President’s Day

Today we honor our leaders for the work, dedication and accomplishments they have done during their time representing this great country. We would like to share some unforgettable words spoken by these individuals:

“The harder the conflict, the greater the triumph” – George Washington

“Believe you can and you’re already halfway there” – Theodore Roosevelt

Christmas Gift Guide

With just a few days left before Jolly Old Saint Nick comes down our chimneys to place gifts for you and yours under the tree, we want to make sure your holiday gift buying is all taken care of and completed.

So what do you do when you run out of gift ideas? Here are some tips to help you make this holiday season unforgettable.

If you can’t think of what to get that special someone, especially if you’re already out shopping, scroll through their social media for items or brands that they post with or about.

When it comes to our parents, gift buying is a little more difficult even though they usually don’t ask for anything. But think of hobbies, restaurants, or their daily routine and what items they use daily. No matter how big or small they will remember you gifted it to them when they go to use it.

And of course, the kids. Contrary to popular belief they are the hardest to shop for as so many options exist and choosing the right one is a 50/50 chance. Kids will typically use toys for a short period of time and then move on. However, we have a trick that could save the day!  Buy small gifts, wrap individually and turn into one BIG bundled surprise. Their love for the holiday isn’t really based on what they get but how many and how big their gift is.

Try these tips out and let us know what tricks you have up your sleeve, Happy Holidays.

Holiday Safety Reminder

In the midst of taking in all of the holiday cheer, while sipping on some hot chocolate and wrapping up your gifts; we want to make sure you keep a smile this season with a few safety reminders.

  • Keep all gifts and personal belongings inside and out of sight whether that be in your house or your car
  • Lock all doors and windows when leaving, even if you are just driving down the street for a quick errand, it only takes seconds for someone to break in and leave
  • When taking out the trash, break down boxes of all your new gifts, rather than leaving the full box out for by passers to see what you now have inside your home

Western Mutual would like to wish you a happy, healthy and safe holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving

The holiday season is in full swing and Thanksgiving may just be the climax of it all. The one holiday in which gifts nor candy bring out the smiles but family and friends do. This year, focus less time judging the turkey and stuffing and more time reflecting all that we have, which we take for granted each and every day. Soak in the moment and snap some photos to create ever lasting memories, be appreciative of all those who don’t get the holiday off and remember the small things like being able to see or hear all the affection around you. From all of us here at Western Mutual and Arizona Home Insurance, we wish you and your loved ones a Happy Thanksgiving!

Summer Comes to a Close

WM_Goodbye-Summer_8.26.19.jpg

“…and all at once, summer collapsed into fall.”

– Oscar Wilde

As the summer months come to a close, we reflect back to the long warm evenings, fun times outdoors, and the vacations / staycations had! While technically the fall season does not start until the end of September, Labor Day weekend serves as the “unofficial end of summer” to many. Take time to soak up the remainder of the month and enjoy your long holiday weekend with family and friends!

Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall!
