San Antonio





Last weekend I went to San Antonio with my bank buddies. We had a good time, although it was hotter than you know what. Actually I can handle the heat but the humidity is what killed me. We walked the River Walk, saw the Alamo and did some shopping! Good Times!!!

Meet Katie!

I have been bugged about not doing enough posting, so I thought about what I could possibly post about, being that my life is pretty uneventful!! I decided that I would do a little blurb on each of my daughters. This week I am featuring Katie. She is my oldest so I decided to begin with her. First of all I just want to say that I am blessed to have a daughter like Katie. She loves life, and has such a strong faith and belief in God. She is an example to all of us, and is always willing to help out when needed. She is bright, creative, and keeps us all laughing. She recieved her bachelor degree at ASU where she graduated Magna Cum Laude. Katie is in her third year of teaching, and loves her little Kindergarteners so much that we don't get to see her as much as we would like to. When school is out she spends alot of time at the school, planning lessons and preparing projects, but she makes time to teach classes at Fitness Works. We all love Katie!

My new Cruiser!!!!



As some of you may know...my husband has joined his son,who has been training for a Triathalon, which will take place in about three weeks. A triathalon consisits of swimming, biking and running. Larry has been riding 50+ miles every Saturday morning, and swims between 850 and 1500 meters at Canyon Lake. Obviosly he cannot run, due to his bionic knees, so he is going to walk instead of run. To make a long story short, I decided that it would be fun to ride with him, although not on a competitive level.....therefore, I bought a cruiser, so that I can just go along for the ride. I love my new bike, although it is nothing like that of my husband's bike, I am looking forward to just cruising around!!!! Who knows....maybe someday I will do a Triathalon..ha ha ha! By the way did I mention how proud I was of Larry??? I'm Very proud!!

Crosby





I am blogging today about our little boy....Crosby. A few weeks a go, Kelsi and her friend were getting rteady to lay out when her friend noticed Crosby stepping out of the pool. We were quite concerned, as Crosby hates the water, and really doesn't know how to swim, or so we thought. We put a netting around the pool so he wouldn't fall in..Wells last night we did our Fantasy football draft and so there were quite a few people over. While Kelsi and I were in the Kitchen, Crosby came tearing through the doggy door like a maniac, when Kelsi reached down to pet him, he was soaking wet! Yes, it seems he went for another swim, and had no trouble getting through the netting. So puzzled as we were we put him in the pool to try and get some answers...yes he can swim, yes, he still hates the water, and apparently he had trouble getting out of the netted area. It's a mystery. Now we need to figure out another way to keep him from falling in.
