ok so here are a few pics from my fabulous weekend with julie....and the yard sale. there were no takers on the kids.

best friend

ok only 5 more days until julie is here. i have so much to do to get ready. mostly cleaning house. does anybody else have a closet full of clothes that don't fit anymore? why do i hang on to size 6 jeans. it's never going to happen. i need to face reality. and the reality is i eat ice cream every night at 10:30pm with chocolate sauce no less. i guess there are worse things. anyway back to cleaning house. have a great day. check out the pic. it's a stroll back in time.

The work is demanding, the impact everlasting.

Disneyland

on monday i decided isaiah and i needed a vacation. maybe it was really only me that needed the vacation. anyhow, i somehow talked my boss into giving me the week off and i got home from work at 5:30, booked a flight online at 6:30, and got on a plane at 7:30 and off to disneyland we went. we had a great time. we met our friends over there and spent 2 days at disneyland and california adventure and 1 day at knotts berry farm. (check out the pics) we are home now and its back to work i go. oh and we also somehow managed to potty train amidst the chaos. HOORAY!! no more poopy diapers.

Who cares?

Ok so I'm trying this blog thing even though it would seem to me I have nothing important to share. Actually the more I thought about the more I realized this could be really good cheap therapy even if nobody reads it at all. I have had such a good time reading everybody else's blogs. What a great way to keep in touch.
