We're home!

[Cincy'sMom]

Ralph and I got home from our trip to Arizona tonight! What a great trip! The weahter was awesome the entire time and we sure weren't looking forward to coming home to the cold! I've got a TON of pictures...everything from NASCAR, to desert landscape to family to Phil, the cat! It will probably take a few days to get them all posted!

In the meantime, as a sneek peak, I'm attaching a picture from our dinner Tuesday night. We met up with PT's Uabasson in Tucson. We had a great time meeting Laura. Thanks for coming to dinner!

[Cinder & Smoke]

Sorry I posted so many! Hard to limit them with over 400 to choose from!!!

[anna_66]

Oh Amy, it sure looks like you and Ralph had a wonderful vacation:D I'm just glad you took so many pictures to share with us!
I'm off to look at your album...

[poofy]

HEy great pictures, glad you enjoyed your trip, I enjoyed seeing my state from another view..lol..the supersition mts look awsome as always, I live just down from them.. :D

[4 Dog Mother]

Great pictures Amy, but in that one of you and Samantha are you teaching her your trick of having your eyes closed in most pictures?

[Cincy'sMom]

Actually, yes! Lisa was laughing cause she couldn't get me to keep my eyes open, so Samantha started closing hers on purpose! I guess she figured if I couldn't keep mine open, at least we would be doind the same thing!

[ramanth]

Glad you are home safe!! Great photos! I'm off to enjoy the album.

I didn't realize you'd be at the race. I'd of looked for you on TV. ;) :D

Were you seated at Turn 4?

[Cincy'sMom]

For the Nextel cup race we were just beyond Turn 4. For qualifying and the Busch race, we were just beyond the start/finish line, maybe 10 seats or so.

[ramanth]

Very cool! I was so nice to see Bobby and Tony finish so closely together. I really enjoyed that race. Sad to see Bobby leaving Gibbs racing. *sniffle*

[lizbud]

Loved all your pictures. :D Looks like you both got to do & see a lot
while on vacation. :) I really liked this one picture......

[cyber-sibes]

Nice pictures! Amy, you look REALLY good in your uncle's blue vet - don't you think you should ask for one on your Christmas list? ;)

[shais_mom]

Great pics Amy! :)

[RobiLee]

Loved the pictures, Amy. Looks like you guys had a great time and its fun to see some of your family. I loved seeing the Arizona scenery. I have family there also but haven't been there since I was 16 or 17 years old. I swear a couple of those houses looked like my aunt's house (she lives in mesa)...lol. They all seem to look alike.

[Toby's my baby]

Those are great pictures!! Looks like you had lots of fun!
