Fun with nephews

When Amy was here we took all the boys to go play in the fountain at Desert Ridge. They LOVED it! Here are some pictures of my cute nephews.





This one wasn't at Desert Ridge but I thought it was cute

Happy Halloween!

Look at this scary picture! MONICA, YOU 'RE A GH...GH...GH...GHOST! Here is my Mom's halloween costume. She was one of the people who show dogs at those big dog shows. She even ran around in a circle with the dog dragging behind her. It was hilarious!
Here she is with my Dad, he was a newspaper printer man. His shirt said Times Mirror. Suzie (the dog) was just waiting for my Mom to drop that dog so she could get it!

And off she goes. Look at that dog's form. You can just tell that he is of good breed and his teeth are in immaculate condition. That dog is sure to win the Eukanuba best in show!


Here is Matthew...I mean spider man relaxing on the couch. I love this picture!
Here is the whole spider man family. James is the newspaper boss, Tim is Peter Parker, and Monica is the secretary (I forgot her name) They had great costumes!
So the plan was to have our traditional Halloween spook dinner on Monday night. On Friday night my Mom found out that my Dad was going to be out of town on Monday so we decided to have our dinner that night. We had to come up with costumes last minute so I am a scary bride (notice the machete...EEKS!) and Donavon is a Melaleuca customer. When I worked for Melaleuca they gave us all jump suits and I got one for D. Fancy!
That knife got old so I decided to be the run away bride instead.

Cute Colin!

My sister Amy and her little boy Colin came to AZ a few weeks ago. We were so excited to have them here! They live in San Diego, Ca and had to evacuate because of the fires but their house was just fine. We just wish that my brother in law Brien was able to come and join in on the fun too. One afternoon we went over to the Desert Ridge Marriott to take some pictures of Colin. He is such a cute kid! We had a fun photo shoot so have fun looking at the pictures!

When I first moved to California my neighbor invited me to go to a taping of Home Improvement and I was so excited! When we go there I said to them, I heard that Zachary Thy Bryan lives in our town...and before I even finished my sentence they said, Oh, that's who we are coming to see! I froze! I couldn't believe my 14 year old ears. After the taping we went up to his dressing room and while they talked to Zach and his family I stood there with a big smile on my face not able to say a WORD! And the most wonderful thing happened, the one and only Jonathan Taylor Thomas walked by the door and said hi. I about died! It was a wonderful day!

Happy Birthday Mom!

We love you so much and hope you had a wonderful day!

Baseball Season

Midwestern had their intramural baseball games these past couple of weeks and the 2nd year podiatry students were the champions! It was so fun to go to the games and watch these guys play. Donavon is so good! He could wack that ball out of the park like you wouldn’t believe! Congratulations team, and I’m so proud of you honey!

Some of the other wives came with their kids and I couldn’t believe how dirty these kids could get. They were so funny to watch. The very last game one of the little girls came in her Cinderella PJs with mismatching dress up heals. Oh, I was laughing so hard…I can’t wait to have kids, they totally crack me up.
