Time to catch up!

Its been forever since I last blogged...I forget that I even have a blog! Not much has been going on with Drew and I. He finished up Spring Ball and had a few weeks off before summer training started. During that time he went home to Utah for about a week and enjoyed some time with family and friends...He has been busy all summer with classes and training. Football season is just around the corner and we can't wait!! As for me, I have just been working at the hotel and enjoying the sun on my days off. My sister Sydney moved down here in May for her summer internship at Raytheon. This is her third summer down here and it has helped me a lot to have someone down here that I can hang out with. We go work out at LA Fitness together every night and that has been a lot of fun.

My mom and Toni came down in June to visit for a while. We went to the zoo and went shopping....I remembered to take my camera (surprise!) and snapped a few photos! Toni came down again in July and spent a little over a week visiting. It was so much fun! A lot of time was spent at the pool and just relaxing, which is exactly what I needed. One night we went out to dinner and that was the only night I ended up taking pictures! I am a slacker when it comes to pictures. I will post what I have though!
Drew's first game is on September 3 against NAU (Northern Arizona). I am so excited!! Its gonna be a lot of fun. Maybe then I wont be so homesick because we'll be seeing our families a lot when they come down for the games! Drew is still looking to beat out the other tight end for the starting position....his toe still gives him some problems but he is training hard and working to heal his injury. Arizona football is so much bigger than anything we have ever experienced before so we are really looking forward to it. At the beginning of August he is going to be going away for team camp for a little over a week. They are going to an old Army base and will be sleeping in barracks and practicing a few times a day! I am so proud of drew and all his hard work. Without his scholarship,  I dont know what we'd do!
Although its been hard being away from our families and friends, being down in Tucson on our own has really strengthened our relationship. I feel so blessed to be married to such a wonderful man :) He really is my best friend!! 
THE ZOO :)
