Colorado Countdown

The countdown to our Colorado trip has begun. Just 6 short days until we fly to Arizona & begin our drive to Colorado with the cousins. Melia & I are so excited! Last time we were there, she was in my tummy. It's going to be a blast...literally. We'll be there for the 4th of July which, as I remember, we missed back then because of the fires going on during that time. I'm just going to enjoy being with family & away from home.

The weather here has been ridiculously hot! High 90s to low 100s. Phew! But seems to be cooling down a bit. Today is my Friday so I'll be having a great weekend! You do the same.

Long Time No Write!

Well, greetings to you all! It has been quite a while since my last entry; I apologize. May was filled with quite a bit of "stuff" including my godson's high school graduation. Kyland graduated from Hamilton High School in Chandler, AZ on May 28. It was very hot, but the ceremony & our visit was very nice. And definitely worth it. Melia had a great time with all of her cousins & of course, her auntys and uncles.

Now that June is here, summer has definitely begun. Melia's last day of school was the 10th & we went with some friends to Disneyland after she got out. Yes, we enjoyed ourselves. She started her Summer Day Camp yesterday & is loving it. Today she's already taking a field trip to a bounce house place. How fun! They've got plans to go bowling, swimming, to Aquarium of the Pacific, to Knott's Berry Farm, etc during this camp. Lucky girl. July 2, we will be starting our 4th of July vacation to Colorado to spend more time with the cousins. I am sooooo looking forward to it. Last time Melia was there, she was in my tummy.

We hope you're all doing well & hope to see you soon!

Happy Birthday, Heather!

Good morning to you. Hope all is well with you & your families. I would like to wish my sister-in-law HAPPY BIRTHDAY! today. She is in Indiana with my brother & their 3 children. We hope she has a GREAT day!

This weekend is Mother's Day & I'm determined to make it a special one. My mom is coming up from San Diego & my grandma will be here, too. We're going to have our 4-generation portrait taken & then have a nice dinner following it. I'm definitely looking forward to it. Being a mother is the MOST rewarding experience in the world! I'm so proud of my little baby girl.

It's FRIDAY!!!

Phew! It's been quite a while since my last entry. Lots of stuff going on. Made it through another week. Wednesday, Melia's class went on their 1st fieldtrip. We walked to Border's Bookstore. For those of you who do not know where it's at in comparison to her school, it's just down the street. A big, busy, main street, but still only down the street. They had the time of their lives! Her open house is tonite. We're very excited for that.

Our friend, Kelly, is graduating from his academy. He's been up in northern CA for the past 4 months. Can't believe how fast it's gone by. Congratulations, Kelly!

We hope that you all have a wonderful weekend, however you may be spending it.

Last night was a productive unpacking night as Melia was with David. It's amazing how much "stuff" is accumulated in such a little time. A lot of it went to the trash bin. Hopefully, I will get the remainder of it finished tonite. My cousin, Jeri, is coming into town Fri night & she let me know that it better be done by the time she gets here. Ha! Maybe I'll just have to leave enough for her to help me.
Melia's Jog-A-Thon went great! I had the day off so I was able to work it & David showed up for her run. It was a fun day & Melia did great! She ran the whole 20 min. Thanks again for those of you who sponsored her with your pledges. As far as Kindergarten goes, we still are not 100% sure where she will go.
