RIP Grandma Reynolds

Never in my life have I lost someone in my family that I was old enough to be emotional over. Well My step dad's mother has passed away. I know we didn''t know each other very well and we only saw her every couple years, but she was family. Now the long drawn out process of the funeral and legal issues.

But a flash back of Grandma Reynolds:
I remember the first time we went out to see her in LA, we actually stayed at my Great Grandma's house. I remember meeting Aunt Shannon and all my cousins, I remember putting way to much pepper on my spaghetti and I had to eat all.
I remember building a card house. I think we have a picture of us. I remember we got pulled over for Summer's car seat"not up to California
code" (it was they just pulled over AZ plates). Oh and seeing the dinosaurs by Blyth.


The next time we went out there I remember there was a few earth quakes, one at night and then one during the middle of the day and then one when we were driving to the lake.
I remember hearing "Flying Purple People Eater" for the first time at her house.
I remember she had a fish tank that sloshed when the earth quake hit and dad trying to save it from falling.

I do remember all the phone calls that I had with her, about my cousin Felicia and the others.

I will miss her, but do know that Heavenly Father will help her and that as soon as we can her work at the Temple will be done.
See you in Heaven Grandma!

So in the town of Prescott Valley we get excited when we play prescott in highschool football. Well it has been five years since I have been to a game, so a couple of us decided we would go to the game  Well on top of that we decided to make shurts to go along with it.  They turn out cute as you can see!
We had a great time, but unfortunantly we lost! Bummer!  But great fun non the less!

Happy Birthday to Me!

Well another year has gone by and life could not be any better. This time last year CJ had just proposed to me again with my real engagement ring, and we were taking or engagement pictures. I was doing my student teaching and CJ was taking his CNA classes at Yavapai. Now I am teaching first grade and CJ is in the Nursing program and working at the hospital. We are so thankful for all the blessings that has come about for us and are thankful for family and friends who have helped along the way. Here's to another great year!
