Crazy Weather

We are having crazy weather here in northern Arizona. It snowed on Sunday May 2nd. Most of us are pretty tired of this cold and ready for spring and summer.
Family Update:
Hartley and her family are in Pinetop. Halle is almost 5 and will be starting school in August. Hartley has been getting her ready by teaching her numbers and letters. Evve is 8 months old and learning to crawl and has some teeth coming in. She seems to love food. Jason's job is still going well.
Hillary and Tyler are still in Henderson. Cade is 6 months old and 'growing like a weed', as they say. He is the same size as his cousin, Evve. But we all know that boys mature differently than girls.
Emma and Brennik are in Queen Creek. Emma is starting to look pregnant, she is so cute! they are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their little guy in July.
Lane is still building a bank in Show Low. I don't see him very much, this job is intense.
I am keeping the home fires burning taking care of all the animals, garden etc.
So, life goes on. We all have ups and downs but hopefully when we look back at what we have accomplished we will only remember the great times we share as a family. I am reading a book called "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff". Which reminds us to stop and smell the roses, to cherish and appreciate all we have been given.

WIND

OK, this is nuts. February has flown by and now March is almost gone. This year seems to be blowing by, anyone that has ever lived in Snowflake knows what I mean. Spring is here and so is the WIND. It will be nice to see green again soon. That is one thing I haven't gotten use to, the brown dead winter. I should have more pictures to post soon. Take care everyone, and if you come to Snowflake, hang on and don't worry about your hair, you will look like everyone else up here, WIND BLOWN.

where does time go?

It's February already!
We have had a cold winter and it doesn't look like it is over yet. Since time seems to be flying by maybe it will be spring soon. I think I am done with this winter weather stuff.
Lane's job is progressing well. I am still deciding what to do with my employment status. Hartley and her family are all fine. Evve will be 6 months old soon. Hillary's little Cade isn't so little anymore. I think he weighs as much as Evve. He is going to be a big boy. He is 3 months old.
Emma will find out in a week if she is having a boy or a girl.
Families are great.

Happy New Year

-Cousins-

The holidays are over but the fun memories are lingering. We were lucky this year and had all our family together for Christmas. Hillary, Tyler and Cade came from Henderson, NV; Emma and Brennik came from Queen Creek and Hartley, Jason, Halle and Evve are here in Snowflake. It was awesome. I can understand now why parents love it when their WHOLE family gets together. It was fun to see them interact as adults. We had lots of good food, played games and basically we just had a lot of fun together. That is what the holidays should be about, not the gifts or the food but FAMILY. We are hoping to have a great year. We will be adding another little one in July when Emma and Brennik have their first. I guess they will find out in February if it is a boy or girl. Another boy would be great to even things out a little, but we will love whatever it is. Guess that is all the news from our family. Have a great year!
