Two weekends ago I went to Prescott with my wonderful sister Chari. We had a blast shopping and laughing. Chari and I have the ability to make each other laugh forever (mostly because we make fun of each other and ourselves!) I was excited to get away to a cooler place however; when we got there it was still 94 degrees. We took the heat in stride, well long enough to walk to the next shop. I had so much fun with her, she truly is one of the most warm hearted people I know.( I forgot my camera so no pictures from this trip... bummer)
This last week Tricia and I went to San Diego... it was WAY cooler then here. The weather was 69-75 degrees the entire time, I loved it! We of course went shopping and laid out on the beach. I would live on the beach if I had the
option to. We also went boogie boarding and had so much fun. I swallowed enough salt to last a year though and by the end, the salt water made both of ours eyes so blurry we could hardly see. I love people wa
tching on the beach you see some of the most interesting charcters. We were also able to go and have dinner with Lynn and Jake, it was so good to see them both even though are server was incompetent. I had two amazing vacations and am planning on going every year.
( I was unable to take a picture of Heidi and me without cutting off our faces!) 
When the hubbys finally arrived we played catch phrase, it was so much FUN!! I can't help but laugh when we are all together. I always end up laughing so much that my cheeks hurt. We had a great weekend and I can't wait until that Halladay's come to town again.
I have become a soccer mom! Troy and I went and cheered on Gavin at his first game today and it went great. Although we do live in Arizona where the weather is as hot as the surface of the sun, we bared through it to watch him score two goals. (It would have been three but the thrid one went out of bounds.) They don't really keep score in the 3-4 year olds game but we won. Although it might have had something to do
with the 
other team only having one little girl who wanted to play. The coach made the best of it and had some of our players play for the opposing team. The coach's motto was "I coach, they play, you cheer!" I am not sure if that is a nice way of telling us to leave the coaching to him, or letting us know we shouldn't be critical if they don't make the goal. It was an incredible day and I was so glad that my sister and mother could come. I think Gavin had the most family there cheering him on, that is one awesome thing about coming from a blended family. I can't wait until next Saturday, I am afraid though that he might one day be embarrassed with his mother's constant cheering and yelling from the side lines but, for now he loves it!
but who knows what I will do next :)!!!
