pneumonia!

My mom is at Northwest Medical Center in Tucson fighting pneumonia. Her body is extremely weak from the chemotherapy treatments. She was admitted on February 9th & continues to be in ICU hooked up to a ventilator. Her breathing is very labored & it has taken its toll on her. The Dr's are VERY optimistic & are trying to fight the pneumonia with antibiotics which are FINALLY working. She is anemic & has had to have 3 blood transfusions. Suzanna & I have been trying to take turns going down to be with her. CB has been wonderful & takes such good care of her (she is LUCKY to have him). I will try to update my blog as she continues to get better. Thank you for all your prayers!

Eagar Appliance......FINALLY!!

We have been in our new store since the beginning of January. There are still some finishing touches needing to be done but we are LOVING it!! The Town of Eagar is helping us get access to our parking lot through Basha's which will be really nice. Our inventory is low right now, but, we are custom ordering during this slow time. Our turn around time on delivery of appliances is a couple of days. Also, Eric Wright has his cabinets on display with the appliances & WOW are they nice. We are still waiting on counter-tops which hopefully will be in this coming week. It is FINALLY all coming together.....YEAH!!!

Go Cardinals!!!!!

The Cardinals WIN....The Cardinals WIN......The Cardinals WIN!!!! Dusty & Hayden ENJOYED the BIG game on Saturday! They had never been to a NFL game before & were IMPRESSED with the University of Phoenix Stadium & the ARIZONA CARDINALS!!!!









Ashley & I watched a couple of movies (Yes Man...pretty crude/Marley & Me...really good but really sad) close to the stadium (with texts of the score from Dusty)! I am so glad Dusty & Hayden got to go to the game together~~what a FUN experience for them!!!

On the way home Sunday it started to snow between Salt River Canyon & Show Low. There was one wreck & a couple cars off the side of the road. I love the snow..... but not when we're trying to get home in it.

We have moved into our new store FINALLY & hope to open Monday, January 12th! It is SOOOOOOOO nice!!!! I will post some pics for my out of town friends, sometime soon =0)

"OUT OF SHAPE"!!!

WOW.....I can't believe Christmas is over...it was here & gone in a FLASH!! Ashley got a new snowboard & we spent the day at Sunrise skiing! I have not been skiing in 20 years & boy am I sore!! This body is NOT in shape!! I hurt from my waist up!!! While skiing my knees were aching but NOW it's my whole upper half....what was I thinking????? Pj & Dj went with us & we had a GREAT time!! Ashley & I got Dusty & Hayden tickets to the Cardinals Playoff game next weekend. We are looking forward to going with them & spending some time in the warm weather. (hopefully it will be warm)!!! GO CARDINALS!!!!

Tis the Season....

I love the Christmas season! When I was younger, Christmas was the most WONDERFUL time of year. My family spent many Christmas's with my Moms parents. I loved my grandparents so much & enjoyed spending the holidays with them. I LOVED CHRISTMAS!! As I have gotten older, Christmas has become stressful worrying about what gifts to buy. How do you STOP stressing & enjoy the season?

Last year we went to Disneyland with all of Dusty's family. It was really nice to be together in such a magical place and enjoy just being TOGETHER!! Family is truly one of life's biggest treasures!

I didn't know if my Mom would be here for another Christmas & she IS!! I am so thankful for GOOD doctors & the power of prayer. My Mom is doing GREAT & the cancer is STILL in remission (yeah)!! I have had so many blessings in my life that make this Christmas even more SPECIAL. Lately, I can't help but think of my LIFE & how did I get where I am today? I have a WONDERFUL husband who is truly the BEST thing that has ever happened to me. We have been married for 21 years & there have been ups & downs but we hang in there no matter what(thank goodness). My children are AMAZING!! Hayden is such a SWEETHEART, he is kind hearted & will USUALLY do anything you ask him to do. Ashley is my GIRL, she is COMPASSIONATE & LOVING (most of the time) towards her family and friends! I have the BEST friends in the world. What a WONDERFUL life I have been BLESSED with. There is definately NO room for being stressed this Christmas! May we all remember our SAVIOR this Christmas & the ultimate sacrifice that he made on our behalf. I love each of you & hope you have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!
