A Noteworthy Day

Josh and I have officially paid off all of our medical bills! That may not sound like a big deal, but after all the appointments and ER visits last year...it is. While doing our taxes back in March, we found that we paid (in cash) over $17,000 in medical bills last year alone. (Not including the 6 monthly payments we made this year). It's hard seeing that number and thinking of all the ways we WISHED we could have spent that money (cough cough....a car!), but our balance is now $0 and we are both in good health. We did it!!! Now if the federal govement would just send us our tax return. Come on...it's JULY! I'm going to start charging them interest.

Disneyland and a trip to AZ

First I have to start by saying, mickey ears are the cutest thing in the world. A few weeks ago Kristen, Brent, and Logan came for a long weekend visit. We were beyond excited to see them! Of course, we had to go to Disneyland while they were here. We went on Logan's favorite ride....the train! We even got to go in Walt Disney's private car, the "Lilly Belle." Besides it being ridiculously hot, we had a great time!






















Last weekend we left Friday afternoon for Arizona. We stayed with Auntie and visited Grandma and Grandpa's house and spent lots of time with Natalie, Robert, and baby John! We went swimming Saturday, had a taco night, and just relaxed!It was very nice. Sunday morning we packed up the car, drove down to Mesa, and visited (way too briefly) with our good friends the Slades! Their newest addition JJ was being blessed! He is such a handsome chunky baby. It was so fun to see the girls again too, they are growing up way too fast! Unfortunately we had to rush home RIGHT after the blessing, but we are hoping to see everyone again soon!
