Pizza Nova with the grandkids

I took this video a couple weeks ago at Pizza Nova. It’s cute how Maya and Alo communicate. They’re going to miss each other.

Now, just for fun, check out this YouTube video. It made me laugh & I believe you will too.

I finished the family calendar today. It took me about 8 hours total to get it done and I think it’s going to be the best one yet. The theme this year is the grandkids. It’s pretty much all about them. I should receive it before January 15, and I’ll be distributing them when they arrive. Working on it brought back a lot of memories of the past year. There are so many cute pictures. I can’t wait to see the final product.

Soup

Had fun with family & soup! The little ones sure enjoyed themselves. I suppose I should have/could have taken some photos, but I didn’t. I am glad to have the task of making baklava done though!

I’m not so sure about the OB Holiday Tree this year, but I do like the fact that this orchid likes the cold weather. It really is thriving. I know I posted a photo of it a couple weeks ago, but it’s got more blooms now than ever. We have a couple more orchids with buds waiting to bloom too.

Back to work tomorrow, but only for 2 days, then almost 2 weeks off.

Spookier than ever

The pumpkins are looking scarier than ever. Rigor mortis has set in & I believe the worms will be working their way in and out of orifices shorty.

The Cordners atop of Cowles Mountain last weekend. What a great day and view! It looks like Morgan is working his way around the sticker on that apple …

Yesterday when I went to pick Maya up for her gymnastics class, here’s how I found Sparty.

And what’s wrong with this picture?

IMG_0544.JPG
For some strange reason Maya was having trouble walking and kept saying “I need help. I need help.” But she made it all the way from the car to class without accepting that help she was requesting.

No, this isn’t the sunset.

It’s the moonset this morning. I will never tire of the view from our house.

Lastly, Alo and friends this morning practicing his “nice” skills. He needs a lot of practice with that skill …

IMG_0547.JPG
Notice his left hand. I think someone glued his finger to his belly button. The finger must’ve gotten stuck in there because he never removed all morning.

Life’s a Beach

Bruce had the luxury of spending some time at the beach yesterday with Akuch, Alo & Maya.

Maya tries to get Alo closer to the water but he wasn’t going for it …

This cheesecake looks a hellova lot better than it tasted. People were nice enough saying it was good, but it was runny and gross. The crust, on the other hand, was the bomb!!

Maya checking herself out in the mirror in her costume with lipstick!

Waiting to trick or treat.

We had a LOT of fun!

Happy Hour

Last Friday Alo and I stopped by after the park for some Moana Drive Happy Hour. I think I like the group photos the best. The more the happier!

Today … My last Thursday music class with Maya. I’ll miss seeing all our little friends, but starting next week the schedule changes and we’ll be doing gymnastics instead.

AND Nati’s with Papa Bill at 11:30, then I’m teaching an afternoon restorative class in La Mesa & an evening “twists” class at home.

OH!! & Robb’s in town this weekend. He arrived late last night.

Pony rides, fire engines & snakes

A last minute decision – Ron called yesterday & asked if we wanted to got to the Harvest Festival at Pt Loma Nazarene. Invitation accepted, and what a good day we had!

It started with a ride on a horse drawn carriage. I didn’t get a photo of the horses, but here’s a photo of what I looked across at.

Then we got to climb into Station 22’s fire engine (nostalgia for me).

Then the pony ride (Alo’s first). Enjoy this video!

Lastly, Alo and Maya got up close & personal with a boa constrictor. Both were unfazed by the friendly creepy crawler.
