Back from Mazatlan

We arrived back home today from a week, over Thanksgiving, in Mazatlan.  Sure is cold but good to be home.  Now we can start thinking about Christmas and all the fun of the season.  Enjoy the next few weeks as Christmas approaches.  Remember the reason for the season and the less fortunate.

October 2011 update

Since my last posting in June, I've found a job.  I started my new job with an investment firm in September.  I'm really enjoying it and grateful that I was able to find a job in this economy.  My husband, has gone back to work too. Been on his new job for 6 months now. Also, just purchased a new car.  2011 Camry XLE.  Beautiful "Blue Ribbon" color with every feature I could want or need.   

We will be headed to Mazatlan in November and sadly will be putting our condo on the market.  We are grateful we had the experience of living in another country.  We realize not everyone gets that opportunity in their lifetime.  We were able to fulfill our dream of living in Mazatlan.  Now, it's on to whatever life brings our way.

Update on our life

Well we're into summer now here in Yakima.  Some hot days but still alot of wind.  Sure hoping it stops soon and we have consistent summertime weather.

Still struggling with the need to work in this down economy.  I still haven't found a job and my prospects are not looking good.  Actually quite discouraged as of this date.  Greg is not really happy with his job either.  Just don't know where all of this is headed but our lives are a bit in turmoil.  You just never know where the road of life will take you but I still believe everything happens for a reason.  So we'll see what happens.

January 2011 about over......

Yep, Christmas is over and it's already the end of January.  How time flies. 

Greg and I are making plans for a 2 week vacation to Mazatlan in April.  Actually, April 2 - 17.  We are going to be staying at our timeshare, Torres Mazatlan.  We will be looking into trying to sell our condo while we are there.  Not sure how hard that will be but we are expecting it to take some time as the economy isn't good in Mexico right now.  We are looking forward to seeing our Mazatlan friends, especially Dick and Jan, and our friends at Torres.  Oh and the wonderful tropical weather down there.  We have enjoyed the winter wonderland and all the snow here in Yakima this year but do miss the nice warm temps in Maz.  It's been wonderful to be here for the arrival of our three new granddaughters last year and the visits we've had with all of them. 

Greg and I have been working part time jobs but are looking for full time positions with evenings and weekends off and hopefully medical benefits.

Our posts are certainly not as interesting as they were from Mazatlan.  Lots of adventures down there, some good some bad.  Anyway, hope all is going well in your lives and you are healthy and happy.

Visit with our new granddaughter Kaylyn Renee

I just had a wonderful visit with Kaylyn and her mommy and daddy last weekend.  We just hung out and had some quality time together on Saturday and went out to dinner that evening and Kaylyn took Grandma to the Hobby Lobby craft store.  Just loved it!  Then, on Sunday went to church with them.  I had alot of time to just play and get to know Kaylyn better.  She is just such a pretty little girl and warms your heart everytime she smiles at you.  Her mommy and daddy are great parents and doing a wonderful job working as a team in raising Kaylyn.  So proud of them.
