Mom's birthday picnic - Months later

It's been awhile since the picnic we had in Phoenix for my mom's birthday, and every time I came on here to post some pictures, I ended up just quitting cause it took forever. Not even to mention the videos! sheesh. I will get to the video sometime, maybe, but for now, here are the lovely pictures. I think they turned out pretty good!
Facebook vs Blogger? Facebook won in the easier, quicker, and less stress categories. So here is the link. Enjoy!

Suns Game

Hello everyone! KaLee here. So I would consider myself pretty competent when it comes to computers. Not as good as Jordan, but I trained under the master and can hold my own pretty well. So you can imagine the frustration when I try to post on here and the pictures and text get all messed up. The pictures don't get posted in order, spaces randomly show up here and there, the text doesn't fit, pictures disappear...you get my point. Anyway, that was just a really long way of saying, "okay computer, I fold. I will type in everything at the top for this post cause my patience has run thin."
On Saturday night we went to the Suns game! It ended up being the Los Suns though...fiesta night of some sort. Great fun was had by all and they actually won. I know, crazy. We were way up in the nosebleeds but most of us were eventually able to sit next to each other. And the price was right, so we can't complain. We missed Dad though, he wasn't feeling well. We took plenty of pictures to make him feel like he was there for all the action. And now you can too! Enjoy the pics!

Happy Birthday Jordan!

What better way to say Happy Birthday than a blown tire in the middle of a busy Arizona freeway...
Yep folks, thats the HOV lane! Taken from KaLee's car while we were waiting for the tow truck

Once it got dark, he finally decided to show up...after some confusing directions from us
Beautiful huh? Completely blew apart in 2.5 seconds. Ripped the nice tread right off.

We brought it to Wal-Mart for them to fix the next morning. So what was a trip to my (KaLee's) house to go to a free outdoor movie ended up to be about a 2 1/2 hour excursion on the freeway! Happy Birthday Jordan!
We made it up to him by getting him some balloons at Texas Roadhouse



He got to ride on the Birthday saddle too!
Happy Birthday Jordan! Sorry it didn't go as planned, but you have some fun stories now. And once people feel bad for you, you'll get to celebrate all month long. We love you!

We're still here!

It's true...the Fackrell family is still alive and kicking, just not good at blogging. Well, Mom and Dad don't want to, so the responsibility goes to the favorite child. I can say that because I am posting this blog. So, lets catch everyone up on what has been going on...



Jordan and I graduated. I don't have pictures from Jordan's, and he hasn't gotten his diploma yet...so...


Dan bought a house in Queen Creek, sold his car, and got a promotion at work

Halloween was a real treat (punny...)


Christmas was grand!


The Cheesecake Factory rocks!

We're working on expanding the sliding shelves business. Don't those look fancy? That was an install Jordan and I did.

Jordan, Dan, KaLee, and Katie successfully climbed an Arizona mountain


Riley and Josh have a new addiction, and learned more about goldfish


Maisy had a bath - okay, hopefully several since the last post


We still find time to do fun things together


And this picture was just too darn cute


Now I am officially tired of posting pictures. Until next time!
