mercedes Benz 280SL their mother used to own. |
| Steve
purchased their mother's car over a year ago, had it fully restored
here in Phoenix and flew in from Oklahoma to pick up the
beautifully-finished product...coincidentially the same night we all
were going to Susie's for dinner! |
 |
 | Susie created a masterpiece with her Beef Wellington and... |
| her "lobster cargo" appetizer. |
 |
 | Sister Sharon made a beautiful strawberry-rhubarb pie to complete the evening's festivities! |
| When
Steve was told the pie was a strawberry-rhubarb pie, and not just a
strawberry pie, he was quite surprised! Is was as delicious as it looks! |
 |
 | Julie, Carlos and Popcorn came over on Saturday and we had a wonderful day together. |
| I decided to invite a few friends and neighbors in for a little party on Sunday at my house. |
 |
 | Here's my neighbor Vickie. |
| Sharon and Dorotha. |
 |
| Debby, Jane, Susie and Holly. |
 |
 | Victoria and Ralna. |
| Jane, Debby, Susie and Celeste. |
 |
 | Ralna, Vickie, Judy, Bruce, Marcy and Joseph. |
| My neighbors always enjoying talking with Jane. On the couch are Marcy, Jane, Judy and Lillian. |
 |
| My
friend Gloria graciously sent my sister Sharon one of her Heavenly Hug
dolls last March. She had just lost her husband of almost 50 years.
Here are Sharon and Gloria. |
 |
 | Everyone
really seemed to enjoy getting together that evening. (l. to r.):
Celeste, Susan, Gloria, Holly, Debby, Susie, Dorotha and Jane. |
Monday we had a lovely lunch with good friend
Sandy at the Arizona Culinary Institute. |
