Fires

We are ok. Hopefully the can get the fires under control soon. Please pray for Southern California.
We know friends that have been evacuated due to the fires. It's so scary.
I will keep you all updated.
Thank you for you prayers and concerns.

Guilty Pleasure

I love this drink from the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. I don't drink coffee, this drink is soooo good. Yum!

-I joined Facebook. I like it much better than myspace. I am having fun on it. Come look me up on Facebook and add me as your friend.

-I sent out the email for the photo contest. I had a lot of people say they were interested, but only a handful of people say they wanted to actually participate. If you would like to join it, let me know, I will send you the email.

Have a great day everyone!

Dreams

Some of you may know this about me.... I have dreamt of going to Australia for many, many years. I'm not really sure when it started but it hasnt' stopped. Anytime someone would mention they had been there, I was right there listening to all their wonderful stories. When I was in high school I had a few pen pals from Australia. I love to surrond myself with the country. After I graduated from High School I got a job at Outback Steakhouse because, well, it is themed Australian. I worked there for about 6 years. As I have gotten older, the "obsession" isn't as strong. I have added going to New Zealand on my list as well.
-I wanted to go there before I had children but that didn't happen. I am hoping that it will soon because I still really want to go!



For those of you that have been there, could you share with me some of your favorite things. Just so I can get jealous :)
No, really. I would love to know. The more information I have, the better my trip will be :)

Hugs to you all!

Last night my sister-in-law had a Grey's Anatomy Season Premier "get together". I had to bring my camera along :)
I did take lots more pics but I didn't get a picture of everyone there, so I didn't think it would be fair to post them without all that were attending int the picture. ( I hope that made sense)
Stacie made Pomergranite Martinis and we got food from El Portal. I also brought along cookie dough (courtesy of Brianna's recipe) and made cookies.
It was a nice time hanging out with everyone. Last season I think I watched a few episodes of Grey's. I was hooked. It seems like this season will be pretty good. I hope so.
Their kitties Xena and Roxy were also enjoying the evening.
-Tony recorded "The Office" and we watched that afterwards. I love that show. It is so funny. I just get so embarassed for Michael.
Enough about that.
Until next time.
Hugs :)

28

Today I was reminded of how incredibly blessed I am. I have so many wonderful friends and family members that love me.
I am so blessed!
Not only did I receive many email cards and phone calls today, I also received some wonderful gifts.
My husband planned such a wonderful day for me. It was all a surprise.
I am blessed.
-The biggest surprises today were two presents I received. I got some amazing gifts today, but I really wasn't expecting these two.
When I opened my new 5D, I literally cried. I couldn't believe that Mark got it for me. Yes, I might be a baby but I was touched.
Anyway, thank you everyone for making my birthday so special. I am truly blessed.
ps-I have the best husband in the whole wide world! I love you honey!





-In case you were wondering, Aiden will be subject to my testing of my new camera in the days to come :)
Hugs to you all

San Diego, Super Chargers!

Today was the season opener for the Chargers. They faced off against the Chicago Bears. What an intense game. The first half wasn't looking so good for the Chargers. Then they pulled through after half time to win the game 14-3.
Hopefully they will have a good season with their new head coach.
Aiden had somewhat of a good time. I finally posted some new pictures on his blog www.aidenkoehler.blogspot.com
I hope everyone had a great Sunday!

The heat and humidity is horrible here lately. We don't have air conditioning in our condo so it's been boderline unbearable.
I know it isn't as hot as Arizona ( I feel sorry for my friends there) but it's still mighty toasty.

Thank you to everyone that has been sending me such nice emails lately! You are all so wonderful to take the time to write me.
I have had a few people suggest some blog topics.
I will be blogging about those VERY soon!
There is lots going on around here and I will hopefully be able to share the happenings at mkp soon.
Thank you to all my patient clients, friends and family. You are all so wonderful!
Have a safe and happy weekend!
