We had an eventful month with lots of cooler temperatures and rain - unusual for us in sunny So California.
We started the month off with a trip back to Arizona to visit with my parents and see the Parker 450 desert race. Here's some great pictures from our trip. Sammy and Stevie joined us and we spent the weekend laughing, playing games and doing our best to stay dry.
The girls tented the first night but after a horrific downpour all day Saturday resulting in an inch of rain in the tent they ended up on the floor of our rented trailer.
One of the many racers at the Parker 450. We had great seats and had so much fun ~ Until the rain came!
Katie and Kelly - such sweet sisters!
Four crazy girls trying to keep warm
After leaving the race due to the rains we spent the rest of the day hanging out in my parents new coach and playing games. What else is there to do in Hope, Arizona?
It was a great weekend and now the parents are back in Idaho safely.
Our second big event of the month was Mackenzie and my trip up north to check out colleges. We flew into Sacramento with plans to check out Sac State, San Francisco State and Sonoma State. MacKenzie fell in love with Sacramento State and can't wait to move up there at the end of July or August. We are working on finding her a roommate.
Now on to college student number two - Hailey - she plans on going to school close to home so in March we will be checking out the local Jr colleges for her decision. She still is leaning on getting her cosmetology license so she can be a hair stylist.
As for Doug and I - work continues to be very busy and Doug still tutors twice a week. I continue to mentor the hurting teens at Life Hurts God Heals and work with Divine Choices.
As our country continue to tumble in this economic situation we must all hold on to our faith that God will bring us through it all and remember to be thankful for the blessings we are all given.
On to March.......
