Summer is Here!








Well there are good things about summer and bad. One good thing is I dont have to get up and drag children out of bed for school. We can be a little more lazier in the morning. The bad thing is that this might be our last summer being so close to family and we can't really even afford to go anywhere. This last weekend Amy and her family came to see us for our 32 birthday...... but really it was a excuse to be together again, I dont know too many people who throw big birthday bashes after 30 ;) Monterey is not a big place at all, and there isn't a whole lot to do once you have done the tourest things a few times. Although I would have to say our highlights were doing out usual 20 minute freeze at the beach for Amy and the girls, going to see Kung Fu Panda, and riding the Trolley through Monterey to go have lunch on Cannery Row. I love when they come to see us, and we miss them when they leave.

Another great thing this visit from Amy and the clan was that she was able to go to Lucy's last day of her preschool. Here is a cute picture of them two eating lunch together.

cr02160237eThat was really nice that the Collins family came to visit . I know Amy likes to visit family. Even though the way gas prices right now,we will find ways to see each other for our last specail visits.It's really hard to see you leave soon! We have really been fortunate to get close to Kya and Lucy since you have moved closer to us. They been close to our hearts. I have watched them grow and have made thier own personalities, especailly Kya's laugh. Moving to Hawaii will be far, but Japan will be even farther away. we will miss all of you ALOT. What ever choice that is given to Jeremy we will back him up 100%. Love always mom & dad

I tried to comment to you mom earlier although the computer crashed. I know this time has been such a wonderful blessing for us. It's been hard money wise. Although being closer to our family has made that wound easier to deal with. Just being close for for things like the birth of Brody,even all the birthdays,little get togethers, slumber parties....etc. When we do leave California just know we will come back......Nothing means more to us then all of you.
