FIRE!

Jason has had an exciting few days, being involved with the fire here in Moorpark. He had already been gone for 5 days when the fire broke out. They kept him another day. He came home for a mandatory 24 rest period this morning. Thankfully he lives close enough to come home, otherwise he would have to sleep on the fire truck or on a cot at the command center. Here is a pic the LA Times took of Jason and his crew in action. Jason is hard to see... he's behind the front guy in the red helmet. Jason is working the controls of the water pumps.

SkateLab

The boys have been begging me for months to take them to SkateLab. It's a large indoor skateboard park. We finally caved and Jason took them one day. They had a blast and now beg to go back! I just wish Jason had taken more pictures! What fun!

The three boys are in the far background of this shot... Ryan the one standing on the board coming down the ramp.

Cousins @ Farrell's

Growing up, Farrell's Ice Cream Parlour was a favorite place to go! Birthday parties were always the best at Farrell's! Unfortunately, Farrell's isn't around much anymore.
We were invited to attend my nephew's travelling hockey game in Valencia, and decided we wanted to spend time together afterward. Since neither of our families lived there, we couldn't go back to somebody's house. Then we remembered there was a Farrell's near by. It was fun to take our kids, and my older brother and I reminisced about fun times we had at Farrell's. Here are our kids enjoying the day!

Enjoying the traditions of Farrell's by sharing a large sundae. Yum!


Silly cousins!


Jayden actually blew this balloon til it popped! Everyone in the restaurant jumped! It was soooo funny!


The boys played a round of lazer tag.... they didn't have that back when I went to Farrell's!
