Update
Hello fellow bloggers! Hope all is well. As I mentioned yesterday we have been busy this summer. It has been really nice. When you have three kids you need to stay busy or things start breaking. We started our summer in California. We stayed with my mom for 10 days. Brian had to work so I took the kids by myself; OK not really Anna came with us. She was a great help. We went to the beach, Knot's Berry Farm, and the Wild Animal Park in San Diego. Plus I got to have some yummy sushi with my sister and a few friends. We had a blast. My dad took the boat out. I didn't ski because my dad ran me over with the boat and hurt my other knee. Just kidding I was getting on the boat from the dock and he put the boat in rev. and I bumped my knee and fell in the water.....Everyone laughed except Kayla ( Who obviously loves her mommy) who got tears in her eyes because she thought I was really hurt! For those who don't know.... my dad hurt my other knee over the winter when we were getting off the ski lift and he ran me over! That's okay I am doing better I can finally run again without a knee brace! Speaking of running Kayla is going to be joining a youth Cross Country Team and we are going to be running together in the next few weeks or so. The team is resting they just got back from Nationals. She is going to be great! I hope I can keep up!
Kayla and I got to go to Discovery Kingdom and sleep with Sharks! It was so neat! Her and I took a charter bus to Vallejo Ca and went to the coolest amusement park of all times! I could not believe how great it was. We went on roller coasters, saw whales, dolphins, sharks, tigers, and other Wild Animals. I love that place! Best part was everything was free even food! It gave Kayla and I some mommy and me time which we both needed so badly! We had a BLAST! She even got to dissect a squid!
The little ones are doing so great they both have learned so much from preschool. We get to go for free and I get paid to play with kids all day. Plus I am able to observe and write about my experiences which I will get credit for this coming up semester. I am entering into the teaching program at my school, this will save me a ton of money when it comes time to transfer to the university! But that is a topic I do not want to think about for the next 3 weeks! Audrey is a little firecracker and spends a great deal of time on the grumpy stump. She is talking a lot and has a really fun personality. Tyler is speaking so well he will sit and play with his toys, rocks or anything he can get his hands on. I love watching him play he has such a great imagination!
Brian is good he took a week off work and we went to Grover Hot Springs our kids did so great on our Minny 3 mile hike! I think that is the most they can do. They love to hike and we will be doing a ton of hikes near our home. They all did a little boulder hopping and we went to see a beautiful waterfall. Then we got to play in the water and hang out before we hiked back to our camp site. It was a fun week!
Me I finally got my big break!! Yes folks I made it to the big screen.......Okay that is if you have a big screen TV in your home and you are into comedy or magic shows! As many of you know I have been working with a Casting director who sends me to auditions and gets me extra work. I got to work as an excited audience member for a very neat magic show. Basically I got to watch a magic show that was being filmed for DVD and they filmed my reaction. Then they fed me an incredible lunch, after that I got to watch a comedy show and they filmed me again. It was so much fun.......great news they liked me so much they have asked me to do another one! So next time you are in the mood for a little "Magic" buy a DVD and look for me:)
Well I will wrap this up by saying I am proud to announce that today the Nevada school board posted the school's testing scores and even though the state of NV's school are testing lower than last year. Kayla's school has tested above adequate. So again I am reminded that even though I am paying for her school with tuition and having to pay more for gas; therefore it is going to all pay off with my child getting a wonderful education!
