Our Busy Week

After hosting 6 days of State Tournament at our ballpark, we had a few days to get the kids ready to go to Santa Barbara for baseball / softball camp. While they were at camp, Kevin and I spent a few days in Solvang, came back to work for one day and went straight back to pick up the kids. Morgan got out of camp on Thursday and Dalton on Friday, so we spent some time on the coast. We visited Solvang with Morgan then picked up Dalton on Friday and headed to Avila Beach. The sea lions were out, along with the pelicans and even some squirrels in the rocks. After stopping at the Avila Valley Farm to feed the animals (we washed our hands), we drove into Morro Bay for lunch. The beach was very windy on the north side of the bay, but the kids had fun collecting shells or little crabs.

We are finally at home again, Kevin is at work (his new shift is horrible) and the kids are at a birthday party with Nana. This week starts Regional Tournament in Kingsburg. Our 12 year old Central California State Champs face Guam on Monday. You know where we will be throughout the week.

WHO KNEW ?

Well, you can't always trust what you see on television. I'm sure you've seen COPS on television and see them haul people off to jail for fighting and physical assault / battery. Well, it doesn't really work that way. The attacked person has to actually press charges, even if there is visual evidence such as a torn shirt, bruising to the arm, etc. They can only haul in the agressor if it is a domestic dispute or when the parties involved live under the same roof. So, needless to say, some of us were very upset to find out that there was nothing the cop was going to do other than give a "stern" warning. Obviously the agressor has also watched COPS, because when the officer began to question her regarding the incident, she denied everything and then claimed to be a diabetic having a hypoglycemic episode. You would expect that since this happened at work the employer would be responsible to take some kind of action as well. Anyways, if you have a co-worker that b...

Cooler Nights = Quilting

If you would like to curl up under this quilt with your favorite book and a cup of hot chocolate, contact Immanuel High School. This quilt will be up for auction on November 1st at their dinner auction fundraiser. We will see if this quilt can beat the little league quilt that sold for $2100. I will consider requests for special orders from family, friends and non-profit organizations.

School Days

Can you believe that the whole family is in school right now? Dalton started high school this year and Morgan is in seventh grade. They are growing up way too fast! In addition to juggling their schedules with school events, sports and homework projects, Kevin and I are both taking classes. Kevin is taking Spanish this semester to become bilingual. Actually, he is finally starting to get some of his general ed requirements. I have been after him for a long time, but he says he isn't looking to promote and hasn't shown much interest in a degree until recently. Never say never though; you don't know what God has planned for your future. Only two classes left for me and then I'll be able to apply to the Physician Assistant program; chemistry and microbiology. Hopefully some of the classes will also apply towards my bachelor's degree and then maybe a master's degree.
