BAD WORDS!!

Today, Max came home from kindergarten and told me they say bad words in his class! WHAT? This is kindergarten!!! Well, they are learning short ( a ) now so they use the word fat. A LONG time ago somebody called someone fat on T.V. I told the boys that this was not a nice word, so they use chubby or fluffy (they came up with that on their own :) So now I have to tell them they can say fat but never CALL anyone fat. Boy, I wish they would always listen this good.

IKE JAMMIN' OUT!



( Sorry but you may have to pause the music)... Ike loves to dance, but he loves to play the guitar even more... My brother in law, Andy, caught him in action! We are in Monterey listening to a one-man-band. We may have a future rockstar !! I think this is pretty cute!!

Can you believe school has started? Yesterday was their first day. They were both so excited! I could hear Cole telling Max exactly what he would be doing in Kindergarten. (Now that Cole is so old ya know?) They did not want us to take them to school! They are ready for the bus. They lost out though :0 They did get to ride the bus home. Max is only on there with kindergartners. When I picked him up he was waving like crazy out the window and was so excited! Oh, I wish Cole could ride that bus! Luckily, he is the first stop home so I don't have to worry too long! He loves it! Max has lots of friends from church in his class. I think he is going to have a great year.

Cole doesn't really know anyone in his class this year. I'm sure he will make lots of friends. He does go to the cafeteria now. AHHH - Does the worrying ever stop? Please have a friend to sit by, please don't drop your tray, etc... Am I nuts or what? He really seems to enjoy going and picking his own food. He is very independent. Well, so far, so good! I will keep ya posted. GOOD LUCK BOYS!!!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL





THE BEACH

YOSEMITE

PALMER'S VACATION IN CALIFORNIA!






Greg's sisters Holly, Heidi, and Angee (and the hubbies) brought the crew to California! It was a fun packed busy week! (Greg and I "vacationed" too:) We started off in Arnold. Greg found a nice BIG cabin for all 23 of us!! It had a huge game room for the kids. We went to BIG TREES Park, and Yosemite. Both were amazing. Then they came to Oakdale to check out where we live.. We had to take them to Johns Incredible Pizza to see what all the fuss is about :) The next day, we headed to Santa Cruz for the beach boardwalk!! It was so much fun. Finally, we visited the aquarium in Monterey. The boys love it and wanted to show their cousins. We had so much fun with the family!! We love you guys. Can't wait for our next adventure!! MISS YOU!!

GUESS ITS GOOD I DIDNT LIVE IN THE 60'S HUH?




You Belong in 1963



You are a free spirit with a huge heart. Love, peace, and happiness rule - oh, and drugs too.






You Belong in Rome



You're a big city soul with a small town heart

Which is why you're attracted to the romance of Rome

Strolling down picture perfect streets, cappuccino in hand

And gorgeous Italian people - could life get any better?
