CF Walk

As many of you know we have two daughters that have Cystic Fibrosis and every year for the last few years we have done a walk to help raise money for the research program. Ray and I try to go to it as much as we can. It has grown over the years and we have the good fortune of meeting lots of really great poeple. If you go to the link on this web site under Alethia & Joe you will see our Oklahoma kids at the CF walk in Oklahoma City. Because it is so hard for them to travel to Arizona they started this year to walk in Oklahoma we love that they support there sisters. After all Family is the only thing in life that is always there for each other. We hope and pray that all of you take the opportunity to spend time together as familys. Here are just a few of the pictures we took of the event. This is our family shirt.

Flood

As some of you know we had some very big storms and had some flooding this year. I thought it would help you that have been here to get an idea of the amount of water I would put these pictures on my blog. This is the end of the walkway on the river, you will see another picture of the walkway down a few pictures.This is a pictures about a year ago at almost the same place. If you look at the gaurdrail it is in both pictures and you can see the top of the green sign in the picture above. The people in the picture are Ray of course and Dave and Anna McCorkle.

Family Picture

We had a chance to have all of our children meet in Oklahoma so of course we took they opportunity to take a family picture. This is the first picture that we have that is not out of date when we took it, because we are all here and no one else is on the way YET. The day was so cold and the kids did so good. We had to sit in the cars between pictures to let the kids get warm, but all in all it was very memorable. Ray and I so look forward to these precious times with all of our family, as you can see we can't stop smiling. Always remember life is to short to not enjoy these special times.On the back row Left to Right Curtis, Joe, RJ, Ray, Sam & Hans
Second row Crystal, Vance, Alyse, Alethia, Ashley, Carla, Olivia, Ella, Kelsie, Holly & Breann
