Community Service, feels good!

This is our team at work. We took some time to give back to the community and prepared dinner for the families that are staying at the Ronald McDonald House at the Phoenix Childrens hospital. It was fun to get together and work as a team to help others. There was an older lady who came in to eat dinner who said that she had a horrible day and had just lost her grandson. It broke my heart and also made me thankful for the experience of helping other human beings. I am inspired to continue to give back to the community.

Mom's Day Continued
















The highlight of the day was seeing the Akins! We haven't seen them for about a year or so. The babies are so adorable and so big! It was our first time meeting Hayden and she is so precious and LOVED her dresses that uncle Jimmy got for her. We had a fab lunch with all of our Costco faves and really enjoyed the afternoon!

Mothers Day
















Today was our 3rd annual Mother's Day Walk to Empower. We piled in the car and headed to Tempe Town lake early this morning! Mollie joined us too even though we left at 620am! Here's some pics~

Our Last Day in VA!
















Monday was our last day in Virginia. Since Sam was back to school after an awesome weekend with us, Jimmy and I set out to do some sight seeing. We headed toward Williamsburg. First we wanted to visit the Berkeley Plantation, circa 1690. It was very beautiful, green historic, etc. Here's some pics. Then we set out to the Williamsburg Winery and afterward we had about 1.25 hours in Williamsburg. These 3 things that we did in a short amount of days should of taken us about 2.5 days if we wanted to do it right and see EVERYTHING possible. It was a lot of fun and I would love to go back. The wine tasting was AWESOME and we learned alot about Virginia Wineries- they are 4th in the nation for the # of wineries.
