I am so exhausted I don’t think there are words to say how tired I am. This weekend has to be one of the craziest more busiest weekends ever for me. Well at least lately.

First I would like to say THANK YOU or shall I say DANKE to Sally over in Hamburg, Germany. For the post card and the journal that I received on Thursday. It was a really great surprise to find something in my mail box other then Junk or Bills. Later that night Angela and her kids came over to have dinner with us.

Friday I didn’t do too much, went to get my car smogged (yeah it passed! ) and paid a parking ticket (YUCK!) Then we all went over to my mom’s house for dinner. It’s so nice to have all the family together. Well everyone except for Mohcine who is always working.

Saturday morning, we woke up had breakfast, go ready filled up the car with gas (was sick of just putting a few dollars here and there) and went to do some shopping. But had to hurry to get back home to go watch Joshua (my nephew) play a scrimmage game of Soccer it was so cute watching all these 5 year olds running around on the field..

Joshua is in the middle on the left side with the darker blue jersey on…

After the game we went walking around to see what was going on…So we let Brandon and Joshua do a little rock climbing…

While Brandon and I were shopping earlier he asked when we were going to go to the movies, I told him we could go that night. A little later, I saw a couple of movies that were on DVD that we wanted to see. That is when I came up with another option. I gave him the option of going to the movies and watching one movie or…. we can go rent 3-4 movies and have a movie night with friends AKA “A get fat night”…. Jeni don’t you just miss those? So I called up Angela asking if she was busy and invited her over for a movie night. Of course she says yes, so just when Brandon and I think were about done shopping. We go hit up the snack isle…. Chips, Salsa, Cheese dip, popcorn, Magic Shell (for our ice cream, which Angela brought), sprite’s for the kids, and a couple of bottles of wine for Angela and I. To be added to all this was some olives, pepperchinis, pickles, and pickled asparagus. Who needs dinner with all this yummy junk food. Our movies for the night and in the order we watched them in were…

RV
Poseidon
Final Destination 3

I was barely able to stay up for the last movie….but because we had guest I forced my self. To fastly fall asleep as soon as they left.

Today….hmm well today we all went to Sea World AGAIN! And if I didn’t get enough sun yesterday I surely did today…I could show you some pics of our day but I’m so tired Im limiting it to this one video of Brandon on the bungie trampoline… besides it’s not like you haven’t seen a billion pics of sea world on my blog lol. But I will add them to my Gallery when time permits…

After Sea World we all met up at mom’s house for dinner, cake and ice cream to celebrate Nikki ( my little sister) 6th Birthday that was actually earlier this month..

First day of School

Aug-21-2006

I know, I know… It’s been a few days. And your probably all going crazy not seeing an updated picture of my adorable cute son. Saturday ohh how I missed him. Brandon and I went to breakfast with Kerri and her kids early in the morning. After that she was going to go up to her dad’s house to let the boys, ride on the dirt bikes. And lucky Brandon was invited for the fun. He was gone for alot longer then I thought he was going to be. I missed him so much, I couldn’t wait for him to come home. He had fun, with the exception of he got scared (it’s a gas powered bike) and turn the handle the wrong way. Instead of slowing the bike down he spead it up. And he did what I did as a child and crashed into a wall. He called me as soon as he did it. Thankfully he only got a couple of scratches on his legs. Gotta love those boys….

Sunday we didn’t do much. Grandma moved down from Northern California that day so we all went over to her house to help unload the truck followed by a giant pizza. We couldn’t stay long because the kids all had to get to bed early for their first day of school which was today.

Brandon loved school, but said he was glad to be home, cause he missed me sooo much!!!!

This morning Brandon ready to walk out the door….(if you see little white dots on the picture it’s because your using Internet Explorer and it doesn’t like my transparency)

Brandon with his Cousin Joshua on Saturday

Brandon hangin around on his Uncle Tyson’s work truck

Uncle Tyson works at a water/sewage treatment plant (hey someone has to do it) the boys go check out the “dirty” water

Getting grossed out i’m sure…ohh yea they are boys…they find this stuff fun lol

On Sunday while Brandon and I were at home…. Kerri took her kids up to a friends house and they got to ride this dunebuggy around

Last night while coming home from my Brother’s house I found this huge grasshopper about 5 inches long.

Time For A Haircut

Aug-17-2006

Well school is right around the corner. So it’s about that time that Brandon got his hair cut. Brought him to a friend of the family. I’ve known Randee since I was about 5 years old. Just love her.

Brandon’s hair looks so good right now…

Not Much..

Aug-16-2006

Haven’t done anything real exciting these past 2 days. Except for stay at home. On Monday at 8 a.m. we did go down to get Brandon registered at school. And later on that night talked with my ex husband about Brandon and it seems we agree on a great many things. Which of course is good.

Tomorrow Brandon is going to get his hair cut by Randee ( friend of the family and our family hair dresser). Can’t wait for her to see him. He was just a baby when she saw him.

Here are a few pics…

Every morning it seems we have a big burrito laying out on our living room floor watching cartoons (Specially Spongbob Sqaurepant’s)

What happened to my living room …. I now have forts set up by Brandon and my nephew Richard…

And tonight Mohcine was explaining how to play soduku to Brandon. It was just so cute

A friend of Mohcine’s had to go to Vegas on business matters and asked if we could watch their dog for them for a few days. Of course Mohcine says. She was brought over last night and thankfully Lucy seems to get along with this other dog who happens to be named Lacy. This morning I told Brandon that she was outside and for him to go check her out. He comes back and says Mom she looks just like a Canine (k-9). I think Brandon thought a Canine was a breed of dog that the cops use. Then I explained it all to him. It was still cute though…

And of course we have more green army men. Except Brandon wanted to put them in a cup of water and freeze them. He called it his little “experimentation”

Today we drove up to see his Grandma Rose and Aunt Cassandra to get all of his clothes and some paperwork. Grandma wanted to take a photo of us. Don’t say anything about my belly we all know it’s there lol
