My photo
This is more of a photo scrapbook and a place to write (and vent) my thoughts and feelings and brag about my grandkids.. I am a 60 something wife, mom & grandma. I've been married to my best friend Walt since 1977. The most important thing in my life is family. We have been blessed with some great kids, our daughter Kayci, son Cody, our awesome grandson Jesse, our precious granddaughters Cassandra and Chelsea and our newest grandson John. We are currently raising our grandson Jesse and dealing with things such as Autism & ADHD. We have lived in northern Arizona for most of the last 35 years and love it here. We've had our ups & downs ~ but life is good... I'll add a little here - my sweetheart and best friend Walt passed away unexpectedly January 8, 2014. He will be missed by many.

Mom, this is for you..

Happy Mother's Day
to my Mom ~ the best mom ever!
"I look back on my childhood
and thank the stars above.
For everything you gave me,
but mostly for your love."
Wayne F. Winters, from Ode to Mom
Mom, thank you for all you are, For your examples of love, kindness, and integrity. You have always been there for us, in everything we did (and sometimes didn’t do). You are still there with love, understanding, and your arms wide open for us, And your grandchildren, and great grandchildren, No matter what..
Here are a few quotes that say what I could not put into words ~ Denise

I love you Mom

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was easy to be your mom.....and your sister and brothers. We are grandparents of 11 and now greatgrandparents of 9 (soon to be 10) and that gives us more to love.
Happy Mothers day to you Denise. I love you more. Mom
