Wes with MY TWO FAVORITE ANGELS!!
Wes helped unload 468 bails of hay!
Wes welding with Jerry!
Wes got the experince of "BRANDING"!
Wes arm wrestling with Jerry!
Awesome pic of Wes in a New Mexico Sunset!
Notice the crooked yucca stick next to the fireplace. Linda gave this to me. She gets them on the ranch, they look like a snake! It's cool!
Wes made these awesome little cups for each of us out of yucca. Linda McDonald makes these for her grandchildren.
After I picked Wes up from the McDonald's
we drove to Silver City to look around at old
memories and to get gas. I took this picture
of Grandpa's old house. The people saw us
taking pictures of a Buck in the ditch behind
Grandpa's house and started talking to us. I
told them that I used to live there and so they
invited us in. It was cool - but it doesn't look at
all as nice as when Mom and Dad lived there!
This is a small buck we saw in the ditch
right next to Grandpa's old house in
Silver City.

This is Jerry and Linda McDonald. I LOVE THEM SOOOO MUCH!!
They are truely my EARTHLY ANGELS!!! Wes spent 2 weeks with them
and know can see why I love them so much! I feel sick that we had to
go get him so early. We really needed him back home to help with the
irrigation and office cleaning. Wes has never been a good city boy, he
would have loved to been born in the country. He really enjoyed his stay with the McDonalds and learned what "REAL COWBOYS" are like and he LOVED IT!!!



Wesley went to the McDonald's Ranch for two weeks and so Bryan and I did irrigation for him. Bryan did the nights and I did the days - I am not used to being in the heat for that long, but it was fun working with LaMar. While waiting for water I was able to get a lot of reading done. I read all of Alma, my Sunday School lessons for the next few weeks, the whole Ensign for Aug, and a wonderful book on Fasting!

This is just the tail end of a huge herd of elk - I was so excited - I couldn't find my camera.!
We caught 15 fish in just a few hours!!


This is my kitchen! LaMar and I were the cooks for the Deacons Super Activity at Big Lake.
We were at camp from Monday thru Friday. It was a lot of work but so much fun!!


We saw a few deer, LOTS of Elk, turkey, beavers, antelop, and fresh bear poop!

Look at my BIG trout!!

Davis Family


LaMar and I have a wonderful family!!! We keep busy with the kids and our grandchildren. We usually have a Sunday dinner with everyone each Sunday. Then on Fast Sundays we take turns having a, "Break the Fast Dinner" with our children and extended family relatives.
LaMar - works for ATC Associates as a Remediation Tech and travels a lot during the week, but is home on weekends. He travels mostly in the State of Arizona. LaMar also irrigates 80 homes in Chandler everyother weekend in the summer and only one weekend in the winter. He has a break in November and December and has no irrigation. LaMar is the Secretary in the Young Men's at Church. He loves to play Rummy-O, a fun game.
Donna - I work at Taylor Junior High School as a Computer Lab Tech in Reading. I also clean a large office 3 nights a week. I love my job because I have a break in the summer and can travel with LaMar, it is so much fun, I Love it! I have really gotten into the New Family Search (Geneology) Program through the Church. I have gotten at least 50 family names with work to do and have already done a few! It is so addictive, I Love it! I teach 12, 16 and 17 year olds in Sunday School and I am the Ward Humanitarian Specialist.

LaMar won this new Dodge Dakota Pickup through his work!! Well - it's not all free!! His employer added the cost of the vehicle as income for the year and so it comes out of Federal and State Taxes that we made that much more this year. Then after everything we figured it will cost us $8,000.00. Not to mention our insurance went up about $200.00 a month! Free - Well, but we ARE VERY greatful though, it is a nice truck!!




Bryan, Dustin, and LaMar

This was a fun horse ride with Dustin and Andra and her parents. We rode up around Wevers Needle in February.These pics were taken on a fun family outing to Butcher Jones Beach in March. We were ALL there and Jamie and Kieth, Kids, Steve, Kierston, Brice Bloomfield, and Debbie and George Papa were all there! Grandma giving her gran-babies a bath!!!


Our Family -

Bryan and Celinda are in the process of moving back to Arizona! Bryan is the Branch Manager of Tom Duffy Flooring. We missed them and are so happy to have the grandbabies close! Celinda is now expecting a 3rd little granddaughter for us!! Due possibly in November! Below is a picture of their new house in Mesa.



Dustin and Andra took an adventure and moved to Seattle, Washington! We will miss them so much - but it will be fun for them!
