Influenced by Ryan Scheckler

So Jagger is totally into skateboarding he loves to watch Ryan Scheckler on MTV. I took him to the skate park today and he just wanted to be in the action. He can stand on the board he is still trying to figure it out. Joey was telling me tonite that Jagger was dropping in of the couch with a board (no wheels)with Olivia in tow. Ah I can feel the wait in the ER already..........

I missed that taste

So Joey just got back from his business trip in New Mexico and he brought my remaining stash of green chili. I made my friend Laura's famous and oh so yummy green chili chicken enchilada's tonite how I missed that taste.

The wiggles made my day

Oh and Jagger and Olivia's too, even Joeys. It was worth the money and I will see it again next year!





crushing on the blue Wiggle Anthony, Dads can't have all the fun a mom has to have her crushes too.

A taste

of what it might be like with the kids when we go on vacation, well sort of. Jagger and Olivia might have scared there cousin today. They are crazy!!!!

Just preparing

for the next storm.

Back to work II

Well Crate and Barrel has been fun but it's time I need to go back to work full time. So I am going back to my passion, no not nails (I wish) the next best thing working in a Spa. So next week I start my new job at AvantGard Spa I am really excited although I will miss the kids it's what has to be done. My mother in law will help when she can and same with Brandi. I have a great friend Christa who has offered to help with getting Olivia to and from school or hula. Jag will be in a daycare that I feel comfortable right down the street. This whole world will start next week right after the two little ones are done with their strep throat.

Still my babies

Well Everybody has been sick, so Jagger is in my bed and Olivia and Jagger share our room right now so she is in the room and at 2:30 this morning Brandi comes in "mom it sounds like people are walking around upstairs(Nina and Jose are gone), can I sleep with you?" I told her there was no room so she laid down on the floor with a Spongebob blanket and pillow.
All 3 of my babies, I guess it doesn't matter how old they get they still need mom.

She was mad

So this is what the local beach looked like today.
Joey went there with the kids to take a look at mother nature.
The swells were 25 to 30 feet, (it killed me to go to work today and miss all the fun).
It reminded me of what pipeline looked like when we lived in hawaii sets rolling out from far away.
The waves were crashing on the shore and moving boulders on to the pavement.
I wonder what tomorrow will bring.

locks of love

Well Olivia has been growing her hair since she was born although she has had it cut a few times this time she has been growing it out since August and this time she wanted to donate her hair (after seeing an Oprah episode). So the other day we went to get all 10 1/2 inches cut. This week we will send it off to help a child.

Olivia's hair has been lived in the Hawaiian sun, the dry dessert air of New Mexico, and the warm California sun.

Christmas in California

Only in California can we shop the day before Christmas in sandals and have the windows rolled down because it's 60 degrees. Gotta love it!
