Girls Just Want to have Fun


We had the ultimate girls night Thursday. It all started with my wards enrichment night, Pajama party and dinner. Our service project was to collected Pj's for a shelter, so we all wore our pj's to add to the fun. It was a really nice evening, good food, good friends, good cause. After the festivities some of the "girls" wearing our jammies, went to see Twilight. We had so much fun, it brought back memories of my college days. It was fun to act young and goofy, laughing, running around like kids again. An older lady in the restroom asked us if we had been drinking and we laughed and told her we had just come from a church activity were we drank alot of hot chocolate and it wasn't spiked! We were just happy "girls" out on the town.

Mt. Lemmon











The fam took a little road trip today. We went down to Tucson and drove up Mt. Lemmon. It was really beautiful, at the bottom it starts out cactus and rocks, then it turns into evergreen trees, then at the top we played in the snow. We stopped a few times along the road and took pictures, the rock formations were really neat and playing in the snow was fun . The weather was amazing, blue sky, light breeze, lots of sunshine. We stopped at the top and had a picnic (turkey sandwiches). It was a really great way to spend the day enjoying the beautiful scenery and family time.

Tribute to Pricilla

Pricilla and Kiesha
Today was a very sad day, we had to say goodbye to our Pricilla. She has been sick for quite awhile and the last few weeks have been rough, the silver lining is that she is no longer in pain. We loved our Pricilla, she was a fiesty little thing and was very protective of her family. Last winter we took her to Utah with us and when we played in the snow she had a problem with snowmen, we would get one built, she would attack him, it was the funniest thing to watch. She loved to go for a ride in the car or motorhome, she would sit up and look out the window. We are really going to miss her.

Never thought I would see the day!!!


I took my gas guzzling Expedition to Safeway to get gas, and I was so excited by the price I had to take a picture. I can't believe that gas has come so far down, we were at almost $5 per gallon and now under $2, it's incredible. It really made my day:)

Twilight

I just got home from seeing Twilight and Iam very happy to report that I loved the movie, as did my hubby and father in law, well maybe I should say I loved the movie they liked the movie, love is a very strong word. It has been awhile since I read the book so it was fun to have the memories come back as I watched them on the big screen. I am really looking forward to seeing the rest of the books made into movies.

Painting the Silo


We bought a used pellet silo that need some paint. So what do you do when what you need to paint is 30 ft. tall? You load the paint sprayer, Becca & Jr. in the tractor bucket and lift it in the air. I remember when I was little that it was fun and cool to go for a ride in the tractor bucket, but as an adult it was rather scary and not much fun. But we got the job done and the silo looks alot better and we survived. Fun times living on a farm!!!!!

Monday Night Football


Last night the Cardinals hosted the 49ers for Monday night football. It was a very stressfull game because the Cardinals did not play like they should had, they almost blew it at the last second. Thankfully they pulled it out and and we are still leading our division and if all goes well we are headed to the playoffs. The Cardinals have not been to the playoff since 1975 so this could be a history making year.. Stay tuned!
