Salt River Tubing 2020

We have the privilege of my bonus son, Nolan, aka Bob's son, staying with us this summer from Michigan.  We have tried to expose him to a few things in Arizona during the quarantine and one thing we were able to do was go tubing on the Salt River.

We had to wear masks while on site getting our tubes and on the bus on the way to the river.

Here we all are getting ready to get on the river.

Bob was lucky enough to find a raccoon friend on the river's edge.

It's always a joy to see the wild horses come to the river.

It's been a crazy couple of years since my last post!

Let's see, what has happened in the last couple years since my last post?

My children have grown into amazing adults compared to the profile picture on the right of this blog.

My daughter just finished her junior year at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, AZ and is 21.

My son just graduated from high school and will be 18 at the end of July.


This is a recreation of a photo the kids and I did on a vacation in La Jolla, CA while on a segway tour.


We look about the same except everyone  has grown up!



Oh my, and I got MARRIED!  I never thought I'd do that again after being single 12 years BUT, I met my husband, Bob, at a work conference in Florida in 2015.  He lived in Michigan.


Somehow, we became friends over a couple of years and then started dating after he visited in Arizona while attending a work conference.  He moved to Arizona last July.

We had this gorgeous wedding in Sedona, AZ in October 2019.


We had a non-traditional Pink Jeep Tour wedding with our families!  Everyone enjoyed the Jeep Tour that brought us up a hill to get married overlooking the red rocks of Sedona.

Finally, my son graduated from high school in the midst of distance learning and social distancing.


Thankfully, he will be having an in person graduation ceremony on May 23 at the Cardinal's stadium.
I will try to update the blog more often!
