| Marcus getting ready to show me his stellar moves on the diving board! |
 |

 |
| I am air borne just like the high flyer evan bourne (wwe wrestler) Marcus added that himself! |
 |
| He was successful at NOT belly flopping! Its been a fun relaxing day just hanging out. Mackenzie is listening to music and conditioning her hair and Mitch and Max are at the Dbacks game and when they get back we are going to grill. Hope everyone enjoys their long weekend! |

| My sister just made my day! Look at this beautiful bowl!!! She found it in Burlingame at an Antique store today. Yes, there is a story behind it. But first, thank you to my sister for finding it! Several years ago there was an auction at my grandparents house(my dads parents) and my maternal grandmother bought a set of pyrex dishes at the sale, but it was missing a bowl. And when my grandmother came to visit me she gave me those bowls. They mean a lot to me. I have the yellow, red and green bowl but the blue was the one she no longer had. I have been on a mission since then, looking at thrift stores all over Phoenix hoping someday I would find a blue pyrex bowl to complete my set. I even had some of my clients who enjoy rummaging at sales to keep an eye out for it. Well, my sister found it today and I am so happy! Thank you Sissy! |
 |
| I am very blessed to be the mother of these two wonderful children! |
 |
| This was the best news of the week! I have been following this trial from the beginning. |
 |

 |
| We went to the Dbacks game Friday night and there were fireworks after the game... |
 |
| Getting ready to leave for her first dance without her dad...all her dances in the past have been family related. I think dad is feeling a little heartbroken. |
 |
| ...and I actually feel the same way :( |
 |
| She is going with her BFF Vanessa and then to her house for a sleepover.. |
 |
| How grown up and pretty they look! |
 |
| Yay! I love flowers! Everything is blooming, however, in order to keep it from dying, you have to water twice a day. When it reaches the 110 mark, I am sure we will be watering 3 times a day! |
 |
| A nice pool shot |
 |
| The water was even warm enough for us to get in. Here is Marcus snorkeling. |
 |
| Last week we went to a Dbacks game...we had a great time! |
 |
| Our seats are just past 3rd base and about 13 rows from the front! They are awesome! Major foul ball territory; you really have to keep your eye on the game! |
 |
| Saturday night our friends Heather and Jerry came over for dinner. I made grilled chicken tacos with mango and black bean salsa and Heather made her amazing homemade salsa! I also made a sangria from Bobby Flay...it was good food and always a good time we get together with them :) |

| Marcus LOVED the snow |
 |
| Him and his cousin Alex had a snowball fight...you can see we were a little unprepared...we didn't have gloves or hats...so we had to go to Walmart. |
 |
| Marcus' first snowman! |
 |
| The special lady we came to see! |
 |
| The snow kept us from seeing her as much as we would have liked. Our intentions were to bring her to our hotel, but it was way to cold and slick. :( |
