We now have 6 grandchildren. I love the ocean and Catalina is one of my favorites places. Blaine loves the mountains and fishing and hunting, he also loves Catalina.

The Fair 2011

Well we (Me, Dad, Grannie, Jazmine, Zara, Kate, Quinn, James and Andrew) went to the fair for Quinn's birthday this year. I really enjoyed myself. We saw the animals and the petting zoo was amazing this year. We walked through some boring buildings according to the boys and I bought my fudge. We then let the boys ride a few rides. Andrew went on the Ferris wheel with Jazmine, James went down the slide and it was cheaper than the ferris wheel so he went on a fun house that was a dud. WE then went to the big rides and Kate rode an upside down coaster with Quinn, Jaz went on some spinning ride and then James, Zara and I went on the one that goes in a circle fast with loud music. James loved it. Quinn then spoiled the boys with some souvenirs.

Labor Day

We took Zara to Port Hueneme for a day at the beach. She had never seen the ocean before. We had a great time, Grannie met a friend down there and Emilee and Gary joined us. Quinn, Devonn Carla and the kids came. They sure had fun. Kids just love the beach. I love it too, so relaxing. We left around 3 and headed to the arcade. That was a lot of fun and Blaine got his salt water taffy. We went to Taco Bell on our way home.
