I am an outdoor person

I love going and doing things out doors. I love playing all the sports and games I can. I love watching the kids explore. Here is a fun find for those who love the outdoors.

Green Hour

It is so nice finding out what is going on outside in your local area:)

The Birthday Boy!




Nov. 7th 2008
Dear Gabe.
Today you turned five. I can’t believe you are that old. We have had a fun week at preschool giving the kids fruit roll-ups. We had a chocolate cake and you were thrilled. Our family has just loved listening to all your ideas and conversations.

One night a couple weeks ago you told us that
“Jesus likes bums because he put them on us”
Your Dad and I were just giggling.

We have seen you ride your bike, start to write and love to throw your parachute man off the play structure. Today you are sick but you still want to go to school anyways. It is sharing day and we’re bringing your class a treat. You are such a good kid in class. We love your desire to learn all you can.

You have really brought some great things to our family the introduction to Thomas the train. Caiuo is your favorite show right now. We love when you and Mae play “Rosie and Caiou” It is so adorable all the things you tell her and she tells you to say.
You occasionally fight but it isn’t that bad. We usually catch it before it turns ugly☺


You have such a soft spot for those kids that are struggling in your class. There is a little boy Juan and he is sad each time his mom leaves you go and help him to play and take his mind off the sad stuff and focus on the toys.

You have really grown my son into some one I love hanging out with and having our special talks. Happy Birthday boy!

We love you!

Prop 8 and the Crazyness around these parts.


This was two different days we went to the Prop 8 Table on Campus :)

And we are back online!
First there is the Election! I am so glad it is over! I have so many feelings and thoughts about what all was going down and didn't get to share them until after. I am all bottled up. I have posting constipation!

Prop 8 stirred up some crazy happenings in this town. This picture was takend when my Band and I went to discuss the issue at UC Davis campus. We brought the kids and we left 15 minutes early. The fifteen minutes the people at the Yes on 8 table got water ballooned every five or so minutes! Right after we left. I guess they waited for us to leave thankfully! It was so crazy.
