Six Flags
Our niece Toni and her husband Bob and their baby Kyler are in town visiting. We went to Six Flags today after work. I worked only 3 hours. Anyway, it was very hot and humid, but the boys had a great time.

Spain's pain ended
I cannot believe I missed the Euro Cup Finals. It was a very hectic day today. I have a baby shower today and birthday party both I skipped to watch The finals and the game was bumped off by one of the boys' TV show. Oh well, I will just have to wait the reruns or watch the whole game on youtube. Click here to watch the winning shot by Spain's Fernando Torres.

PLEASE!
I always look forward to running on saturday mornings. I run at at 6am from our house to the beach and along the strand. I love the sound of the birds chirping, morning breeze, the ocean breeze, the sound of the waves and the sunrise. BUT, today as I was running along the esplanade, I saw some unusual "eye sores" such as dog poop. People, please do not forget to bring you plastic bags and dispose them at the proper disposal bins. I also saw some things that I refuse to mention here in my blog. It was disgusting! Throw it in the trash GUYS! Hopefully next week will be better.
After breakfast the boys had a play date with one of Jacob's classmates, and then in the afternoon they had a fun splash day with the swimming pool and slip and slide.

Here is Jacob slipping!
And here is JT sliding!
And here they are together.
What a week
I apologize for this long post. I have been so busy this week and I have been too LAZY to post.
So here goes...
Family Night
The boys love to play baseball,
they grabbed their stuffed toys and made their
own audience. So cute.

Jake is a very shy little guy.
But on the graduation program
he and his class sang very well.
I am so proud of him.
His class sang
We're best friends forever
from the movie
Fox and the Hound
Believe it or not I am still spring cleaning and I saw this picture
of my friends in HIGH SCHOOL!

We enjoyed Chicken Dijon, cupcakes (sorry theses were not sprinkles)
and Klondike bars, YUM!
We talked, laughed, ate and stayed up til 1230

We were all tired, but that did not stop Suzi and I
from running the next day, yikes at 630 !

Heat and Fun
This past weekend has been very HOT. On the news, it was record breaking 100 deg in L.A.
but that did not stop us from having a fun weekend. The boys went swimming at my brother's and had a blast. For movie night we saw Raiders of the Lost Ark. J.T liked it.
Jinky and I met at Hedda's for a girls night out

There is a yummy pastry on the side that I cannot remember.

More food came and I did not take any more pictures.
The last course was a rack of lamb, of which I am not a fan.
It was good though, and did not have the gameyness odor.
Then the Baklava and strawberries with a candle for Hedda's Birthday.
This was served with a Moroccan Mint tea, which my friends said
was very good and a nice way to end a " yummy 8 course meal".
We were expecting to see some celebs, but not even one of the owners Ryan Gosling
was there. We don't know maybe there were celebs and
we didn't notice. We were too busy chatting
eating and laughing.

After dinner we were planning to go to
Sweet Lady Jane
on Melrose,
but someone had a bad fall outside the restaurant
and we helped the man for awhile who had a bad cut.
Jinky tried calling 9-1-1 and she was put on hold for awhile.
Can you believe that? Is it because we're in L.A or the heat?
They said BOTH!
Anyway, 5 minutes later, and both Jinky and another man
were able to get thru and the firemen and paramedics came.
We skipped Sweet Lady Jane and went to
The Grove to catch
the last show time for the
SATC Movie

Summer
Summer...Summer...Summer.
We are so excited.
Today was also J.T's last day at school.
We cannot believe he just finished K.
Where did the time go?
I just remembered taking J.T to his
first day at school
Oh yes, I cried
And today, I left work at 11
and picked him up. I was so happy to be able to see
the last assembly day for this school year.
The principal and vice principal paid tribute to
the teachers who retired and that are not coming back :-(
Then they went back to their classrooms and
gave goodie bags to their classmates.
and Gift cards to teachers and teachers aides.
I also gave this to the room Moms
"Thank you for giving J.T a
HAND this school year"
The kids sang one last song
said goodbye to his friends,classmates
and teachers.
And yes I cried again
J.T got this from his teacher and
put all his homework, art, and
stuff in this box.
After school
J.T and I had a yummy lunch at
one of our fave Hawaiian Restaurants
Then we
picked up Jake and went to the Beach.
We went body surfing
and just ran around.
We had a blast!
It has been a wonderful 1st year
for J.T at the
"BIG KID's SCHOOL"
We are so excited.

Anything is possible
Thats what Kevin Garnett said. It has been 22 years and now they've won it again. Bonnie I am sure David is so happy and excited. Yes, Paul is very happy and was really cheering for them. And my nephew, Lian is a big Paul Pierce fan.
Jacob is so cute, he does not own a Lakers jersey but he has a yellow "Brasil" jerseys and he wore it in honor of the Lakers. So cute. And J.T said they will get back next year. Then they went to bed and did not even finish the game.

We miss you guys
We are so proud of our boys
both flights the boys
were praised How good and behaved they were
during the flight.
Thanks to Jet blue and
books, crayons and coloring.
Paul and I were watching the US open.
It was so intense.
We were all anxious as we touched down in Long Beach
to watch Tiger Woods'
final putt. The doors did not open until it was Tiger's
turn. It was a very exciting finish.
Everyone cheered after he putted.
I'm sure Rocco was so bummed
Tiger Woods forces 18 H play offs tomorrow.
