So long summer!

This summer the "heat" never really hit and was altogether pretty mild. However I've been very grateful that, except for a week here or there, we have had an indian summer, until now. Goodbye flip flops and light jackets, hello boots and down coats. Even last week we hit 70! So it's with a sad heart that I post these pics as a farewell to summer (it is the middle of November so I guess it's been a good run). Sadly this summer we also had to say farewell to Kiddieland. Kiddleland was a great amusement park for kids. I used to go there when I was a little girl. Chris had his first job working there when he was 15. I am very sad that Robbie and Braedon will never visit there. Fortunately for Nik and Soph, my sister Tricia took them, along with my niece Kara. They spent all day there and Chris and I were able to watch them ride "The Scrambler".

Here they are in line, Sophia and Kara are in matching pink and brown outfits.

Sophia was tall enough to go by herself, while Aunt Tricia took the others

Here's pictures from our block party. Robbie was a little small for the moonjump but liked others bouncing it.

It's amazing how much the word "picnic" dresses up a sandwich.

I'm back!

Hello Blog,

I know it's been a long time (almost 2 months) and I don't blame people for not even checking it anymore, I don't even check it. But since my little guys are napping at the same time, a rare occasion, I thought I would attempt to bring this blog back to life. Fair warning, there will be no pictures attached.

I'm back to work at Alaska Airlines, and I've switched to nights so Chris and I have the tag team parenting thing down pat. Chris started a new job at Opticote (pronounced opti-coat) which coat glasses and he's enjoying making up new colors and coating ANY eyewear he can get his hands on. Wait til I post the goggles he did. One of the great things about his work is that it is 3 stop lights away from my parking lot, seriously right on my way to work. So in the morning he leaves me the van (I'm totally a soccermom, minivan and all and I LOVE it!) and I switch cars on the way to work so he can have the van at night.

We recently acquired a "new" laptop compliments of my soon to be sister-in-law Nicole, thanks Nicole! (There's a second hand store by us that's called "New to You" and I think it's the greatest name.) I could care less if this laptop's been used, actually I'm glad it's used cuz it came with games like Bejeweled, Bookworm, and Mall Tycoon. The only problem is that our wireless router needs a power cord (irony I know) and until then Chris hooked up our laptop internet in our room. Enter clueless techie me. This explains why I can't post any pics on my blogs. All my saved pics are on our PC and I can't figure out how to load my camera on this laptop.

But there's great pics in store. We went to DisneyWorld is Sept and I can't wait to share all the magic and fun! So in true Disney fashion TTFN Ta Ta for now!

See ya real soon!
