The July Birthday Extravaganza!!!

So better late than never! We finally got to celebrate Tierra's 4th Birthday as well as Julie's Birthday! It was a bunch of fun! We had a taco bar and ate some delicious snicker's cake with ice cream (of course) and watched Julie and Tierra open presents. It's always a blast when we get together as a family!
A special thanks to Ledah on whipping me into shape and encouraging me to get some new blogs posted! This ones for you! :)

A much needed update!

As usual with all that goes on in my life, I forget to update my blog and let you all know what in the world we are up to over here in Priceville! As many of you know Parker and I took a fabulous trip to the tropical destination of Hawaii! We went with Parker's family and were gone from the 6th of June to the 21st. What a trip it was! We first went on a seven day cruise to the islands. We hit Maui, the big island of Hawaii, Oahu, and Kauai. Then the next week after that we were at the Price's time share condo on Kauai (my favorite island).

Here are a few of the things we did while on our vacation: We got to ride scooters on Kona (in the rain, and we got drenched!), kayaked up the Wialua River and hiked to a waterfall, hiked the Nepali coast, snorkeled with the fishes, went to the Polynesian Cultural Center, went to Pearl Harbor, laid out on many a beach, swam in the ocean, ate lots of shaved ice, watched Parker paddle board and boggy board as well as jump off cliffs and rope swings, we ate delicious food, and of course shopped A LOT...almost too much. Yeah, it was too much. Good thing vacations like that one only come once in a long while. If not, we'd be homeless! :) Needless to say we had a great time, and as an added bonus I got a pretty nice tan, which has now mostly faded. Oh-well. It was nice while it lasted anyway.
We have enjoyed our summer thus far. My health has still been on a rocky road, but through Parker's support he helps me keep a positive attitude.
I know heaven will help me find answers and help. I guess I just need to be patient and continually prayerful. I will be going to a new doctor on August 26th to see what he thinks. Perhaps I'll add him to my exclusive team of specialists. He'll have to prove himself worthy first. :) I'll let you know if he makes the cut. lol!

Parker is busy with work and also working on adding on his multi-engine rating/certification. He's flying out tomorrow bright and early to fly some executives down to Phoenix with his friend Jaren, (of whom has the plane and also whose clients these are). Jaren wants his clients to get to know Parker so that they will trust him to fly them places in the future.
It's a opportunity that Parker is excited about. We hope he can get his rating quickly so he can earn a little money by flying these gentlemen around.
So that is the latest!!! Coming soon: my post from our July Birthday Bash! So check in again in a few days to see the madness! :)
Much love to you all!
