Week TWO & THREE...

Okay okay... So I know that I have been slacking at blogging. I was so busy with school last week that I just couldn't do it! So over the last week we have been through Five States: Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas! Another thing that I have been slacking on is taking pictures but I have taken some!!!

While in New Mexico we were able to stop off at my grandparents house in Tijeras and we spent two nights and one day it was a great visit!!! I love being able to see my family especially since its not an all the time thing!

After that we had to hurry down to El Paso and unload on Friday, Sept. 11th we ended up staying in El Paso for one because we were all tired and for two because the rain was so bad that it was hard to drive with all the flooding. The day after we headed to Killeen, TX that was a long drive but right in the middle of that we stopped at a rest area and played for a good hour... we just ran around, kicked the ball, and climbed trees. After that Mackenzie took a great nap and so did I!!!

All last week we unloaded and loaded in Killeen and then headed to The Woodlands... right outside of Houston... OMG do I love the Phx heat compared to that nasty humidity!!! That night we drove up to Wichita Falls, TX which was a long 5 and a half hour drive with a screaming two year old!!!

Side note: It is rough to have a two year old that is going through TERRIBLE TWOS and going through so many changes! Its rough in a small truck and a hyper father and a psycho mom! lol But we have started getting a good system going!!!

While in Wichita Falls, TX we unloaded on an Air Force Base... I got a couple pics of two different planes. I wish we could have walked around the base but we had to get out of there to make it to Oklahoma City by night fall.

So that brings us to today... Last night we were in Oklahoma City and this morning we ran around and did a few things (like get my stroller) =) Got some groceries and then headed out of town. After about a four hour drive were in Salina, KS. Right now we are on our way to COLD Denver, CO. =)

Next installment hopefully to come by this weekend... Love to all back home cant wait to see everyone!!! xoxoxo!!!

Week ONE!!!

Hello to all our family and friends back in AZ. Well we have officially made it through one week of traveling together! =) There have been HUGE bumps in the road and it has been tough getting the little one to sleep through the night and it has definietly been a challenge to keep her attitude in check but she is getting a lot better with everything now!

So for week one we were able to spend it in BEAUTIFUL Colorado Springs. I am loving all the green and mountains and needless to say the weather is AMAZING!!! Before getting to the Springs as everyone seems to call it we were able to stop off and see Gary's mom, Step-dad and brother in Alamosa, CO thats were we dropped Gary's buddy 'KC' off so he will live the remainder of his life out roaming around their land. =)

The first day that we were here Gary worked on the army base here Ft. Carson. I have to say one of the nicest bases I have seen. The homes are beautiful and the people that we moved were so nice! After that Gary worked off base the next day... This past weekend we got a hotel room because we all needed to get out of the truck and sleep in a real bed. Although we didn't get out of the room to do anything except go to the store it was nice!

As for our Labor day we spent it having a great time just hanging out with each other we got Mackenzie's monster trucks out and had races and jammed to music had a couple beers and then I made dinner and then hung out in the truck with the monster asleep and we are watching a comedy. One fun/interesting thing that did happen today was that we found a little bunny rabbit. He/she couldn't have been more than a year old... Gary tried to pick him up and succeded once and then the bunny just jumped out of his hands and all of a sudden we saw the mom and backed off...

Mackenzie hanging out....
