Phoenix

This week has been a little slow. We are out in Phoenix right now. We came out for the Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in Scottsdale, Az. Clint and I had a good time out there on Saturday and Sunday. While I was not too interested in the actual auction occurring, it was still amazing to see what kind of money people are willing to spend on cars. I did enjoy walking around all the tents and looking at the cars: 1920 and 30 models are so smooth, 1970 Corvettes, a sunrise red Lambourghini Diablo. Those of course making me wish I had that kind of money! Besides that, there were alot of vendors with some pretty cool stuff like paintings, jewelry, brass sculptures. Pretty much anything you could think of. I don't know if it's something that we will ever come to again but at least I can now say "Been there, Done that!"

While we were at the auction, the kids stayed home with their cousins, Erin and Kolby. Lorelle and Erin are the only 2 girls on this side of the family so it is something very special for them to get together. They just adore each other! Erin is 18 so there is a 13 year age gap, but Erin does not mind at all that Lorelle just wants to follow her around and be where she is. Kolby is fantastic with the kids too, something you might not expect from a 14 year old boy. Tyler LOVES being around all the males. Ron and Clint come from the exact same mold, look alike, act alike, dress alike. So Tyler thinks it's just cool that he's there wearing his baseball hat, t-shirt and jeans just like the big boys.

I have been able to connect to work at night so I have not had to take any vacation. And with it being Mountain Time, I get off work at 5AM so I am able to get a little extra sleep during the day which is very nice. I might get spoiled out here and decide to move it! haha

And through it all, there has been plenty of time to visit with family, which is always enjoyable. Like I said earlier, Clint and Ron are so much alike, it's kind of funny because Lana (my sister-in-law) and I are so much alike people have often thought that we are sisters. So us girls and guys have had a good time going back and forth with each other!
