1. so happy to have jord home from his week long trip to sea world. he left on monday with his classmates and teachers and came home yesterday, looking tan and happy. what i love the most is that he told me that he made a goal for himself on monday to try EVERYTHING. i seriously wanted to cry when i heard this. he is usually timid and has no problem saying "no" to something, no matter how much he is encouraged. but on his own he decided to make the most of the trip and try everything that was asked. and he told me he did. he went on the rides, touched a shark, fed a manta ray and dolphin and ate the lens of a squid. wow! i am so proud of him.
2. celebrated heritage day today in andrew's class. he brought in some pictures, a pinata and a recording that my dad did from his show. we had an international feast for lunch. we brought pan dulce or pink cookie as the kids call it and made pizza. i know, what does pizza have to do with his heritage, nothing really. other than the fact that's it part of our friday night tradition and he loves it. then we had the kids break open the pinata. fun.
3. went to happy hour at starbucks with my sister. 50% off frappuccinos 3-5 pm until sunday, can't pass that up.
4. bobby starts his softball games tonight. good luck to los doyers.
5. bobby and i are heading to ventura this weekend for some r&r. we're staying at the cliff house thanks to bob and d. we are getting massages, going to dinner, hanging out by the beach, going antique shopping and maybe even to the
strawberry festival in oxnard. it looks to be a perfect weekend.

Way to go Jord! Sounds like a great trip! Let's hope for no injuries this year, Dobby! And have fun in Ventura...word of warning on the strawberry festival: they're expecting over 67,000 people so be prepared for crowds! Feel free to stop by if you get caught in traffic!
