WELL, THE KIDS PARTY WAS GREAT! THANKS AGAIN NANA AND PAPA FOR EVERYTHING

We're Having a Birthday Party.....

Thanks to Papa and Nana, I'm going to be able to have the kids party this Sat. Jeremy's already 9, (July) and Kaylee will be 6 the end of this month so we are having a combined pool party. They are going to help pay for the food and stuff which I cannot do now that I am jobless. My mom is going to get the nacho stuff so that will help too! I'm asking for clothes for them too for school cause I only have about 3 new school outfits each, but have no shoes, socks or chonies yet though. I know they'll get some toys so some clothes will be nice too! (Is that wrong of me or what) It's not like they don't like new clothes cause they both do!! I know everything will work out someday so I just keep my head up day by day. What else can I do.... I have my resume out there and am hoping to land something soon. I just wonder, ya know I think about all the stuff Eric and I have done over so many years for everyone else, our families, providing a wonderful home for J and K and just a whole lot of stuff and we just never see anything come back. I guess good things come to those who wait??? Anyhow, hope all is well and we'll talk at ya'll later.....

a day at the beach......and then some

things are really bad at work and i escaped today to the beach with my sis, nephew, chris and J----K was at E's mom's in hemet visiting...... i will keep ya'll updated, but as of now, things look pretty bad about my JOB... (looks likeI'm losing my job) I don't know what I'm gonna do at this point.......but i also know that i cannot dwell on it either... maybe things do happen for a reason.....Please keep me and my family in your prayers cause this is what I am doing at this point.... Thank you.....

J really had a great time boogy boarding for the first time with a board. I was a bit scared at first and then realized how much fun he was having and just kept my eyes on him to make sure he was safe!!!! He did so good and had so much fun......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY'S ARE IN ORDER!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECCA!!!!!!

MY BABY GIRL IS NOW 19 YEARS OLD.!! SHE IS DOING VERY WELL IN HER NEW APT AND SEEMS TO BE LOVING IT. I DO MISS HER VERY MUCH BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, I AM SO PROUD OF HER TOO. IT'S A BITTERSWEET FEELING. SHE HAD FRIENDS OVER TO HER APT THURS FOR HER BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION AND I HAD A REALLY BAD HEADACHE, SO I WAS NOT FEELING GOOD AT ALL. ERIC AND I DID STOP BY, BUT NOT FOR VERY LONG.... IT WAS PROBABLY BETTER ANYHOW, SINCE IT WAS A BUNCH OF TEEN AGERS AND SUCH. PLUS I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN, I COULDN'Y HARDLY STAND IT..... I WENT TO DR ON FRIDAY AND GOT A SHOT AND THEY PUT ME ON OXYGEN IN A DARK ROOM FOR 30 MINUTES TO HELP THE PAIN. SO FAR, SO GOOD. DON'T QUITE KNOW IF THIS WAS AN ACTUAL MIGRAINE, BUT IT WAS A 3 DAY LONG BAD HEADACHE... PROBABLY STRESS RELATED..... I DON'T KNOW.... I TOLD HER I WILL MAKE IT UP TO HER AND HER AND I WILL GO TO LUNCH OR DINNER TO CELEBRATE. HERE ARE SOME PICS FROM HER BIG NIGHT....

CHRISTOPHER, MY NEPHEW, CELEBRATED HIS 3RD THIS LAST SATURDAY AND WE ALL HAD FUN. HE HAD A BIG POOL PARTY WITH LOTS OF GOOD FOOD AND GIFTS AND FUN!!!!!!!!!!! HE WAS SO INTO EVERYTHING THIS YEAR WHERE AS LAST YEAR HE WAS STILL A BIT SHY! HE HAD AN ABSOLUTE BALL JUST WATCHING EVERYONE SWIM AND SWIMMING HIMSELF, THEN OPENING PRESENTS..... WELL- HE STARTED THROWING THE NEW CLOTHES TO THE SIDE AND ONLY WANTING THE TOYS, OF COURSE!!!! BUT HE HAD LOTS OF FUN!! IT TURNED OUT GREAT!!!! HERE ARE SOME PICS FROM OUR BUSY DAY. (MY MOM, GRANDMA IS BELOW HIDING IN THE POOL TOYS TOO!)

CAN'T EVEN GET IT TO TURN ON.... I AM SO PISSED ALL MY PICS ARE ON THERE... SO I FINALLY HOOKED UP THE COMPUTER I GOT FROM DAVID. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WERE SOME SORT OF SIGN FROM HIM OR WHAT, BUT EXACTLY ONE YEAR AFTER HE PASSED MY COMPUTER STOPS WORKING AND I HOOK UP HIS THAT HE HAD AT HIS PLACE.... WEIRD, HUH? THIS COMPUTER IS ALOT BETTER THAN MINE ACTUALLY, I JUST HADN'T HAD ALL THE TIME TO TRANSFER ALL MY STUFF ONTO THIS ONE. GUESS I'LL HAVE TO NOW IF I CAN GET INTO MY OLD ONE..... OH WELL!

HERE ARE SOME PICS FROM MY GOOD FRIENDS WEDDING I WENT TO ON 07-07-07!!. IT WAS SO NICE, RIGHT ON THE BEACH DOWN IN LAGUNA! VERY BEAUTIFUL AND THE RECEPTION WAS GREAT!!! CONGRATULATIONS JERRY & HEATHER!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TO MY BIG BABY GIRL, KAY FOR GRADUATING KINDERGARTEN! THE CEREMONY WAS VERY NICE AND ADORABLE! IT WAS A HAWAIIAN STYLE GRADUATION AND THEY WERE ALL DRESSED FOR A LUAU PARTY!!!! THEY SANG TO US AND RECEIVED A FLOWER LEI FROM THEIR TEACHER AND THEIR CERTIFICATE! SHE BROUGHT HOME HER BIG MEMORY BOOK THAT SHE HAS BEEN MAKING ALL YEAR LONG. IT IS SO CUTE! HERE SHE IS STANDING ALL PROUD AND HAPPY!!!



THANKS TO ALL THAT CAME TO SEE HER DURING HER BIG DAY, DADDY, UNCLE ERIC AND JAMES, AUNT MELISSA AND CHRISTOPHER!, I KNOW SHE REALLY LOVED SEEING ALL OF US THERE TO CELEBRATE! AFTERWARDS, CHRISTOPHER CAME OVER FOR A WHILE AND THE KIDDIES WENT SWIMMING AND HUNG OUT. THEN I MADE HER FAVORITE DINNER, BBQ RIBS, BEANS AND RICE! SHE CHOWED DOWN ON HER RIBS AND HAD A GREAT TIME!



WE HAVE A NEW ADDITION TO OUR "ALREADY LARGE ENOUGH FAMILY" A NEW PUPPY. SHE IS HALF LLASO APSO AND HALF YORKIE. (SHE WAS FREE AND I FELL IN LOVE WITH HER) SHE IS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE AND THE KIDS LOVE HER TO DEATH. I DON'T HAVE TOO MANY GOOD PICS OF HER YET BUT BELIEVE ME, I WILL ! SHE HAS ADAPTED REALLY WELL IN JUST A LITTLE OVER ONE WEEK! IT'S LIKE HAVING A BABY IN THE HOUSE, CAUSE SHE IS SO DARN SMALL AND I HAVE TO MAKE SURE SHE GETS HER PUPPY FOOD TWICE A DAY INSTEAD OF GETTING INTO LEXI AND KARLS FOOD. LEXI AND KARL HAVE BEEN SO GOOD WELCOMING HER INTO OUR HOME! THEY ARE BEING A VERY GOOD BIG BROTHER AND SISTER TO HER!



OTHER THEN THAT, I'M TRYING TO ONCE AGAIN, FIGURE OUT SOME VERY CHEAP THINGS TO DO BEFORE I GO BACK TO WORK. I JUST WISH THAT I COULD BOOK A ROOM AND TAKE THE KIDS SOMEWHERE BEFORE I GO BACK TO WORK ON THE 5TH. BUT BECAUSE MONEY IS SO TIGHT RIGHT NOW, I DON'T THING WE'LL BE DOING MUCH AT ALL. WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR THIS DARN LOAN TO GO THROUGH AND FINALIZE IN ORDER TO SEE IF OUR REFINANCE IS GONNA GO THROUGH. FIRST THINGS FIRST, I GUESS. WE MUST HAVE A HOME TO LIVE IN BEFORE WE HAVE ANY EXTRA FUN, RIGHT? ANYWHO.... HOPE ALL IS GOING WELL SO FAR THIS SUMMER!!!!



I AM DOG SITTING THIS WEEKEND SO I WONT BE DOING ANYTHING THIS WEEKEND BUT HOPEFULLY WANT TO PLAN FOR THIS NEXT WEEEK AND WEEKEND!!!!!



AND IF YA'LL HAVE ANY IDEAS ON CHEAP SUMMER FUN, LET ME KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!

...........MOVING OUT............

WELL, SAT WAS THE BIG DAY. BECCA IS OFFICIALLY MOVED OUT AND IN HER APARTMENT. YES, I'M STILL DEALING WITH IT. I DON'T THINK IT HAS REALLY HIT ME YET AS IT HAS ONLY BEEN ONE DAY. I AM SO PROUD OF HER AND SHE IS DOING SO WELL AS HER YOUNG ADULT LIFE BEGINS TO BLOSSOM. I THINK BACK SOMETIMES AND WONDER HOW OR IF MY LIFE WOULD BE DIFFERENT IF I GOT THE SOME OF THE SAME CHANCES THAT SHE IS GETTING. I GUESS I'M BRAGGING JUST A LITTLE BY SAYING THAT, BUT THAT'S OK, RIGHT? ANYHOW, HERE ARE SOME PICS DURING MOVING DAY AND I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO CAME AND HELPED (JAMES!!!) AND FOR ALL THE STUFF THAT WAS GIVEN TO HER. IF IT WEREN'T FOR OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE ALOT OF THE STUFF THEY HAVE! A BED, DINING ROOM TABLE AND CHAIRS, RECLINER, ENTERTAINMENT CENTER AND OF COURSE SOME EXTRA CASH THAT WENT TOWARDS THEIR DEPOSIT! WE'RE STILL LOOKING FOR A COUCH AND LOVE SEAT SO IF YA'LL KNOW OF A USED/CHEAP SET, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. WE ALMOST GOT A SET SAT MORN FROM A YARD SALE, BUIT WE WERE LIKE 10 MINUTES TO LATE, DARN IT!!!! I WISH I HAD THE MONEY TO GET HER THE THINGS SHE NEEDS, BUT I JUST DON'T, SO LITTLE BY LITTLE, HOPEFULLY EVERYTHING WILL FALL INTO PLACE. I WENT BACK OVER TODAY AND HELPED HER HANG SOME OF HER PICTURES UP. (SHE CALLED ME AND ASKED ME TO COME) AND SHE HAS ALREADY BEEN BACK HERE TONIGHT TO DO LAUNDRY!!! I ASKED HER HOW IT WAS LAST NIGHT AND SHE SAID, A LITTLE SCARY BUT ALRIGHT. I ASSURED HER THAT SHE'LL GET USED TO IT AND SHE KNOWS THAT I AM ONLY A PHONE CALL AWAY AS WELL AS 5 MINUTES. (SHE TOLD ME THE SAME THING!!!) I LOVE YOU BECCA AND I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!

HOPE YOU ALL HAD A GOOD WEEKEND!!!

HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY JAMES!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, JAMES!!!! WE CELEBRATED TODAY AT HIS MOMS HOUSE. SHE AND MY SIS THREW HIM A BIG PARTY WITH BIG SUB SANDWICHES, HOT LINKS, CHIPS AND CHILI AND CHEESE, SALADS AND OF COURSE CAKE AND ICE CREAM.. (OH YEAH, DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE PONY KEG! )

I MADE THE CAKE FOR HIM AND IT CAME OUT REALLY YUMMY. I USED 4 CAKE MIXES AND 3 THINGS OF FROSTING NOT INCLUDING THE DECORATIVE FROSTING I USED. I DECORATED IT LIKE A CEMETARY FOR FUN AND LAUGHS!!!! IT'S A 14 INCH DOUBLE LAYER CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING!!!! EVERYONE LOVED IT!!!

MY SIS USED SOME OF MY HALLOWEEN DECO FOR PARTY PROPS SO THERE WAS TOMBSTONES AND STUFF OUT IN THE BACK YARD.... IT WAS ALL FOR FUN AND TO CELEBRRATE HIS "OVER-THE-HILL" YEAR!!!! WE PLAYED A COUPLE OF GAMES TOO! WHERE THE GUYS HAVE DRESS IN WOMENS CLOTHES, BRA AND ALL AND THE GIRLS DRESS IN GUYS CLOTHES AND DO A RELAY. IT WAS SO FUNNY WATCHING EVERYONE TRY AND HELP DRESS THEIR TEAM MATES UP!!!!

WE ALL HAD A GREAT TIME AND ME AND THE KIDS CAME HOME... E WENT TO PLAY POKER (AS USUAL) AND MY BRO IS STILL AT THE PARTY.....

MY MOM GAVE US A SCARE YESTERDAY... I AM REALLY WORRIED ABOUT HER LATELY. SHE WENT IN FOR A DR APPT CAUSE SHE'S BEEN HAVING SOME TROUBLE BREATHING AND STUFF. WELL, HER BLOOD PRESSURE WAS HIGH AND HER DR WHEELED HER STRAIGHT OVER TO ER AND HAD HER ADMITTED TO RUN SOME TESTS. THEY PUT HER ON OXYGEN AND RAN SOME TESTS, GAVE HER A SHOT AND LET HER GO HOME. SHE HAS TO FOLLOW UP WITH HER DR AND THEY WANT HER TO HAVE A SONOGRAM DONE OF HER HEART TO CHECK FOR FLUID. SHE DOESN'T REALLY TELL US KIDS THAT SHE'S FEELING BAD CAUSE SHE DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO KNOW HERSELF SO WE TOLD HER SHE NEEDS TO REALLY START TAKING BETTER CARE OF HERSELF. IT'S NOT TIME FOR HER TO LEAVE US YET. WE'LL HAVE TO GET ON HER TO FOLLOW UP WITH HER APPTS AND STUFF TO MAKE SURE SHE'S DOING OK.... HERE'S A PIC OF HER WITH VANESSA FROM THE PARTY TODAY.....

BECCA AND JOSH HAVE BEEN ON TEXAS. THEY DROVE OUT WED NIGHT AND ARE COMING HOME TOMORROW. THEY WENT OUT FOR HIS BRO'S GRADUATION. THEY ARE MOVING INTO THEIR APARTMENT NEXT WEEKEND!!! THEY ARE SO EXCITED AND I'M EXCITED FOR THEM TOO!

HOPE EVERYONE HAS A WONDERFUL AND SAFE 3 DAY WEEKEND!!!!! IT'S A PAYROLL MONDAY FOR ME SOME I'LL BE GOING IN TO THE OFFICE FOR A WHILE ON MONDAY........

WE ALSO SPLURGED AND HAD KARL GROOMED AND SHAVED. OOOOHHHHH MY, WHEN WE PICKED HIM UP ON SUNDAY, I THOUGHT WE WERE PICKING UP A DIFFERENT DOG. (KARL SAYS HI TO GRAMDMA AND GRANDPA MARIANI!!!!! )( THIS GROOMING TRIP, HE HAD NO FLEA PROBLEMS--- (WHICH I THOUGHT WAS WEIRD, THE LAST TIME AS LEXI HAS NEVER EVER HAD A FLEA PROBLEM.... AND HIS EARS WERE IN GREAT SHAPE! I GUESS THE MEDICINE I'VE BEEN GIVEN HIM IS WORKING GOOD NOW! (FRONTINE PLUS AND HIS EAR MEDS, PANALOG) THIS TIME, I TOLD THE GROOMER TO HAVE HIM AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE, CAUSE HE JUST GETS SO LONG AND RAGGEDY LOOKING.....HE LOOKS SO GOOD!!!!! HE WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE ME WHEN I PICKED HIM UP..... I THINK HE MAY HAVE BEEN THINKING THAT HE WAS GETTING DUMPED OFF AGAIN CAUSE HE REALLY DOES NOT LIKE CAR RIDES AND SINCE WE HAVE HAD HIM, HE HAS NOT BEEN FOR CAR RIDES OFTEN,,,, BUT WHEN WE DO, HE IS VERY HESITATE..... WE HAVE TO PICK HIS FAT BUTT UP AND PUT HIM IN THE CAR....HE IS GETTING SO MUCH BETTER WITH EVERYTHING AND WE HAVE GROWN SO CLOSE TO HIM..... I AM SURE HE FEELS MUCH BETTER TOO! SO HERE HE IS--- $45 DOLLARS LATER! WOULDN'T YOU BE COMFORTABLE LOOKING ALL COOL LIKE HE DOES..... HERE ARE SOME VARIOUS PICS I TOOK THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND AS WELL....

ALSO------BECCA GOT HER FIRST APARTMENT AND IS MOVING OUT IN LESS THAN 2 WEEKS...... I'M TRYING TO DEAL WITH IT..... MY BABY IS MOVING OUT ON HER OWN AND I FEEL LIKE I'M LOSING HER..... I KNOW THAT I AM NOT NOT BUT STILL..... IT DOES HURT A LITTLE BIT.

HOPE YOU ALL HAD A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!!!! LOVE AND MISS EVERYONE!!!!!
