Our Weekend

 So instead of getting a week off and going to Bear Lake, I got a three day weekend so we made a trip to Ojai.  (Not as good but was a fun substitute) We checked into a Bed and Breakfast; it was called the Lavander Inn.
 We walked around downtown and checked out the stores and shops;
 sat around in the garden and rested.
 Then Mom had read or heard about this bike bath that runs around town and all the way to the Ventura Pier.
 So we spent a couple of  hours riding around and trying it out.
 And more riding.
 Then we took a drive up the hill to the top of the valley; if you look you can find four different levels of the same road.
 Then we stopped by the Ventura Pier.  (No, we hauled the bikes; we did not ride the whole 15 miles.)
 Check out these stacked rocks; was kind of interesting.
And last but not least, we watched the wind surfers. It was a grear weekend; don't think I have ever ridden a bike that much.

 Oh, yes!  We found out that Peyton has arrived to join our family!!  Yeah!

Day Off


So I finally had a day off.  Jeff and Kylie came by and we all went to the beach.  Nik wanted to take the shovel (Not sure why; he never touched it.) but my old farm days kicked in and I dug a post hole. The kids after awhile tried it out.
Then Jeff dug a couple more.


I dug some more, even dug between them so they could go in one hole and out a different one. Even made one Tori's size.  Some of the group even enjoyed watching the waves.  At the end we had a hole for each kid and as soon as we could get them all in, the adults went home.

Our New Roof


 So this week we had a couple of guys totally strip three layers of shigles off the roof and then put on all new shingles.  This is the bare roof.
Here's the new one.  We'll spare you the mess in between.  (Still think we should have done it as a family but mom didn't want me on the roof.)  It looks great and was the best choice.

Where did the weeks go?

 It was surprising to see that 6 weeks have past since the last post, but here's a little catch up of those weeks. I transformed my new toy to a new coller
 There was Jeff's and Kylles wedding and reception that all the family was here except for Sujn which we missed a lot, but was nice to have everyone else here for a while. I know not the best picture sorry.
 Hours of decorating ( which none was by me )

 Michael's blessing, then a fast trip to Utah for a second reception, where we were able to visit with some old friends and meet Kylie's family.
 Then some of us stayed in Logan ( done a drive thru at Wendy's for late night treat then attended the Beck reunion.
Then found that our old computer died so we got a new one and finally got set up.  It has been a very busy and fast 6 weeks but was so good to see and visit with everyone.
