Old Friends - New Conversation ...

Michele Bogan and I have been friends since the late '70's. Oh my gosh that is weird.

Recently, Michele and I have been texting, IMing and are planning to walk the '09 Epilepsy Walk.

I love that it feels like time has not passed and we have picked up from the last time we talked.

At times, I feel like we still live on Camino Del Rey (two houses away)(in country talk ... that is still a long way).
This is an example of a beautiful friendship that will last a lifetime.

Just old friends with new conversation!!!

A Boy and His Saxophone ...

Jeremy is our saxophonist. He has been playing in the school band and is awesome. He actually plays songs!!! We are sooooo proud of hime. Everytime he plays for me it brings tears to my eyes.

Camping Trip Planned ...

We are so excited, we have planned a camping trip with our dear friends, The Rasmussens.
They were our very first neighbors when we bought our home in Corona.
We shared dinners together, laughs, kids births and so many memories.
We have kept in contact since we have moved and are soooooo excited to be meeting up with them to go camping Valentines weekend.
Watch for pictures in the upcoming week of our big trip!

Reuniting with Old Friends ...

As I have gotten older I have really had time to think of the people who mean the most to me.

Reuniting with old friends ... the memories.

Making new friends ... the memories to come.

Holding strong to the love of my family.

Teaching my children true love and great friendship.

Times are a Changing ...

Okay ... so this is my blog where I can vent, share or just type whatever is on my mind.
With that said ...
I have such mixed feelings on where our new President will take us. Our economy is so squeezed right now that it is scarey. Rich has a very stable job and I work in an industry that will always have need. But there are so many people right now that in a blink of an eye could lose everything. All of those currently retired who invested their retirement in stock and have lost it all. Will the President be able to help them?
What about our current War status? Will he just pull everyone back home? And then what? One person can not make these changes by themselves ... we can't assume that he will step into office and make changes with the signing of papers and delegations of duties. It takes a government as a whole and the people have to stand behind it. I am not political .. I am sure you can tell from this but ... please let there be changes.

Glamour Girl ...

Yesterday, Hannah was invited to celebrate her friend Ashley's seventh birthday. She had a glamour girl theme. All the little girls put on lip gloss, blush and a little mascara. Ashley mom, Lisa, is a photographer and she took glamour shots of each girl. I had to share Hannah's ... I think she looks adorable.

Look at my Shadow ...

We were just having fun today and took the dogs to run in a nearby dirt field. I think these are just a blast. They capture each of us in such a fun way.
