Today TMac packed up some of his toys and told me that he is moving away! Where is he going? Far, far away. That is where some of his cousins in Utah live. Almost weekly he wants to get in the car and go visit his Utah cousins. I say that we can't because they live far away in Utah and he always says, "is that far, far away?" I asked him why he wanted to move and he said that he was upset because too many people are moving away. My sentiments exactly! We've had good friends move out of town and out of state recently and more have plans to leave in the next few months. No one listens when I tell them it is forbidden to leave. I guess I should want to move to a bigger house and I sort of do but then I think about packing up twelve years of collections and a higher mortgage payment and lose the urge. I wish it was as easy as piling up some toys!

Tracy, Amber, TMac and Tot - We love to travel all over Southern California and Western Arizona and we really enjoy playing at our spot on the Colorado River in Blythe, CA. We also visit Parker and Lake Havasu, AZ while at the river. Most of our pictures will be of us hanging out with family and friends at the river, Disneyland, Sea World, beach, parties and activities because we LOVE to PLAY!
Tracy keeps busy working every minute that isn't Sunday and we appreciate his awesome work ethic! He is a contractor/plumber and runs a company with his brother. When he gets precious free time you can find him with the family on a boat, jet ski or playing with his guns. While doing paperwork at home he likes to watch old Western movies. He also volunteers as a leader in our church's local Cub Scout troop. He can fix absolutely anything which is a huge blessing. He can also find anything anyone would be looking for and he gets calls all of the time from family and friends asking where to find things or how to get them fixed.
Amber is a former elementary school teacher who loves being the stay at home, lazy CEO of our family. She hardly ever deserves free time because she procrastinates all of her home chores but she does enjoy taking the boys on outings, trips and play dates all over the West coast, keeping in touch with friends and family via phone and email, reading books, taking tons of photos and scrapbooking. She also works with the local Cub Scouts. She used to be great at playing the flute, piano, singing and speaking Spanish but she really needs to practice!
