Epilepsy Walk at the phx zoo!

2010-04-17T23:42:00.000-07:00

This year on 4-10-10 we did the epilepsy walk with erics family and since it was at the phx zoo I asked my aunt mary if i could take her girls. Since Im their favorite. hehe! So Eric and I went and we had Amber who is 8 and Kaylee who is 3. well while there we had a little adventure. man can kaylee get away FAST. we had our eyes off of her for no more than 5 seconds and SO many people in our group you think someone would have seen. but nope no one saw and Kaylee got away and gave me a heart attack about. I was scared to death. VERY long story short about 20 min ago we found her and she was talking to the snack bar people by the petting zoo about 10 min from where we were originally! and she acted like nothing was wrong. When i found her and picked her up and was of course crying she told me "Tay-Tay I just wanted to see the pretty farm." She really has no fear and we were all so scared. so glad i found her and she didnt leave my side once after that. I wouldnt let go of her hand :) But her and Amber had fun they got to ride a camel and loved watching the animals. here are some pictures of them.

So eric and I finally got internet so i can update this a little more often now. We are very excited.
Last weekend Maddie and Diego were with us all weekend and I was leaving my moms house and a turtle crossed the street and I almost hit it (how often do you see a turtle cross the street) so of course I had to pull over. Eric and Diego got out and ran to it. Diego immediately fell in love with it and since he fell in love with it of course my parents had to let him keep it all thanks to his wonderful sister (me) for pulling over. here are some pictures of diego and the turtle (I think the turtles name is speedy gonzoles but not sure), and pics of bella wondering what the heck the turtle is doing in HER backyard.

Cali Trip

2009-11-01T19:25:00.000-08:00

you can barely see this but it is a call box. I have never seen these before. apparently they are really known but i guess not to me. this amused me so much. hey when a 9 hour drive turns into a 12 hour drive we need the little things to amuse us

These amused us on the drive there...

It has been so long since I have posted anything on here thought I would share what has been going on. The beginning of october we went to Taft, CA. Its like 45 min from bakersfield and is a very small town. My friend was having a babyshower so we went to visit. We are thinking planning and hopefully moving there this coming spring as long as eric gets the job he is hoping to get. We did not get very many pictures while we were there but here are a few we did get.

This is the custest picture ever. this is most of the little kids on the grass eating their cones. I love them All!!!!!!!!

Me, Isabelle and my cousin Bailey

This fathers day we were at my grandmas. And since she was in the hospital and now in a nursing home for a few days we had a lot of family in town. It was so much fun being with all the kids.

My Mema!!

2009-06-19T21:20:00.000-07:00

Okay so first of all mema is my grandma. Well On Wednesday I was at work and got a call from my mom that mema was in the hospital. Well I immediately got worried sick, I had talked to her just earlier that day and ya she sounded tired but other than that she was still able to talk to me. So 20 min later after work i went down to the hospital after waiting there 2 hours (because only one person at a time could see her) I was finally able to go in and see her. And she was so out of it. She kept telling me to let her go home. It was so sad to see her like this and what they had thought was that she had a stroke. She was showing all the symtoms of a stroke(later we found out she did have a stroke a few weeks ago) but then I went home. thursday after work eric and I went straight to go see her and what they had found out while i was at work was that she had severe dehydration and was dehydrated as if she had nothing top drink for 4 days and so her liver was only working at a 50%. she also had a UTI which developed sepsis(I think is how you spell it). either one of those alone could kill you but put together made it worse. The doctor said if she didnt come in within 2 days she would of been dead. So when eric and I went to see her on thursday she was doing better than the night before but her stories were still funny and just watching her made me sad. this is the woman who besides my mom has been there for me my whole life and I love her more than words can explain. Im so glad she is doing better now and tomorrow she gets to leave the hospital and go to a nursing place so they can help her get back on her feet like she used to be. Please keep mema in your prayers that she will make a fast recovery. I love you Mema!!!

So I said " I love you as my wonderful cousin." He was so funny and cute and we had a lot of fun.

Our Poor Bella!

2009-04-26T20:39:00.000-07:00

So about a week ago we noticed a big bump with a little hole in it on Bellas chest. We in that week it has doubled in size and has started bleeding. So today we spent about 3 hours in the Emergency animal hospital. She has a tumor. Its not going to kill her yet. as of right not she is on medicine and if it has not gone down in size in a few weeks then its not going to go down so then we will have to take her back in to get it removed. Now they did not give us the pills for medicine they gave us liquid. it is a pain in the butt to give to her. She clawed us and growled like we have never seen her before growl at eric. She did really good when they took the sample of the bump she didnt cry at all but when they took her temperature she did not like that at all and she did cry. Well thats the update on bella as of right now!

Close friends 2 of them and eric and I all got them a hotel room for the reception night. We got them a room at the residence inn marriott. It was 2 bedroom 2 bath 2 stories with a living room and kitchen. It was nice. Eric and I went earlier on sunday and decorated it. We put rose pedals leading from the door way all the way up the stairs to that bedroom. we made it look really nice.

Megan and I in High school

So megan left for alaska yesterday. Megan is my BEST FRIEND and has been for the past 10 years. We have been through everything together. Her husband is the air force so alaksa is where he got stationed. I was really good when I said bye to her, I didnt cry at all but the min I got in the car I turned into a big baby for the rest of the day even while I was at work. I miss her so much. When she got to alaska at 2 this morning she texted me saying it was snowing and it was -4 degress. WOW thats cold. Im not going to even see megan for a year and a half to two years. Thats when eric and I are going to Alaska to visit her. Yes, Eric and I are going to alaska and yes I know the plane tickets are expensive but thats why we are planning so for in advance so that we can save for them. Neither of us can wait to go visit her we are so excited.

so this is our christmas tree. yes it is standing on something it is not really that tall. so we were looking for a long time for a fake tree and we saw this one at frys it was pre lit and 6 feet tall and only $40. So we got home and my wonderful husband put it up. and it is shorter than him and he is not even 6 feet tall. lets just say next year we are getting a real tree like we wanted in the begginning!

these are our stockings. my mom had mine and an extra one for eric but she told me that eric and i should just get our own so that they match so thats what we did and we love them.

Okay so this is thanksgiving and this is my grandparents 6 kids and there families. they have 2 kids that werent there. so not quite the whole family but close. and its my moms mom side of the family. But there is a funny story. So Bailey my cousin that is standing in front of eric well she wanted to stay by us but we were suppossed to be standing with our individual families so i was telling her "Bailey you need to go stand by your mommy" Well she went and told her mom that she wanted to stand with eric. So everyone was all quiet when aunt lori said everybody bailey has a special request she wants to stand with eric.
