MDN Padres JV Football

This is a 20 sec. video of last weeks game. Justin was a super star and this was one of the last plays of the night. If the other team would have made this two point conversion they would have won by one point. Justin is #74 if you couldn't tell!!

So sorry it's been so long....

I really have a strong desire to learn how to design digital scrapbook materials. I like to lay on my bed and doodle in photoshop. I like to do this more then doing dishes, laundry and making dinner. My family is starting to notice. Bummer. Oh, well. I sometimes have some thing to show for it.


Here is Grace and her cousin Patrick Jr. This was taken about a month ago when Jr was here to celebrate Granny's birthday. We like it when Jr visits and hope to see him soon.

I did not create any of the supplies for this page. I would love to learn how.

For those who yearn for more Edward and Bella

A friend of mine called me today to tell me about her find. It was new to both her and me. I'm sure like always, I'm a day late and a dollar short. I wanted to direct you to here to read a portion of Midnight Sun that Stephanie was working on but somehow got leaked on the Internet. She didn't want her fans reading the unedited copy so she has posted a PDF file on her site. It is 200 + page read from Edward's point of view. I haven't been able to find the time to finish Breaking Dawn yet so it may be awhile before I get to this.

So how late am I on this find?

Justin Ramblings....

Ok, so after I bragged about how good Mitchell was on Wednesday at baseball, Justin had to go and shine at football on Thursday. He started at defensive end and played all of the defensive plays! He almost sacked the QB a few times and sure put a lot of pressure on him. He was so pumped up and was happy to take the victory.

I was approached by one of the moms from the team and asked if I would take pictures on the field last week and this coming up week. I agreed very quickly and now am a little nervous.

Saturday was Mt. Point's homecoming. Justin and Kanani looked good together! He had a blast and saw several friends from Jr. High there.

Now for a picture.


I took over 700 photos of the football game and have not gone through them to decide which ones I like yet.

Ramblings

We just had a fabulous baseball night!!! My Mitchell was a super star at second base and short stop! It is so fun to watch your son grow as a person and a ball player. Way to go Mitch, I know you are proud of your self and we are so very proud of you.

Ok, so after talking about it for a few nights here is the picture of Toby's tattoo....I know this is a shock to for some of you, but whatever, it is his body and he can mark it up as he see fits. This is an elk skull that Toby drew for the guy to "ink". Do I mind? I could care less, it is his body.

On to Justin and Kanani and homecoming. Kanani invited Justin to Mt. Point's homecoming this Saturday. She came over and decorated the drive with a poem saying

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
It would be really sweet
To go to my homecoming with you.

And she baked him a four layer cake


I couldn't leave out Chris in this post, he has missed the last few days of school due to this



and he WILL be going to school tomorrow. Could tomorrow be a boy free day? Oh, how exciting.

Your Ice Cream Personality:



You are not a particularly modest person. You're proud of who you are, and you don't care who knows it.



You are incredibly cautious. You rather miss out on something than make a mistake. No one would ever call you wild... but they would call you responsible.



You are a somewhat open minded person, but deep down you're fairly conservative. You don't like trying new things very much. And if you do find something new you like, you stick with it.



You are a natural multitasker. You feel alive when you're doing more than one thing at a time.



You can be a big dramatic and over the top sometimes. You are bold in every way

What a weekend!!

What a fun weekend we had. Mitchell had a full weekend of baseball and it was fantastic. We lost the first game, but then won the next two. We lost the championship game by one point and we should have won, but don't all losing teams say that? I should have pictures soon.

Grace enjoyed playing with Murphy, the Mitchell's dog.

Saturday between games we went to Burger King for lunch. Mitchell asked me if I was a happy parent. I said, yes, why? He said that I needed to be in order for Grace to play on the playset!! Here is the proof.
I guess BK now serves Prosac with value meal #1.

Toby was laughig at rule # 6.

Run Mitchell Run

Yesterday Mitchell had his first of two cardiologist appointments this week. At this appointment we had the stress test done and next one will be the echo and talking to the Dr.



Gabe got Mitch all prepped for the test. He used a few different types of wipes to loosen the oils on his skin and then alcohol strips to dry it out. The last part was to use some sand paper to scrub away any of the dead skin. Ouch...Mitchell said it wasn't to bad. Next, came all of the snaps.



Mitchell makes going to the doctor look fun.

Here comes the fun part. The wires and the treadmill.....

Blood Pressure Check

Start out slow

Now we are moving.

Mitchell said he was day dreaming of running up the hill at Grandma Jake's house.

After the test was complete, I asked the Dr. if he would let Mitchell play baseball. He said Yes. Mitch did great on the test. His heart stayed even and he didn't have any chest pains. Good Job, buddy.
