Today is designated as a shopping day for Suzanne. She is off to Tucson to do a bunch of shopping. She will probably get a bunch of stuff we dont really neeed, but it’s our little way of protesting the that other little protest going on today. I of course will be at work. We […]
Baseball
Its baseball season again for Sean. His team opened up their season today. After seeing some practices over the past few weeks, I must admit, I wasnt expecting much. Sean is again playing catcher and got the starting call today. When it was all over, the Sonoita boys were victorious 12-9. As usual for his […]
Family Reunions
Surprise Surprise! We received a call this weekend from my Mother stating that she wanted to get the whole family together here in Arizona this summer in a family reunion type atmosphere. Sweet!

Happy Birthday Mom!
Happy Birthday to my mother. I wont embarass her by listing her age, but let’s just say she is FINALLY talking about retiring towards the end of this year. It’s long overdue in my opinion, but she enjoys it. While not quite on her birthday, she will be taking a Carribean cruise at the end […]
