Welcome to Tucson!!!!

We have a houseful now! Eli's family got here on Tuesday afternoon. Chris (Eli's girlfriend) is great! Potential best friend???? We will see! His kids have gotten so big. The last time I saw them was about 3 years ago when he still lived in Indiana. I have babysat them before.

I had to go to the eye doctor this morning and I found out that the glasses I got like 2 years ago, I didn't even need them. He did say that my eye muscles are weak and I need to do some eye exercises. I have never heard of that before. So, I guess it is back to the drawing board trying to find out what is wrong with my head. All the tests I have had have come back normal so I don't know what is wrong. Everyone is telling me that I have always not been right in the head, so I don't know.

School is going good. Cody is doing really well and has brought all his grades up to an A and two B's. WAY TO GO CODY!!!!

Lot of fun this week!




We have had a lot of fun this week! I did not have any school this week. It is crazy, they let school out for the rodeo. Can you believe that?


There is a big golf tournament here in Tucson and the law firm that I work for has a huge tent right on the 16th hole and all our big clients are in town for the tournament. We got two tickets to attend on Sunday and spend time with all the higher ups in the firm. Last weekend ago we went to my friend Dawn's 20th birthday party. We had a lot of fun and I have posted a couple of the pictures on here for everyone to look at.


Cody is still doing really good in school and has brought his grades up. He now has an A, a B, and a C.


Well I will put more when I have more to talk about.

Weird Week

Cody is doing so much better with school. I think he is finally beginning to get a grasp on what is expected of him in his English class. That has been an uphill battle. School is going good for me as well. I have my first essay due in English class on Saturday. As most of the people who know me know I am no good with this type of thing. But I was able to knock out a three page essay in about an hour. Shane will be checking it over nonetheless. Thank God!!!

Shane and I have a friend who lives in Houston, Texas who has accepted a position with Poly Print (where Shane works) and will be arriving here in Tucson on Friday. Eli is a great guy. He has been a friend to us when most people in our lives have decided that since we moved so far away that we were not important anymore. Thanks for that Eli!!!!

My nephew, Brandon, will be coming to Arizona in June and spending 3 or so weeks with us. I am so excited and so is he from the feeling I got when I talked to him on the phone. He told me that he is looking forward to it. We are going to try and plan his trip[ out here around him coming with my middle sister Pat. They will be coming out here for my other nephew Austin to tour the University of Arizona. Hopefully Austin will pick here to go to college. But he will go where God wants him to go. That is what is important. Even though we would LOVE to have him here.

The weather here has been outstanding. It has been in the mid seventies for about 6 days now. I do not miss that snow and ice and cold at all. This is the life!!!!

Well, that is it for this week. From our house to yours, may God bless and keep everyone safe and we love each and every one of you with all our hearts!!!!

What a Crazy Week



Cody has been working really hard this past week to get his homework caught up and up to date. Hopefully by the end of this week he should be on track.

Shane has been really sick still. We are going to the doctor this morning. I am afraid he has pneumonia. I hope not. He says "Thanks Mom for giving me the flu!" (lol just kidding Mom).

It was really great to see my parents this past weekend. We got to spend most of Saturday with them and then went out to breakfast on Sunday morning. Mom was feeling pretty bad on Sunday morning, then we find out on Tuesday that she definately has the flu! Yuck. Hopefully Dad won't get to sick. I spent Saturday afternoon shopping with Mom while Shane and Dad stayed at the house watching TV and hanging out with Cody.

I had my first real English class on Saturday morning. Wow is all I can say! My teacher just looks to deep that is for sure. She is a good teacher though, just real hard. I have school this afternoon. Civil Litigation class. It was cancelled last week. So hopefully we will have a good class today.

Well, that is about all the news for this week. Have a great week see you next Thursday!!!
