Whoo! Crazy spring break this year! Phoenix was a blast! We have a great time! We flew in from Pocatello on Thursday night with Edythe and Phil. We landed later in the evening and by the time we got the car and found the condo everyone was starving! So for dinner we had (Yay!) In and Out! We headed back to the condo after that and everyone was ready for bed.
The next day was the first night game we have attended in Phoenix. We watched the San Fransisco Giant v. The Oakland Athletics. We had awesome seats right behind home plate. Benji Molina (Of the famous Molina brothers) is the catcher for the Giants and his wife and new baby were sitting right behind us!
The second day we went to my favorite ball park (Maryvale) and saw the Brewers and the Padres. I was excited because for the second year in a row I got see David Eckstein play! We sat directly behind the Padres dugout. It was perfect weather and perfect seats! I even got a coach to throw me a ball!
That night Becca flew in to join us. We had In and Out for dinner again Yum Yum Yum! My favorite!
The third day we saw The Mariners at the Dodgers. We seriously had the best seats! We were right down the first base line. It was SO cool! Ichiro was standing like 6 ft. away from us! Chris caught a foul ball hit by Ryan Garko. The little boy sitting behind us was a big Mariners fan and my husband is a really nice guy so he gave it the little boy. The little boy said “I have been to 11 Mariners games and I have never seen them win!”
We went to the most fabulous restaurant I have ever been to! Yes, even better than In and Out It is called Chino Bandito. It was featured on Diners, Drive-in’s and Dives on Food Network so we decided to check it out. It is Chinese Mexican Fusion. It was AMAZING! Really spicy jerk fried rice, spicy sweet and sour chicken wrapped in a tortilla and covered in cheese with sweet ginger black beans! OMG! Also, homemade snickerdoodle cookies! I could eat it every day!
We had an amazing time in Phoenix! We couldn’t have asked for better seats or better weather!

I guess one of the biggest things is that I’m not doing band this year.  This is the first time since 5th grade that I haven’t been playing my flute.  It is really odd and I miss it.  Brooke and Zach aren’t here anymore though’ so it wouldn’t be the same anyway.

Summer is over now and it is back to school.  I had a really tough time getting in to my classes again this semester, but I am finally now registered (The second week) and I’m now just waiting for my financial aid to go through.

I got a job at Goody’s, which is wonderful.  Chris and I joke that my benefits  are better than his because we get 50% off all of our food now   Also, I have started baking and selling my cookies there.  The first day they ALL sold out in 3 hours!

Chris is still loving his job at the  Bureau and he is of course very successful at it.  He is really looking forward to college football starting on Thursday!

I am sure now that I am sitting in class all day everyday I am sure that I’ll be back on here all the time again!

We had lots of fun riding our new bikes this summer.

We were home for one night and Chris Clark came for the weekend.  I hadn’t seen him since my birthday so it was really fun!  We didn’t really do anything, mostly homework and errands, but we got a new Wii game and it was so fun!  You have to dance and totally make a fool of yourself.

School is keeping me so busy!  I can’t seem to get caught up on anything!  I am doing really well in my classes, even thought I feel like I’m totally slacking.
