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.

Lots of FUN things happening lately..
Last week Kelly came up for a visit. We had a great time checking out the sights downtown around the courthouse plaza and a wonderful visit. Jesse thinks Kelly is AWESOME. (she is)
Then we got to travel down to Maricopa for baby Wyatt's blessing (Mike & Alise's baby) and then on to Mom & Dad's for the September/October family birthday party, which included Cassandra's FIRST birthday! Jesse and I stayed for a few days. He got to visit with Seeme & Papa, hang out with Aubri, and go see the Smurf movie with Christopher & Aubri.
We had a great time.. but not on the way home.. the car decided it had enough and broke down outside of Mayer. I had a anxious & upset 10 year and a 1 year old that was tired of being in her car seat. The Highway Patrol came to our rescue and drove us to Mayer Market to wait so we were out of the heat. It's not very comfortable in the back of a patrol car, (I don't recommend it) :) but Jesse thought it was an adventure. 
We had Cassandra here for a few fun filled days. (love me some baby snuggles) Before Kayci took her home Cody & Laurie came by with her birthday present - Cookie Monster and a piano!
And then Sunday night, Bob & Ruth, Chuck & Bev, and Cody & Laurie came over for a visit and barbque. It was great getting together with Walt's sister & brother.
