Senior Night


This Friday's football game was Senior Night. As tradition goes each senior and there parents from the football team, cheer team, dance and band are escorted onto the field and thier names announced in honor of thier achievements the past four years. This was a fun night for us and an honor to escort Amanda onto the field, it seems like yesterday when we came to her first high school football game that she cheered at and now this was one of her last. Boy how times goes by!!

A Year in the Life of The Cunningham's

Well what can I say.... Our life has been crazy this past year, and to say I have had time to update my blog would be a lie. This time last year I entered a vigorous 16 month nursing program that at the end would get me my RN degree. This has been a dream of mine for a long time. As of right now I am 4 months away from graduating and to say the least it has been a journey all on it's own, one that would take to long to write about. Basically it has taught me alot about myself and what I can do if I put my mine to it. I have had incredible moments and also moments of weakness but overall I feel like I will be a great nurse in the end. As for the rest of the family.... Ed is a full-time firefighter for the city of El Mirage, and as of next week will be a firefighter/paramedic when he graduates from the paramedic program on November 7th. We are all so proud of him it has been a long year, with school, a booter year for firefighting and a shoulder surgery, needless to say he is an incredible example to the kids and a great husband supporting me with my nursing program. The kids I will start with the oldest, Amanda- wow she is 17 and a senior, she is so beautiful and is loving her year, she is still cheerleading and is now applying to colleges ( I fill like I shouldn't be old enough to have a child going to college ahhhhhh!!) She has been accepted to NAU(northern arizona university in Flagstaff) but is still in the process of applying to others before she makes her finally decision. We are really proud of her and are excited for her to start her life. Sam, he is sixteen and is on the varsity football team for the high school, he seems to be loving it, and he has come a long ways too with discovering the young man that he is and planning for his future, he wants to be a culinary chef, sounds good to me, I love food!!! Joey- he is thirteen (yes 3 teenagers at once, you would like I would need therapy!!!) he is great growing super tall almost as tall as me,and is the loved by the girls, that cunningham charm!!!Joey competed in swim this past summer and did really well. CJ- he is twelve and started middle school this year with Joe, he loves that and is doing really well. He is still into football and pretty much anything that has to do with sports.Cj also competed in swim this year and really loved it. Emma- she is ten and still continues to swim, she did really well this year and keeps getting faster. I think she has really found her love. She loves being the only one in elementary school and that she doesn't have her brothers looking over her!!! Her life evolves around her friends, school, swim and listening to the Jonas Brothers. Well as you can see we have been busy I am hoping that in four months my life will calm down enough to be able to update our blog on a more consistent basis. Needless to say the Cunningham Family has been incredibly blessed this year and to complain would be ungrateful. We love our life and look forward to what life has to offer us. I plan on putting up pictures so look for that. So till the next update.... take care
