Disneyland
















As you can tell by pictures and for those of you who read Kathy's blog...I went to Disneyland with the Trev and Kat fam! We had the funnest time! I loved being there with Parks, Ev, Fletch, and Joss - they made it so much fun! (Trev and Kat you guys were ok to be with :) JK!!) Actually I have been to Dland more times with Kathy than I have anyone else - we first went to Dland together when we were 14 years old! Who knew 15 years later we would still be going and this time with her 4 kids! The boys were so cute and they braved all the big kid rides - we somehow talked/tricked them into the Tower of Terror! I never thought I would go to the haunted mansion 6+ times... but I did and I loved it more everytime! It even made me teary eyed (get help!) dont know if it was because that is Parker and Ev's fav movie and they were excited or if I just got excited for Christmas - prob a combo of both!! Can't wait to go at Christmas time although I may lose my mind (in a good way) because two of my favorite things...Christmas + Disneyland = OVERWHELMING!! Thanks Trev and Kat for letting me tag along!

Some excitement in My Life!

So as many of you know my dental career started back in the day right after high school when good ol' Dr Stapley so graciously offered to train me to be his assistant (still do not know what possessed him to do such a thing) But boy am I grateful! so long story short...I worked there for several years until I decided to do the hygiene thing - when I started school - not working for Stapley felt like the weirdest thing in the world...after all it was all I knew for ten years - After I graduated I started temping -- this made me really really miss the comfort of Dr. Stapley's office! Unfortunately, for me, his hygienists have both been there for several years and there was not a position open there......UNTIL LAST WEEK!!! One of his hygienists has decided to move to California....And guess who is headed back!! YEP TRACIE!! I could not be happier! This has been such a blessing because temping has been SO SLOW right now I have not really been working enough! So I am super grateful for this opportunity and cant wait to start on the 20th for Dr. Stapley and crew.....again!!

My other exciting news is that I am going to Oregon in November! Arlene, Tonja, and I are headed to Seaside to stay on the coast in a beach house for 5 days! We are going to celebrate Arlene's big 3-0!! I am super excited although I think we might freeze to death! But I cant wait!! I love traveling with these two...we have been to Cali a few times together and we conquered a ten day trip with 6 girls in NYC! I'm excited for our new adventure! If anyone has been there or has suggestions of what we should do lmk! Tonja and Arlene don't worry I have the count down going we leave in
26 days!

NOT GOOD!!

What beats getting pulled over???

Having your 2 nieces with you when it happens...

What beats that???

Having your Brother Sister-in-law there to watch the whole thing

And what can beat that.....

Having Chad send me this picture message while the cop is writing my ticket!!

Thanks for documenting Chad....



Yep that is me....Congrats!

Now this happened about a month ago... HOWEVER...I got the privelege of going to the Mesa court house today! HATED IT!!! I do not know if anyone has had this wonderous oppurtunity...but turns out it was pretty gross! I wanted to bathe in hand sanitizer after I left! Luckily I ended up with a bargain priced ticket of $173 and I made a friend named Angel... who is not only 20 and headed to prison but has been been there 2 times before...Don't worry he assured me he was a good person and not to be afraid him! And I wasn't....FALSE!! There was a dude who looked like Snoop Dogg and was yelling obscenities at the top of his lungs...Also met a pregnant girl who proceeded to tell me she had to see a judge because she had a suspended license because she had 3 unpaid tickets....Not sure why everyone decided to tell me there legal issues...But it was FULL ENTERTAINMENT!!! Lets just say I was more than grateful to get the heck out of there! And I have renewed my commitment to be a law abiding citizen!!
