Josh's Court of Honor


HI



Jessica and me made puppets today out of old socks. We colored on them with pens and used yarn and scotch tape for the hair. Mine was a boy puppet named Josh and Jessicas was a girl named Sally the sock puppet.

See ya

Guess what !! It snowed in Hurricane all day and all night on Monday,there still is a little on the orchard and in corners, Buddy did not even like to go potty on the snow. The sun is shinning today so by afternoon the snow should be gone. Who is going to win the super bowl we need to get a wager going,I'll take the Patriots and give 10 points for a dollar. Grandma Lois is going to come on Friday and spend a few days with us,Grandpa is going to take her to vegas next week she sold her home and they are closed in escrow so she has to sign papers.I am glad that will be off her mind.Ok put in your wagers for the game (be creative)love

Hi

Hey everyone there isn't much going on here. I started school last week and all of my classes seem like they will be pretty good. I have been working alot this week and trying to get back into the groove. I won a Top 10 program at SRAP which is a RA leadership conference, my understanding is that is pretty good. I had a good weekend other than that I spent some time in LA with my friends and we all had a really good time. Now its back to studying. Hope all is well!

Hi Family!

So about 4 days ago a new neighbor moved into our complex. He's a cute little blondie, and he is totally in love with me. Don't worry Dad and Grandpa, I don't think we'll be getting married ever. He's still a little baby, still poops and pees all over the place! He never sleeps more than two hours at a time and eats everything off the floor. He bites a lot too but it's okay because we are still teaching him.

Don't worry, he isn't mine! My neighbor Rob bought him. His name is Lloyd and he is a yellow lab. Right now he is about 10 pounds but he will grow up to be almost 100 lbs! He is pretty much the cutest thing ever except when he poops on our carpet. We babysit sometimes when his dad is at work or when he needs a break.

He is really a good little pup! He cries sometimes and chews on everything but he's really smart and learns quick. He is already almost potty trained.

  

Other than playing with the puppy, I have been swamped with school and work. I work almost 20 hours a week and go to school 3 - 4 hours a day. So I don't have much time to relax but it's okay! Gotta make the big bucks! (haha, yeah right). Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well! I love you all and miss you!

It was good to go "home"


We had the opportunity to visit the old homestead. All looks well in the big city. I hung around Coronado while Doug was in meetings. Corbin and I even went to lunch at the Pearl but we really needed grandpa, to help us with the dim sum ladies. (we played it safe and had the lunch combo.) Lots has changed in old SD none of our old hang outs remain, but there are lots of new choices. Kelsey and Kyle had fun at their grandma Charlotte's house, they made pies and baked bread of course. Courtney managed to fit us into her very busy schedule, it could have been because we had her new leather jacket. We are back home in the snow a big change from the gorgeous silver strand. There is way too much snow here still. Kelsey, Kyle and I drove home Sunday a we really appreciate the Charger updates! it sounded like a great game I wish I had been brave enough to put $100.00 on it. We will be back to the regular grind for the week, we expect Doug home on Tuesday night.
hi it's Brooke i just wanted to know how every one was


by!!!!!!!!!
How about those Chargers!!! What a great game! Looking forward to next week! Have fun at Wicked Aunt Annette it is amazing! My date was good, meeting the parents tomorrow, no need to worry Grandpa!

I'm feeling Wicked

Jeff and I are going to CHicago in March and we were lucky enough to be going with a group of others that want to stay another day and see the Musical Wicked. I was pretty excited but now that I have the soundtrack I am beside myself. I called Barbara right away to see if it would be worth it, she said it definately would be worth it. She said, get the tickets, get a good seat and DONT SING. Well that was pretty funny. It's OK I have the music playing in my car at all times and its on the laptop at home and my computer at work. I can sing as loud as I want to in the car at least.

Hey everybody today is Danielle's eleventh birthday. Give her a call and sing Happy Birthday to her, I did my best she seamed to like it, at least she did not laugh at my singing. She got a new fancy skate board, that is like a snow board.. Maybe some one could show her how to post a picture of the "stick" on our blog?

She cannot ride the board because her mom and Max both are sick and she has to take care of them hope they get better soon.

Has any body heard from Courtney today she had another date with the new fellow, they went bowling in Riverside, he drove all the way from Bridgeport to riverside to go bowling, everybody know there is no bowling alleys in Bridgeport.

Jan 9th 2008

Well it Wednesday on the farm, another day at work, weather is some what bad, hope to be able to trim trees this week end. Looks like Doug has a lot of snow to shovel, hope Kyle helps.

You mother/grandma is doing about the same, she is having a problem posting to this blog, hope one of you get on the phone with her when she is on the computer to help her.

My visit to the doctor last firday for the internal inspection of the external port went well, I was a bit apprehensive, the nurse put IV in my arm, I talked to the doctor for a minute, and he told the nurse to give me 1.35%. I laying on the gurny without any clothes on, big crack in the back and thinking to my self, I wounder just how long is it going to take to get to sleep. We I did not get through that thought, I was out. Next thing I remember was opening one eye starring in to a TV monitor look at a one eyed snake going about it marry way inspecting, then it was over. No pain the only pain was the night before and that morning after taking 6 tablespoons of fleet emimna. Big grippers and lots of time on the throne. Well the good news from the doctor was only one poulop and it look ok, they sent it in for testing. I was unable to get a video or I would have posted it for all to see.

First Day of Class

Well I just finished my first day of class and am now looking for employment, I loved my dog job, but I am looking for a job that has something to do with teaching, to put on my resume and gain experience. So all went well with school, my professor is nice, the course has a lot of writing but it prolly wont be that hard I love writing. I am happy to be back in warm, and sunny Southern California. Hope all is well with everyone!

Happy New Year

We it's 2008 hope each and everyone of you have a great new year.

All is well on the farm, tree pruning is proceeding. Grandma and I have a very uneventful new years eve, in bed at 9:00 PM.

Barbara and her family visited for a few days after Christmas, we had a good time with them, they helped you mom take down inside Christmas stuff. We went to see a couple of movies, the new one about the lost treasure and the one about the golden compass. Both were good.

Have a doctors appointment on Friday, they will open the back door and have a detailed look, I will see if I can get a copy of the video and post.

Don't forget to post so that we can know what's going on in your world!!!
