Birthday dinner

I'm a few days late on this but I hate to admit that I am another year older. Last Friday was my birthday and when we got back into town my family took me to et dinner. Heres a picture of me and my girls.


Starting to feel like I'm in my late thirties now!! Boo!!

New Beginnings

This week has been a whirlwind so far. A new town, new job, new surroundings and life finally with my husband. It has also been a difficult time for me, days without my kids and without my parents and without my friends. Thats what's hard and that's what I miss. I do love it up here, even with the freaky weather we had the last few days, from sunny to white out snow to hail and back to sun. Change is hard for me and like Nathan tells me "it's what you make of it". I know once Allorah gets up here and we have a permanent house it will be better and more like "home". Thank God my husband is so patient and understanding of what I'm going thru.
As far as my new job, it's going great. I'm still in orientation until tomorrow and then I will be turned loose to my supervisor to train and learn until my office opens on May 15th. I have so much to learn as far as all the programs I will need to utilize to run the office but I look forward to the challenge and opportunity to get this clinic off the ground. The support system that I have is amazing there.
If you are family and close friends, you know that Nathan just had an emergent surgery on Monday at the hospital in Santa Fe and thankfully he is doing well. He will be off of work for about 2 weeks to recuperate. I had to take the packing out for him last night and it was so painful for him and painful for me to have to cause him that much discomfort but he just grit his teeth and did it. Thank you to all who have checked on him and sent well wishes. It's been a rough start of the year for him but thankfully I was here to take care of him. A special thanks to his Lt. Eric and his lovely wife, LeaAnn, for being there at the hospital with him and for Orlando, who took him to his appointment with the surgeon on Monday morning. Thanks guys!

AGHHH!

Friday was my last day at work and this week I am tasked with getting my stuff together for the big move on Sunday. I cannot for the life of me get my tail in gear to get this done. I am so overwhelmed that I just sit here and look at stuff and not know where to begin. It would be so much easier if we had a permanent place we were moving into and not have to be coming back and forth every weekend to get this house ready to sell. So this is just a lot on my plate. The stress is mounting!

Kids Vacay

The family is heading back from their Vegas vacay today and it seems it went well. We got a few pics of their misadventures.














Lola went to go see Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian and she absolutely loved it! That is her favorite musical and she knows all the words to every song! She is such a cultured diva! They did the sky walk at the Grand Canyon yesterday and almost have my mom a heart attack when they took pictures by the ledge. My mother is deathly afraid of heights so I'm interested to know if she did the walk too.

Flying Kids

Today the kiddos went zip lining over Freemont St. Allorah said she had so much fun and enjoyed herself. Here they are fixing to become flying squirrels!


I was so surprised that they wanted to do this but so glad they did. They are at Mystere, a Cirque de Solei show there in Vegas. I can't wait to hear about it. I hope they have an amazing time tonight.

Spring Break Blues

My kiddos left yesterday to Las Vegas and were so excited.


They drove to Flagstaff and were going to leave at 8 to hit the Grand Canyon.... Or so they thought! This is what they woke up to


I-40 is shut down and they are stuck. They are not happy campers! None of them packed for snow. I hope they drive carefully once they get back on the road.
