Happy Memorial Day to all my blogging friends~I hope you are having a WONDERFUL weekend!
Ashley graduated from high school on Thursday and it was such a bittersweet moment. I have been sad, I won't lie....but Ashley has such a bright future ahead and is so excited to move on that I try to be happy for her. I am going to help her get moved up to Flagstaff tomorrow and I hope we are able to enjoy our time together. I will keep you posted!
This has been an emotional week for me~Ashley graduating was part of it, but Oprah's last show was Wednesday too. My mom loved Oprah and watched her everyday. I have watched Oprah since I was a senior in high school & I feel like she has helped me throughout my married life. Oprah's last 3 shows were wonderful, but the very last one was full of such great advice, I felt she was talking to me. Everyone wants to feel validated & it is so true, we all need to feel like what we say & do matters. I'm gonna start adding Oprah quotes to my blog & I hope you enjoy them! =)
Oprah Quote~"Every day brings a chance for you to draw in a breath, kick off your shoes, and dance"
To my sweet Ashley~ I hope you know how much 'I Love You' and that I am ALWAYS here for you! You are a WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL, KIND, LOVING, SPECIAL woman, whom I'm proud to call my daughter. Know that you can do anything you set your mind to~'THE SKY IS THE LIMIT'~ and let your Heavenly Father be your best friend, turn to him daily and he will bless you more than you know!

May Madness!
I can't believe it is already May 18th....HOLY COW!!! Ashley has Seminary Graduation and Baccalaureate on Sunday. Graduation is Thursday May 26th and she leaves to go to NAU on May 31st & she'll be gone til July 6th. I can't believe she'll be gone soon but THANKFULLY she'll be back July 6th til she leaves in August.
I will be leaving June 5th til June 25th to take a CNA course in Mesa~I have to have this certification to apply to the nursing program. Dusty & Hayden will be 'bachelors' for the month of June, I may need a housekeeper! =)
It has been so nice not having homework.....I have gotten some cleaning done on my house that was badly needed. I love school, but having a break right now is HEAVENLY!! =)

Sorry~it's been way too long!
I haven't even been on blogspot since Aug. of last year~so sorry!! I am going to 'TRY' to do better at posting~I promise!!
Let's Play Catch-up:
Hayden is doing great at EAC~~I think he is majoring in 'pretty girls' but his grades are holding up, so I guess it's okay =) He has been able to come home a few times & we sure enjoy his sweet smiling face & his teasing that never ends. Summer is coming fast & he will be coming home to work with his dad....Dusty loves having his boy home~They are 2 peas in a pod!!
Ashley's senior year has been full of volleyball, basketball & friends...friends...friends! She was accepted to NAU & has senior-itis something HORRIBLE~can't wait to fly the coop & start her college life as a psychiatry major. Ash was accepted into NAU's Star Program as well, in which she will take classes at NAU from June 1st to July 1st~she will beable to earn 8 credit hours for doing this. We are so proud of our 'Ashley Bug' & the wonderful goals she has set for herself!
Well, I started school at NPC and boy has it been fun BUT an eye-opener....23 years is WAY to long to wait to go back to school. I am finishing up finals & will have 1 year behind me....Phew!!! I will be going down to Mesa from June 6th to June 24th to become a CNA. I need this certification to apply to the nursing program in the spring of next year. Being able to apply to nursing school seems so far off, but I know it will be here before I know it! Dusty & Hayden will have the house to themselves in June~~not sure if this is a good idea or not! =) My mom passed away over a year ago & it has been a hard anniversary but I know she is looking down on us & smiling. I was able to go & do her temple work with my Aunt Lilly and Rachel. What a WONDERFUL day that was...I know she was dancing in heaven!!
Dusty has been staying busy with our appliance store, although business has been a little slow lately but hopefully it will pick up again soon. Fishing is on his mind all of the time, so hopefully he'll be able to get away to Roosevelt & fish....fish....fish!!
May is coming fast & Ashley will be graduating from HS. I will try to get some pics posted soon of dances, senior pics, graduation & more! Hope all of my 'blogging' friends are doing well~thanks for sharing your blogs with me~I enjoy reading about your families too! =)
