Happy Halloween!




I hope everyone had a great Halloween.  We dressed up and then took Jewel and friends trick or treating with a little rain showers along the way.  We went out later and saw some great costumes and then some not so great like the creepy sloth guy from Goonies.  There were a lot of girls that didn't leave much to the imagination with the costumes they had on...yikes!  Enjoy the pics.

Its been a while.




Ok so i have been VERY bad about keeping up with this page.  So lets catch you up to speed.  Stella (our dog) was diagnosed with epilepsy, Jewel started 5th grade, I turned 31 (yikes) and Brandon aka Boomer turned 30!!!  Finally he is in the club!  Stella has been on phenobarb so that controls the seizures....makes her groggy but she is doing great.  Jewel loves 5th grade so far she says it is her favorite grade.  Brandon is so far enjoying the age of 30.  I will do better at keeping this blog up to date.  Enjoy the pictures.  Oh i forgot to add that the Dodgers made it to the playoffs i know they didn't make it but Brandon paid Jewel and i to show our love for him and support for his team.

Wisdom Teeth


I hate getting rid of stuff that is rightfully mine. This goes along with my wisdom teeth, but I can only take so much from my dentist, so I had them taken out. After the surgery though, I had a really nice nap. Someone just had to take my picture...

Fish


Hey Friedrichs! Thanks for the fish!! Melinda is mad because there is no more room in the freezer, but whenever I want to remember that lovely summer in Alaska, I stick my head in the freezer and the aroma brings memories right back.

40 years together.






On July 19 we celebrated my grandparents 40th wedding anniversary.  It was a surprise party that my mom and i planned.  We had help from my grandparents friends and co workers to make it a success.  My grandpa was put in the hospital Wednesday before the party and my mom and i were like ok we are still going to have this party.  He was released Saturday and he was ready for a nap.  My grandpa's brother and sister in law were "taking them out" for their anniversary and when they arrived at the party they were surprised.  It was a great party.  The weather was very hot at 98 but we were in a room that had water coolers...for those of you who know how well they work you can understand why we are all looking hot in these pics.  Hears to another 40 years of love laughter and family!  Love you Jim and Dorothy (grandma and grandpa).

anniversary weekend





OK so we are back from our weekend away.  We stayed at a place called Timbercove Inn near Jenner,Ca.  It is near Bodega Bay, Petaluma area.  Now the Inn is rustic very old and beautiful ocean views. It was also very relaxing and peaceful.  as we sat on our deck watching the sun set raccoons walk by you and stop to see what you are doing.  It was a nice weekend away for us.  On the way home today we stopped at some wineries and had a great time at the hook and ladder winery.  The people there were great and the wine is fantastic as well.  We really enjoyed the quiet time and the view of the ocean.  So please enjoy the pictures. If you look close you can see a person at the top of the picture of the cliff you will see that the person is Brandon!
