Redneck Edition Racing – Prescott Valley May 2016 1

Prescott Valley, AZ (May 28 & 29, 2016) – Still being excited from the Lake Havasu race, we headed out to Prescott Valley.  We remember visiting there years ago, and man – what a change in just that short time.  The town has grown so much and there seems to be a lot more people in town.  With the track not being on the main highway, […]

Redneck Edition Racing – Lake Havasu May 2016

    Lake Havasu, AZ (May 14, 2016) – Our first AZOP race was in Lake Havasu, AZ.  This was about a 6 hour drive from home and one that seemed to take a long time.  We had to leave after David got off of work, and ended up not pulling in about 1:00 in the morning.  It was still about 105 degrees, even at […]

Spring Time Is For The Birds! 7

Spring Time Is For The Birds! Now that Spring is almost here, I get to see a lot of the little birds that left for the winter, coming back from their migration. Many people think that all birds fly south for the winter, but in my yard, all you have to do is look around, and you’ll see many feathered friends that have stuck it out even […]

Have You Heard of Stickman Stew? 11

Stickman Stew Gives Back!   I recently heard about the “Stickman Stew” company, and a promotion they are running to help children during the Christmas season.  Anything like that gets my attention.  We, as a community, can do so much for our neighbors by helping during the Christmas season.  So many people are out of work, or working like crazy just to meet the bills, and […]

Review of “Tambo’s Traveling Crafts & Creations” 5

 I heard about “Tambo’s Traveling Crafts & Creations” from U.S. Family Guide and got to test some of the products out.  The customer service was amazing, shipping time was a lot quicker than I had expected and there were some great things in the bag to do.  This would be absolutely perfect for a daycare, or church group.  Even if you’re planning on going on […]


Giveaway & Review of “Forgive & Remember” by Charlotte Fortier 4

      Forgive and Remember A Journey from Forgiven to Forgiving   I had heard about this book on my friend’s Facebook page prior to it being released and couldn’t wait to read it.  Now, I have no person that I need to forgive, but I was interested in the story and hearing about a life teaching.  The book is written really well and […]
