The week came to a crashing end!!

Ok so my week completely and totally started off horrible and came to a crashing end...Seriously.

so Sat we come home for our trip to the aquarium...which released the Great White Shark and never updated their website but anyways, we came home to our carpet being completely wet from a leak in the upstairs unit. So finally that night someone cames and changes the pad and cleans the carpet and leaves big fans to make sure it drys all the way. We leave the fans on as well as open the windows and its dry. then over a couple of days it starts to stink like mold or mildew or wetness or something, do you think they have come to look at it? NO not yet and its quite annoying!!

Then we recieved some news on Monday that Jason Grampa had passed away, so of course our household was a little somber, and unfortunatly we were unable to make the services but our thoughts and prayers are with his family right now.

To end of our week this morning Jason left to go to work and was back in 5 minutes because some guy crashed into our car in the middle of the night. What a great surprise to wake up to and a great way to end our week. Thank god the guy left his info and the truck will be replaced at no cost to us, but I have things happing next week, my friend is coming up for a visit, I have some career thing I have to go to and a drive to San Diego. I am hoping the car situation works out and Jason will be able to get around.

So far this year has been a bad one for my family, personally, emotionally, and finacially. I am just hoping things will start looking up soon. I have lost my Grandfather, and my Grandmother at the beginning of the year and from that point it seems a gloomy cloud has been over us. Everytime the sun starts to shine the grey cloud come back. Oh well I guess thats what life is all about and it is Fall.

Enjoy your weekend. We are in for a wet one. (at least in the bay area)

Pictures of the Aquarium





Great White Shark...or Not


Ok so we get SO excited to see the Great White Shark at the Monterey Bay Aquarium...and they had already released it. Of course we were all bummed because that was the main reason we went this weekend, but we moved on and enjoyed the aquarium. It is such an awesome aquarium to go see. If anyone is ever in the area go. We saw somethings we've never seen before, and we are passholders to Seaworld!
We were able to see Giant Octopus', Jellyfish, Hammerhead Sharks, and even a giant freaky looking Sunfish. The kids had a great time, we enjoyed a new beach community, and Beautiful weather. You can't ask for much more. However we are all still bummed about the Great White Shark :(

My sister came by for an hour or so yesterday, it was so great to see a friendly face from home. Its comforting to know that my family is doing well and we will try to see each other every chance we get. 1 more week and we will have more friendly faces to see, and 2 more weeks we will be in SD for a little bit. I can't wait.

Until the next time, Take care and enjoy some of the pics of the aquarium

So Far in Foster City

Ok...So we've been here for a month now. Its an ok town, theres water everywhere you look which is nice to see, But the people here are so rude. Its like a town buildt for people who hate kids or have no time in their carrer orrianted life to care about kids. It is so frusterating walking in Target and being sideswiped, or run down because you and your kids aren't walking fast enough for them to get to where they need to go. I understand that life is stressful and busy, but really your gonna get frusterated at a mom taking her time, so her kids can look at Halloween Costumes. Its not that serious I promise you. Take some time to enjoy the little life pleasures. Its well worth it. Some people have been kind, but not most. Oh well!

So we are heading off to go see the Monterey Bay Aquarium tomorrow. They have a Great White Shark on Display for only the 4th time in its history and the boys are so excited to go see the shark. My Kids are all for Ocean animals. So this is a big deal for them and something they definatly will be talking about for a while. Actually they have been talking about all week. I will post pictures when we get back.

Take care for now, and keep checking back here for our New Adventures.
