Summer 07 almost over

Well we are just a few short days til the end of summer as the kids no it cause school starts next week. But looking back even though we didn't go anywhere this year we had a pretty exciting time. The kids were enrolled in a summer day camp program run by the City rec center and they had a blast. Every week they went to the Farmers market and Library an Wednesday and Friday they went to the local pool where Taryn was free do go anywhere and though Zack isn't tall enough yet to go into the deep end by himself he did pass his swimming test and was allowed to go off the diving boards. But even though that sounds good to me it was Thursdays that had me wanting to skip work and be a kid again. I will run down from the top the list of places they went. El Captain in Hollywood to see Ratatouille and eat at the Kodak Theater food court. Knotts Berry Farms Water Park, Angels Baseball game, Salt Water Swimming pool down at the Redondo Pier, Knotts Berry Farm Amusement Park, and tomorrow the are going to Universal Studios Theme Park. There are a couple other place I can't think of right now but needles to say WOW.
And not to be forgotten the kids Dad can to visit them last week. They are always glad to visit with their dad but were very sorry not to get to see the rest of the family and friends in Ohio this year but we are looking into a Christmas visit.

As for me I have also had an interesting summer working, working and more working. Oh and then their was my Deviated Septum surgery and week off recuperating. All went well with that and I can now breath through my nose for the first time in my life. Though I have to teach myself to do it now. My week off I spent reading and laying in the sun, it would have made a pretty good vacation if My nose wasn't dripping and I hadn't had a headache most of the time but hey I was not complaining, much. Other than that I went out clubbing with my friends in Hollywood and though I still haven't seen anyone famous I have been some very interesting places.

I best get back to work now I will holla at you all soon and I promise I will attach some pictures too.

Busy Busy Weekend

Hello all well it is Monday yet again and wow what a busy weekend we had here. Thursday Taryn's Iguana Iggy died so sometime this week we will be out looking for a new friend for her. Saturday Morning Mark came out to visit the kids. We have found that flying Skybus into Burbank may be a little more of a drive but the air fare is much cheaper so it works for us. Saturday night I had a Birthday party for a friend to go to, we rented a Party bus and she got a table at one of the clubs in Hollywood, it was a lot of fun a couple people got really drunk but all in all it was a blast. Sunday Mom and I went to visit my Uncle Sheridan with Aunt Marilyn. It was ok but man I was tired I hadn't gotten in until like 4 the night before and I was on the road again by 10am. Now it is Monday and I am at work wishing for a pillow and dreading going to a dentist appointment this afternoon. Oh well it is almost over and at least this week I am not sick like last week.

First of many

Honestly I don't know where to begin. As any one reading this knows we have been in California for 2 yaers now and lots of things are changing at this time.
School will be starting again for both of the kids and this year marks a major change for both kids.
Zack will be starting 1st grade and out here that meens his first year of full day school. He will also be going to an afterschool program run by the community rec center, so he will have lots to share in a few weeks.
Taryn is in 6th grade can you believe it she will be starting middle school and again for the fourth time in as many years she will be going to a new school. Luckily she has meet some older kids who go to the school through the summer camp they were in and from the neighborhood. Taryn as usual is very excited to start school so we will just wait to hear how it goes.
