Pirate birthday party

Tonight was a popcorn night.

We don't have a microwave, so I make it on the stove and

then shake the salt and butter on to the popcorn in a brown paper bag.

This is how my mom and dad did it!

Yum!My delivery boy!

Today I went to Steele Canyon Preschool (Through Grossmont College), where Benjamin had gone last year. I went and took pictures of the children. It is fun for me to have lot's of cute kids to use as subjects and good for them to have new pictures for their yearbook.

My boys extended Valentines day to Monday. They both went to the grocery store, bought sandwich stuff and laid out a picnic in our living room. Benjamin chose this rose for me. What a wonderful suprise.

Happy Valentines Day to my loves. We had a really nice walk down at the J Street Marina. There is a great path near the boats, a fun playground and an area to play in the sand.

Rain, Thunder and Hail

We finally had a REALLY rainy day. There was rain, there was thunder and there was hail. These thrings definitely mean there was a wet boy outside having fun.

It is now 10:45pm and we are still getting rain. I hoping that the rain and cold continues and that Gramma is getting lot's of snow in Big Bear. I really want to take Benjamin up there next week.

Before the rain started coming down, we tried to get out and go for a walk and scooter ride. It did not last long.

January 22nd - Magazine Stand

I had pulled this box out of the garage for the recycle can. Tonight Benjamin used it for a Magazine Stand. Note the prices on the front of the store. And yes, really money is necessary to (re) purchase the magazines.
