2 months off
Since January 26 quite a bit has happened. I could devote a page on each event but I wouldn't get to watch Riding the Rails tonight. From what the cover says it's a "must see" documentary on hobo life in the 20's and 30's and due to it's "must see" admonition I can't write all night long.
From soonest event to furthest back: Jack and Ezra have had colds and Jack was awake most of last night with an ear ache. It was his first ever. Stacee turned 33 on the 23rd and we threw quite an all day party here starting with waffles, whipped cream, berries and maple syrup for breakfast, presents and decorations of course, and fresh maine lobster for dinner. The fun of Birthdays for us has changed in the same way Christmas has. We enjoy the days but the kids get SO into it and that makes it more fun...We're old. Stacee is looking pretty pregnant lately. Only 2 months to go.
Jack and Ezra both completed their gymanstics classes for the year and did quite well without injuring themselves or others (much).
We've met a few families that have migrated this way from MA and NY recently and have hit it off pretty well with them.
Matt Eric Dad and I all played in a 3/3 tournament sponsored by their church. It was held at Gordon and despite my back bothering me and Eric's broken toe, we played pretty well. We had some differing views on how we should play but in the end we did well. Not great but well enough to mention it here.
Rewinding back further, to mid February, we met Penny and her kids and my grandparents out in San Diego for a week. Mom and Dad flew out with us and we had a GREAT time. The kids had never flown before and being somewhat of a control oriented person I wasn't thrilled about letting someone else fly us out there. Then I realized that A. I'm not a pilot B. I would never drive for 5 days straight with the kids in the Minivan and C. The pilot probably is a control freak too and that's why he does what he does for a living. So we went and had a blast. If you go stay at the Embassey Suite LaJolla. Not for the view or anything like that but for the breakfast buffet that's included in the price. There's a happy hour included too but it was a family vacation afterall. The zoo www.sandiegozoo.com was amazing. Sea World was pricey but worth it and the san diego wild animal park is the BEST. Jack's already planning on attending college right next to the San Diego Zoo.
There isn't much else I will publicly rant on now, perhaps in a month or so. Just remember that little verse in one of Paul's letters (paraphrase) Do everything you can, everything in your power, to be at peace with all men.
