Fortune cookie I hope comes true soon.

The other night Matt and I went out to eat at PF Chang's. It was a great dinner. The conversation, as usual, turned to children. As many may know, Matt and I can't have children, so we were discussing adoption options, for the millionth time, timing, finances, etc. The conversation changed and we went on with our meal. As we paid for our meal they brought us our fortune cookies. After Matt ate his, he smiled and handed me his fortune. This is what his fortune read.




It was a good ending to a good meal.

Hotter Than Hell???

Well I can confirm one thing, Arizona in July is really quite warm. It's really a dead heat for which is hotter in the summer in my mind, Houston or Phoenix.

Thank goodness for Blue Bell (available in both places), Jack-In-The-Box Milkshakes (available in both places) & swimming pools (a requirement in both places).

We had a great time with everyone that we were able to see, and we're sad we couldn't be there longer to see everyone else (and that Debbie was sick for a day or two, cutting into visiting time).

I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we had being a part of them!!!

The Little Kammi all grown up!

This post is a bit over due. Last month I was able to travel back to Utah to attend Kammi's High School graduation. It was fun to be with Kammi and to celebrate with her. Going to a high school graduation brought back many memories. I loved high school, I loved all the talk about starting a new adventure, about the friendships made, and on and on. Now she is off to college. Through out the whole graduation my mother kept commenting, "I can't believe Kammi is graduating." I don't think she ever imagined this, she has been raising children since our oldest sister was born in 1970. That is 38 years of raising kids. What a wonderful mom with all the service that she has put into her children. She won't know what to do with herself next year with out having Kammi's games to go to.

Kammi, along with all of her soccer teammates, wore her soccer socks. It was pretty stylish with her skirt and cute shoes.

Good Luck Kammi!!!
