From Goldfish to Jellyfish
Saturday, October 25, 2008
I took Skyler to his
swim lesson today and he
graduated from Goldfish to Jellyfish at the end
of class. He was so excited when handed his
Goldfish completion ribbon. Also, Josh started
his job orientation today at Home Depot.


Carving Pumpkins
Sunday, October 19, 2008
My parents came over
last night and we decided to get some pumpkins and
carve faces into them. Skyler was a little grossed
out by the “pumpkin innards”, but had
lots of fun helping. I made the scary face, my
parents made the traditional face, and Renea made
the happy face.


San Francisco

Last weekend, Renea and I took Skyler to the
Bay Area and spent time with
Uncle Bill and Aunt Janie. Skyler loved
meeting his 4th cousins (once removed),
Maceo and Jacob. The weather was a nice
change from the 100+ degrees in Phoenix.
Lots of photos were taken.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!
Sunday, October 05, 2008
Right now, Skyler and
I are watching some YouTube videos. We just finished
It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie
Brown! It brought back memories of watching
it on TV.
We started because Skyler was upset and kept saying he wanted pumpkins. I didn’t know exactly what he was asking for, but I immediately thought of the Peanuts show. It was enjoyable, watching his expressions as the silly characters played out on the computer screen.

I Voted Today!
Thursday, October 02, 2008
I just filled out my
early mail-in ballot for this November’s
Elections! Earlier, I watched Sarah Palin and Joe
Biden debate on the economy, energy, and foreign
affairs. I thought Governor Palin did awesome and
really showed everyone that she can handle the job
as vice president.
The only bad thing about voting early is you don’t get the little sticker they give you that says “I Voted Today”, so here is my online version:
