Martina McBride is "Awesome"

Wow!! What an awesome concert....she is unbelievable! Suzanna & I enjoyed great seats (row 9 from the stage) thanks to RVVC who gave me the tickets as a going away gift. I can't thank them enough...it was the BEST!!

"time flies when you're having fun"

I've been thinking about this Summer & the fun we've had............

We went fishing at Roosevelt on Memorial Day Weekend & had so much fun. Caught quite a few fish.......Dusty caught a 10lb bass & Hayden caught a 12lb bass..........(K, who's the better fisherman now?) =)

In June I went to Rocky Point, Mexico with CB, my Mom, Suzanna, PJ & Mary. I had never been to Mexico & it was sooooo relaxing. I enjoyed it very much!! It was nice spending time with my Mom.

When I got back from Mexico......Julie Allen, Ashley, Shilee & I went to see Tim Mcgraw...WOW!!! He is GREAT in concert! He truly is a "Real Good Man" =DDD

July started off with a BANG!! Ashley, Rachel & Macie Wiltbank, Darrlyn & Jonna Edwards & I went to the AMERICAN IDOL Concert in Glendale........We LOVED it!! We are BIG AI fans & are going to make this an annual trip. Spending time together was priceless....Thanks guys!!

Dusty & Hayden went to football camp in Colorado for a week in July. We can't wait to watch some games............."WE ARE READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL"!!!!!

School starts this coming Wednesday (8/13) & it's just come too quickly. I've enjoyed my kids this Summer & look forward to a "WONDERFUL" year!!

I am working at the Appliance store & so far so good!! Hopefully all will go well for everybody. I MISS everyone at RVVC though =(

Well thats all for now...........I'll keep you posted with.... Hayden's football stuff & Ashley's volleyball stuff! GO ELKS!!

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?

Our family is BIG on football.......Dusty coaches & Hayden is the QB of the Round Valley Elks!! This is the year for RV to win the 3A Football Championship....I can feel it "). There is a scrimmage with Maricopa on August 22nd and a (real) game on August 29th against Coolidge both here in the Dome. GO ELKS!!

"Breaking Dawn" is finally out!!

I was in Mesa this past weekend & couldn't wait to pick up the final book of the Twilight Series, "Breaking Dawn" by Stephenie Meyer. Dusty got up with me Saturday morning at about 7am & we headed for Target. It's great so far!! I'll keep you posted!! (Thanks Marcy for getting me hooked) :D

What a Strange Feeling

Here it is Monday & I am not getting ready for work at Dr. Heaps office :( My last day was Friday & everyone at work took me to Mollys for lunch.(What a Treat)!!! It was sad.....I am so grateful to have worked with such wonderful people for 8 years -I will truly miss them.

Ashley & I are taking my Mom down to Tucson for her chemotherapy today. Ashley is hoping to find some great school clothes. We will be back tomorrow so it will be a quick trip.

Prof. Randy Pausch 47 dies from Pancreatic Cancer

I've been watching this amazing man fight this horrible disease. He has done it with such grace. If you haven't read "The Last Lecture" by Professor Randy Pausch, please do, it is so inspiring!! My heart goes out to his family (he leaves behind a wife & 3 small children).

My Mom was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer in September of 2007. She was unable to have the surgery to remove the tumor & is on the chemotherapy plan. The tumor seems to be inactive & shrinking slowly. YEAH!! Hopefully her positive attitude will pull her through.

Please check out my link to the Pancreatic Cancer site & donate if you can. Thanks!!
