Met Cousin Patty

When my parents were in town my mom found out that cousin Patty and Ron were going to be in Prescott, Az. so we drove over to see them. Spent the afternoon visiting. It was fun! The weather is much cooler.

Highschool Graduate!

Aaron graduated from Highschool on May 27, 2011. It was fun! We had family visit from California. It was a Special day. Mike and I are very thankful to have had the privilege to homeschool. He is attending Paradise Valley Community College. Interests are Fire Science and Personal Trainer/Exercise.

Hannah's Boo Boo !

I have a little run I like to take in the morning before I start the day. Hannah will ride her bike or roller blade with me. Today she was riding her bike and she took a bad fall. I was running a few steps ahead of her and I heard this piercing scream. I looked back and she was on the pavement in tears! Ahhhh! We had to walk home and get in the tub to clean up the horrible road rash. Ouch!

Hip Hip Hooray!! Look who is a Cheerleader!

Our Church CCV (Christ Church of the Valley) offers a Wonderful Sports program for 5000 kids. They offer soccer, basketball, flag and tackle football & a variety of adult sports programs as well. Hannah chose to participate in cheerleading. I was tickled as I was a cheerleader for many years. She is learning to be a leader and to encourage others. I love how they send a character trait to work on each week and learn from the bible about that. They are learning to stand out for the Lord! This program is more than a game it is a life style. Hannah is the first girl on the left!
