Catch-up: Tucson Thanksgiving in Pictures

7 Years

Seven years ago today on a cold, snowy December morning, I married the love of my life. He is caring, kind, sweet, forgiving, loving, passionate, tender and giving. I am thankful every day for my dear Claron. Happy anniversary, honey!

In a strange turn of events, my friend, Kristy and her fiance (now husband) Chopper, also got married that day... in the same temple... at the same time! We did not plan this. Happy anniversary, Kristy & Chopper!

A different kind of Princess

This is Princess. She is my Nana's EIGHTEEN year old cat. Eliza loves her.

A Picture for Poppop

Dear Daddy (aka Poppop),

This could be you!

Sucker!!!

Love,

Your daughter & granddaughter

Fun with Trader Joes

Dear Trader Joes,

Are you aware that even tall toddlers/preschoolers fit in one of your handy-dandy bags? Well, apparently Eliza is.

With love,

The Ridges

Monsters Vs. Aliens

Eliza loves the movie Monsters vs. Aliens. I would rate it just alright. The other day she was casting for the movie. Here are her decisions:

Girl knows what is going on. Raaaawwwwr!!!

Finally, a BREAK... maybe

This has been a rough trip, but a great trip. One of the downers is that Eliza spilled orange soda all over her car seat. I washed the cover, but the yellow is a bit more orange. This would definitely fix it.

My heart just overflowed

Eliza just climbed up on my lap, laid her head on my chest and fell asleep. Ahhhhhh....

Too old, too fast

I took these pictures this morning to show the beautiful outfit that Julia brought Eliza from Vietnam, but instead I got a shock at how big my girl looks. She looks school age in this picture.

Here she is looking more like a 2 year old.

*Sigh*

No, I don't miss the change of seasons

I took this on Saturday.
