Home Sweet Home

We are finally back in Flagstaff and are loving every minute of it. We are sooooooo happy to be out of california. We are all moved it and almost all unpacked. We still have a trip to our storage place to move everything out of there. One more trip and we are officially moved into our new apartment. Ben starts school tomorrow and has unofficial track practice tomorrow as well. As for me, its finding a job here which has been tough. We thought leaving early would be a great idea for finding a job but everyone said No were not hiring yet come back in two weeks. Dang it! Hopefully I will be able to find a job soon means I have open avaliablity. Please be praying for finding a job! Anyways as soon as the house is clean I will take pictures and post them on here. Its nothing special that is for sure, the kitchen...if you can even call that is a little small but what can you do.

Hope everyone has a good week

Back in Fresno..... for 5 more days






We got back from Chicago yesterday. It was so much fun. On Thursday, we went to dinner with grandpa. We had the best chicken I have ever eaten. Oh I so wish I lived there, I would eat there all of the time. Friday, Ben and I drove up to Milwaukee to meet his mom's grandparents to give them Rocky. Friday was the sadist day of my life. Giving away my baby was so sad. I miss him sooooooo much, but he is in a good home now. After we dropped off the puppy, we drove to Chicago. Once we got there it was raining so we went into the Water Tower mall and shopped. We got a lot of cool stuff. Ben got a really cute Hollister button up shirt, and at Macy's he got 2 dress shirts and a tie for dirt cheap. We found a Chicago Cubs store and got a lot of cubs stuff. We got grandpa a Cubs clock to replace the Brewers one. We got way sweet cups, Ben got fuzzy dice for his car that have the cubs logo on them. For dinner we went to Gino's pizza and got real deep dish pizza. The best pizza I have ever had!!! Than we took the L back up. Saturaday was great grandpa's 93rd birthday party. We started out by everyone doing a chore, I was in charge of 3 girls making fruit salad. Ben was doing the corn. After that we went to Gurney Mills mall and we got more sweet stuff. We first got a pair of shoes, I got Addias shoes with the purple strips and Ben got more white shoes to throw out his other ones. Than we went to Bakers shoe store and I got way sweet heels for 7.50. Heck yeah man. Unforuntitally they didnt have my size in the cutest shoes I wanted. I was really sad. I still want those shoes. Than we went to Sports Authority and we got Chicago Bears stuff, I got a sweet Bears jacket, it looks like a cowgirl jacket. Cutest thing ever. Also got a beanie to keep my ears warm come winter. Ben got little decals for the cars. Than we had to go back. We didnt even get through half of the mall before we had to leave. I so want to go back to that mall. Once we got back home we started playing the Wii with the family, than everyone got there we had an amzing dinner. After dinner we went a played round robin ping pong. That was way fun. Than we played more Wii. On Sunday, we went to church which was really fun. Than we got back and had lunch of Ribs and BBQ chicken. So good, after that we went to Lake Geniva. It started raining again and we got stuck in an arcade for a while. It was kind of fun. Once the rain let up we ran for the car and went back home. We had pizza for dinner and played the family game of Rook, where ben won. After that we played more Wii. And went to bed. Than the next morning we had to wake up at 4:30 am to be at the airport.

Now we are at home and we have started packing before we leave forever!!!! We are sooooooooooo excited to be leaving Fresno and going back to flag. We miss it there so much. I will be sad to be leaving the girls I met here, the pool, and the palm trees. That I will miss but other than that I cant wait to leave.

Leaving for the windy city


Our baby boy Rocky whom is no longer going to be in our family. :(
The windy city, pictures from last time we were there.

Tomorrow morning... ugh at 4 am we leave for the airport to go to Chicago. It is Ben's great grandpa's 93rd birthday on the 10th of this month. How exciting. I get to see his family again whom I love so much. They are awesome. On Friday, we are sending our puppy Rocky to his new home. :( very sad, but after that we are going into the city and having a good time. I love Chicago soooooooooooooooooooo much. Its awesome. I am so happy to be going back there. However I am not happy about getting up at 3:30 to leave means Ben and I normally go to bed at 2 am. We are planning on staying up all night and watching movies together as our last family night together.

We are also in the process of packing everything up for when we move back to flagstaff. Ugh, I hate packing so much, this is the 3rd time in less than 8 months that we have moved. Thank the Lord its the last time (hopefully) till Ben graduates in a year and a half to two years. Whooooo.
