Even in the Cold....





It's Spring break here in (sometimes) sunny CA.  You know what that means right?  Warm weather.  Sunshine.  And swimming!  Well you have one right.  It was cold (for us CA types) checking in around 58 degrees.  It was cloudy.  Looking gloomy.  And these kids went swimming!  It was the 12/13 year old girls church class who were invited to go swimming.  The teacher told me I could bring Ryan and Emily if I wanted.

I did
And they happily came along and played
Despite the fact that they were freezing.

Be sure and come back tomorrow for my recap of DWTS!

Kids will do ANYTHING to go swimming. I bet my kids would swim when it's 40.

Our pool all summer long, it can be 100+ degrees and our pool only gets to about 70 which in water terms is freezing :)

Lourie! What is up with Cali this year? We have not broken 70 degrees and are stuck with fog, sprinkles, and gray skies! Ugh! Enough already!

Ohh how I miss swimming.
It's snowing right now so I think it'll still be awhile before we get swim weather.

I thought it was a fun night with the American theme. I am so sad that Petra was voted off. I thought she was really good and so sweet.

Yep, we went to the beach here in SC a couple weeks ago. It was probably about 60 and Punky was in the ocean. Then freezing when she got out!

Great pictures! Though I still think you are all insane, way too cold for me :)

Though that was about the temps that it was for Lucas swim lessons everyday last year.

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
