sweet memories...

Last weekend I went up to one of my favorite Aunt's funeral. The funeral was up north near Show Low, Arizona. I drove up with Ashlee, Jordan (Ashlee's boyfriend) and my mom. We had a great trip up there. I wanted to show Ashlee my first house I ever lived in. It's such a small 2 bed room house. Very cute too. My mother told me the day they brought me home from the hospital my dad just got running water into the tiny house. So, yes there was electricity when I was born, but no running water. Show's you how old I am getting. LOL.

5 signs you have bad-fitting jeans...


I came across this article. I sure learned a lot how to find a pair of jeans that will work for me. Hope this will be helpful to you....

don't mess with mother nature...

Need I say any more?? Pictures are worth a 1000 words...

Neighbors tree

fell on our old house

Craig looks like he is up in the tree but really the tree is resting on our house

View from inside the garage

We had some great neighbors who called us to let us know there was a tree on our house. We are very grateful that no one was hurt. It looks to us that the roof will need to be replace but it's not half as bad as the house down the street. The tree went right through their house. What a wild and crazy storm we had.
