BFF

Jolie just told me that I'm her "very best friend in the whole world." Awe!!

A Horse Of Course!

The girls went to our neighbor Tahani's birthday party and rode their horses. They had a great time!

Family Date Night

Joey and I took the girls to see Game Plan tonight...and I thought it was a cute movie! Of course I think Dwayne Johnson helped my view...lol. Being a kids movie though, I didn't care for (my kids to see) some of the movie previews that were shown beforehand. I'm not sure who picks those out...the theater or movie industry?

Gifted, Talented and Distracted...

That's the name they should give the program! Got a call yesterday from Bay's school saying that she'll be included in their gifted and talented program. She was in the program during her 3rd grade year as well. Anyway, ten minutes ago I got a call from her teacher about her distraction factor. While I'm used to this see saw ride, sometimes I have to grumble with honesty and say "it stinks." I'm very proud to have such a bright daughter who is so highly creative and imaginative...but I just wish that she wouldn't daydream and wander off during class. How interesting can that hairline scratch on her desk really be??? lol (at least I still have my sense of humor). And it's not just in class...it's at home during homework, etc, etc. So I'm constantly having to reinvent the wheel with her. Keeps me on my toes I guess :)

Left my heart in San Francisco

So cliche I know :) Lately, I've really been missing my life and friends in California. Not that I don't LOVE my family and friends here...but we'd really built a life in CA and darn it, I just wish I could have both! Seems like Fair Oaks and my friends keep popping into my dreams at night. Every dream that I wake up and remember has taken place in CA. I have a few hunches why this is happening :) I decided to write about this, because what I really wanted to do was pick up the phone and call Bonnie...but realized it's only 6:20am there and I'm sure she wouldn't appreciate that. I don't think she's had her coffee yet :) I hope to make it to CA in the Spring to visit.
