Garden Pictures & Miscellaneous Tid Bits

We're really getting inundated with everything from squash to carrots and lettuce. Our schedules are also becoming more inundated. I took these pictures last weekend and meant to post them here on Saturday but could find no time to do so. We attended THREE kid's parties last weekend and one last night!!! Holy cow!!! sometimes I don't know whether I'm coming or going. Furthermore, we have a number of invitations still hanging on the fridge for parties that we have yet to attend. The kids have only been out of school for a week but are already showing signs of boredom. It's a good thing they both start day camp next week.

Coming up soon there will be soccer and I'll probably end up coaching. We're also in the midst of planning a vacation up the coast to Mendocino in August. I'm currently looking for a beach front house to rent. We'll go kayaking, rock fishing, riding on the Skunk Train, tripping through the redwoods and swimming in the myriad of rivers in that area. I absolutely love that part of Northern California and think it has one of the most beautiful coast lines in the state.

Jason's 6th birthday party is next weekend. Mauricio intends to B-B-Q and I hired a really good magician that will supposedly saw a kid in half. I'm really looking forward to volunteering one of my kids for that trick, ha-ha! Contrary Colleen and Seamstrix, you guys are invited. It's from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. this Saturday. I apologize for forgetting to mention it before now.

And finally, I now know for a fact that I am going to be heading to Australia for business before Fall. It's been written in stone that I must go. I'm just not sure when but I'll need to somehow squeeze that in to the ever growing list of things I must do this Summer.
