Memorial Weekend


This year for Memorial Weekend Alan's dad rented a cabin and we all went up there from Thursday night til Monday morning. Yes all 12 adults and 7 kids! We really had a fun time, even thought it rained for the majority of the time. We were able to play some games, go fishing, play some basketball, and even relax. The cabin was big enough for each of the families to get their own room. Alan and I got the closet as our room :) Not really but the room was small enough to be a closet! ha.


This is the outside of the cabin. It was a pretty nice size cabin. It had 6 bedrooms, and 3 1/2 bath.


Inside of the cabin it had a nice little family room that had a flat screen t.v. The guys were able to watch the NBA basketball games, and the kids were able to play the WII.

The kitchen was very beautiful. It was almost as if there were two kitchens because it was split into two areas. One had the sink and stove. The other had the refridgerator and a sink

Next to the kitchen was a nice table where we were able to eat and play games.
Then when you went up stairs they had a nice size loft that had a foosball table and a pool table. The kids really enjoyed the pool table! Upstairs was where 5 of the bedrooms were located and 2 bathrooms.
And this is where we slept! It was very small but perfect for us.

Looking down at Alan from the loft. He was relaxing after a long day!

We drove from the cabin to Blue Ridge Resovior where we were able to fish. Alan was the first person to catch a fish. It was a nice size rainbow trout!

After Alan caught a fish, then I caught a fish! My niece and I actually caught it together, our lines got tangled together and we both brought the fish in. We did catch the biggest fish!
It was very beautiful!


We really had a fun time! SInce we've been married we have been able to do a lot of camping and fishing together. This is something that we love to do with each other. Thanks to Alan's dad for taking us to a cabin, and letting us relax.

NYS Basketball and The DBACKs Game

These last few weeks Alan has been able to help his brother Phil with a little basketball team through NYS. My nephews Brayden and Eli are on the team. They are really cute when they play! Its hard to teach a bunch of 4, 5 and 6 year olds how to play defense, offense, rebound, dribble and shoot. However, the team really did a great job this year. There are 5 kids on the team, 4 boys and 1 girl. Alan has really enjoyed working with his brother and the little kids.




The National Youth Sports (NYS) had a thing at the DBACKS game last night and the players and the coaches were able to walk on the field. There were so many people walking the field! People walked for about 25 minuets. It was fun to go to the game and be able to relax and watch a baseball game.

Alan and I went to go walk around and we saw Mark Grace!!

I love my MOM


This year for mother's day Alan and I were going to send my mom flowers, but I thought she needed something better. So I talked to my sisters Kristy and Kelly to see what they were thinking about doing. I got on the computer and started searching for mother's day gift ideas. While I was looking I found a website "Hersheygifts.com" so i begin looking at stuff. I ran across a HUGE 2lb chocolate Hershey Bar. This was like no other Hershey bar it was 2lbs, and the coolest thing about it is that you could personalize the hershey bar. On the hershey bar with yellow writing we wrote "All the we are we owe to you, Our Mother!" Awww... it was so cute! She was really happy when she called me to tell me she got it, and it was from all of her children so it made it even more special. I bet she thinks she has some crazy kids :)
