Trekkin' to Tucson

OK. We have the drink, candy, sunflower seeds and ipod. We're ready.

We took a trip to Tucson this last weekend for family, spring baseball and lot's of other "Stuff".

On the way over to pick up Carleigh in Thatcher, we saw this sign on the road between Duncan and Safford. Great sign.

On Thursday night, Grandma Beth and Art hosted a great party for some "old" guy who turned 50. Got to see everyone (about 28 of us) and had tons of good food.

Friday morning was spent at the Botanical Park.
The lady in the background behind Garrick and sweet baby Jadyn, was dubbed the "Butterfly Nazi". Let me tell you, when it comes to protecting the harmless, defenseless, poor little fellas, they couldn't have a better protector! She intimidated everyone.


I think the butterfly Nazi missed a couple here behind the kids.

Friday afternoon Pat, Garrick, Uncle John Brewer and Ryan all got to go to the D'Backs game. D'Backs won 9-3. Lots of fun. Altho Garrick got busted for stepping on the dugout by Maryanne, she still took our picture:)

Saturday morning we did an Autism Walk down at University of Arizona campus. Grandma Keeter lead the way!

We then had a game on Saturday afternoon. Cubs vs. Rockies. Mom, Art, Garrick, Dan, Mo & Kali all saw the Rockies shut down the Cubs. There were more Cubs fans than Rockies and it was the Rockies home field! (P.S. - Cubs fans drink ALOT of beer!)

We took Carleigh back to college in Thatcher on our way home Sunday. It was a really fun weekend. Sure was good to see everyone. Kinda glad to be home so we can rest up. We packed alot into just a few days, but it was worth it!

Welcome to the CHEM-DRY family

It's a proud moment in a parents life when their offspring follow in their footsteps. (wipe away the tears).


Carleigh interviewed and was hired as a part-time CSR (Customer Service Representative) at Chem-Dry of Albuquerque and New Mexico.

She was hired because of her sweet disposition

and advanced education degrees

OK. Seriously now. We are really happy and grateful to have an outstanding person like Carleigh at our office. She will be a real asset, just like her Mom and older sisters have been. Now I really have to stop, cause the tears are starting. Love Ya Carleigh!

P.S. - Just in case you are wondering. She is only working this week while she is on spring break from EA, but she'll be back in May!
