And the winner is....


Well, its true. We just found out that Gary was accepted to the graduate program at NAU. We are really excited! He will be doing the Community Counseling master's program first and then finish with a PhD. in Counseling Psychology. He starts school in August so we will probably move at the beginning of August. I am so proud of him! And we are both so grateful that we were accepted to a good program close to our families. Its going to be very interesting to have a white christmas this year! And if anyone knows of a good place in the valley to buy snow gear let me know! Its kind of bittersweet because we are leaving the only place we've ever known as home...but what a fun adventure it will be :)

Vacation Pics!

This last weekend Gary and I went with my family (the Winwards) down to Rocky Point. We had such a blast! We went and sat by the pool, sat on the beach, and basically relaxed ourselves into a coma. The weather was nice and warm. And you can't beat that view...



Here are my nephews hanging onto my dad and Gary for dear life...that water was a little chilly!





We rented a Wave Runner for a little on Saturday. It was a lot of fun!




My nephews Owen and Corbin are so cute! We had so much fun hanging out with them.



Our last night we drove into town and ate at a cute restaurant called The Crow's Nest.

Afterwards, in true Winward fashion, we went and had some Thrifty ice cream.




yes, that is a bar behind us and no, we didn't sample it :)



This is at Cholla Bay right next to Rocky Point. It is really fun to look for sea shells and stuff because the tide change is so drastic there. We stopped by in the morning at low tide.
