The Holidays and more...

So it's been months since anything has been posted, and since I recently finished student teaching and have time on my hands, I was nominated to be the updater. Obviously a lot has happened since July: Jacoby has his official white coat ceremony, we had a mini Harris family reunion, Halloween came(Dad dressed up as who else but Darth Vader, Cody was a rocker from the 80's, though, he could have been mistaken as me according to some lady. Tracy was the King himself, I was a golf ball, Jacoby a golfer, Mack the cutest bomber pilot ever, and Jaxon was a smurf). And the jeep was finished and Jax has actually been driving it for a while...but on Thanksgiving the axle broke and the tire fell off while driving I think(that's what they get for having me update this) and THANKFULLY no one was hurt but the jeep...hopefully it will be up and running again soon...


Oh and I had to add this picture. It's the boys playing Wii dance...it was the funniest thing ever...next time we'll have to get a video.

June and July!!

So even though an attempt was made to update the blog in June, the computer wouldn't download the pictures, so after a lot of frustration, I gave up. But I figured it was worth another shot. Now, it will be an update on June and July. At the end of May we celebrated my Dad and my birthdays with my grandma's delicious fried chicken, creamed corn, and strawberry pie (among other things). It is AMAZING and we are so lucky to have her! Jax and my dad, sold the firebird and are now currently working on a jeep...a 1965 CJ-5? Jacoby helps out a lot and I have even pitched in and helped! My parents also planted a garden a while back, and there is all sorts of good stuff coming up, including some watermelon! And some really awesome carrots(hence the picture below). Hmmm.. I think that is good enough for June.
Now for recently. We started the month off by going to Coronado, California, which is pretty much our favorite place ever. We were able to celebrate the 4th there, and we all LOVED the patriotic, small town feel. But besides dreading returning to the heat, the rest of July has been swell. Below are a few pictures of the last few months. Sorry I'm not better and narrating each picture, but at least I'm updating, right?

Graduation and stuff

Ok, so no one has updated anything lately, so I figured I should, since a lot has happened in the last couple weeks. Jacoby graduated and with that came a weekend full of graduation activities. We went to the students athlete luncheon for graduating seniors, which was a lot of fun. Then the commencement and the one where he actually walks. It made for a long, but fun weekend. I took tons of pics, but these are just a few...




It was fun...THEN, the next weekend we decided to go on a cruise. It was a Caribbean cruise and a blast. I would post some pictures of that, except, we packed up our apartment and our cord is somewhere in a box. Which brings me to the next big thing. We are moving down to AZ this Sunday. We are really excited, but it is bittersweet as well. There are tons of things we will miss here, like family and friends. But we're glad we are only a state away and will be back to visit a lot. Well that is an update on our lives! We'll see all you Arizonans soon!

Last snow storm??

As I'm sitting here in my apartment, there is a snow storm going on outside. Instead of hating it like I usually do, I realize it could be one of my last(for a while anyways). Yes, that's right. For those of you who do not know, Jacoby and I are moving to AZ!! Jacoby is going to medical school at Midwestern, which is in Glendale. And we are soo excited! So I am taking in the snow, and though I will not miss it, I am not completely hating it!!

Since I don't have any snow pics, I thought I would add different pictures of the people we are so excited to soon live by!! They are mostly older pictures and don't have a lot with Jacoby(or Mack) in them, but soon there will be plenty more of ALL of us!








ha....




The family meeting Jacoby.











Well...as you can see, our family is pretty awesome, and we are so excited to get to move to Arizona to be closer to them!

FINALLY an update...

So, I have been waiting for someone in my family to update this blog. Especially, because since the last post, many fun things have happened like Disneyland, Christmas, etc. Well I don't have any of these pics, explaining why I have not done it myself. BUT the day after Christmas, dad, mom, and Jaxon came up to Utah to visit Jacoby and me and we took pictures!!(Thanks to our new camera that Santa gave us.) There's not a ton and my dad took most of them because he forgot his camera, so yay, here they are:

This is us playing Wii...yup, pretty exciting.

The boys all ready to go snowboarding(mom and I went shopping instead.)



My family was lucky enough, ha, to experience the joy of snow while they were here. Ya, I know this is a bad picture, but if you can't tell, it's snowing in the background.



What Arizonans do when it snows....



...they take videos and pictures of it.



Ok, I understand the fascination of the snow, especially because living in Mesa, it is never seen!! So to be able to see it actually snow is a fun thing!! My dad said while it was snowing that it was maybe the 3rd time in his whole life he has ever seen it snow. Well, I used to think like that. But now I live in Utah and dread the weather forecast. Ya, it's pretty to watch, but when you consider driving in it and risking your life to get to school and work, the joy is gone. So it's a good thing this is my last real winter for a while. Only a couple more months...

Anyway, we were so grateful my parents and Jaxon could come visit us. We had so much fun with them and loved showing them around!! We missed Cody, Tracy, and baby Mack though. Hopefully, we'll see them soon!!
