ASU v. NAU

AND WE'RE OFF...

Willcox, Arizona

I finally went to see the Macumber's and Fleming's down in Willcox.  The new Fleming Thoroughbred Farm is awesome, and I was pretty impressed with the little bit of Willcox that I got to check out.  There are beautiful views of mountain ranges, and it was quite a bit cooler at night.  

As soon as I arrived, Kash gave me a complete tour of his new house... he really needs more toys, so if anyone can donate... so kidding.  He's got 

a lot to keep himself busy! 

Friday night we went to see the Willcox Football team take on Empire High School, which is located in Vail - yes Vail, Arizona.  Who knew?  

You might not have thought Willcox to be a big golfing mecca... oh yeah - across the Graham County line, it's all the rage.  Jarrod and Gerald are demonstrating how it's done.  

Kash is also getting in on the action. 

I was not my usual thorough picture taker, but I did manage to get some pictures of the Farm.  Not many of the actual people I went to see, though... I don't know what was going on... Here you can see just a little bit of the hard work everyone's been doing. 

Camp Tontozona

Sadly, this may be the last year that ASU Football heads up to Camp Tontozona.  But "The Bubble" may produce great results this year - who knows... I guess we'll see next weekend.  Anyhow, Lonnie and I headed up to see what we could see and hang out with the Strauss' at their place in Overgaard.  

We had a blast with Kris and Becky as well as Bailey, Mia and Macy.  We ate some great food and had some cocktails... good times! 

Matt the Bat!  

Matt visited the Heber/Overgaard area some time ago and decided that he would move to the area.  Happily, he moved onto the Senior Strauss' porch.  We decided to go introduce ourselves at about 2:00 in the morning.  He was very hospitable...

That's it from Camp this year - and maybe forever.  No matter where we get ready for the season, GO DEVILS! 

Mat the Bat video - not for the faint of heart! 

See ya!

The Kade show has now ended it's tour... 

We had so much fun with him and already miss him but I know he was very happy to get home to his family, his bed, and his puppies!  

I'm sure everyone is sick of my photos but here is a highlight reel of his visit.

Space Chimps!

Before going to the movie with Cooper and Izzy, we hit up the home of the Phoenix Coyotes!































Kade and Cooper

Hugs!

Ice Skating!

What a lovely day for skating it was!



Kade did an awesome job working on his skating skills...
















I'm so not going to lie, I can't believe I did not fall while trying to take pictures. I was probably more afraid of falling than Kade was!









Unfortunately, my camera ran out of power before Kade was skating with just a little help... he did so great!!!

The Heard Museum

Gramma took us to the Heard Museum which featured Native American Art and History

This piece covered the entire wall - Tony Abeyta, Artist







Does this need any comment?


Brrrrrrrrrr....


















Please ignore my poor photo skills - these were made by Younger Native American Artisians... I think they're just lovely.




















If you grew up in Phoenix, you did it too... everyone has to grind the corn!
