What's your favorite saying?

I have a lot of favorite sayings but the one that sticks to my heart and mind these days is,
 God's delays 
     are not
 His denials.

Coffey Ground Updates

Hi everyone.
Wow it seems like blogs aren't as popular as they used to be. I think Facebook has taken over as the favorite. I'm one to blame.
Well I've decided I'm going to update my blog once a month.
We have some exciting news to share with you as far as the sole department goes.
Just to let you know
We are pleased to be joining East Valley Foot & Ankle Specialist to increase our services to you all.
Jamie will still be practicing at the same location.
2451 E. Baseline Rd. C-230
Gilbert, AZ
480-892-3180
We look forward to seeing you and continue to save your soles!

Ashley has applied for many non-profit organizations but in this job crunch we are all facing things are moving pretty slow for her. If you hear of anyone hiring she'd appreciate a jingle.

Andrea and Chris are doing great. They spend any spare time they have working on their home. They have a new addition to the family. A black cat named? Oops I forgot his name. I think it's Viego? Andrea started a new school year and Chris is busy designing away.

I'm keeping busy with our Home, my Mom and other stuff. Somehow it seems like the days just roll into one another anymore.
Mom fell back in May when we were at the beach. She broke her hip and has had two surgeries since then. She is recovering very slow but then again at her age it's expected. We appreciate all the prayers and support you have sent our way these past few months. We don't know what we would have ever done without the support of friends and family.

Hershey and Bear are tired of this heat. They miss there walks and outside play time. It's just too hot to leave then anywhere else but inside.

I hope this note find ou and your family doing well and staying cool. If you are our California peeps I don't fill sorry for you for being in the 60's and 70's! Get over it! Come visit us in HELL where it's 112!
Love you all and take care~
