Okay, so I'm terrible!

My greatest friend ever, Zoe, is here with us at the house visiting for the day and throwing down the axe on my blogging inabilities. She has helped me set us a Flikr acct. to put my pics on easier & & is forcing me to post a blog. (What we do without friends?) The kids are playing wonderfully, loudly, yes, but very nicely in the background & we are enjoying laying around & catching up. I lover her to pieces & really don't know what I'd do without my long lost friend. Thanks for comin' to Tracy, Zo. I love being with you so much & your girls are the best friends for my kids!

CLICK HERE for our pics & I will try my hardest (with or without Zoe) to keep this updated.

Blog Vacation

I got this idea from Zoe, thanks girl! It's not like I keep up on posting anyway, but I have made a new policy so I don't overwhelm my free time with PC time, so I will check FaceBook & this Blog at the end of the month. I may post some pics if the boys do something super great, which is everyday, but you know what I mean;)! Bye!

New Hair

So, I never cut my hair, but when i do, I go to a stylist and say, "I up for whatever!" Well, that was a mistake. No only did I get a fresh out of Beauty school-20 something (I can say that since I am almost 30), but it was her last day & she was going postal on heads. I was the last cut of her last day & she was like, "Can I style it too? I won't charge you!" "Fine, do whatever, I really don't care & I have never had a really bad haircut, so what could happen" Well, this happened...it is a cross between a Jen Aniston Do from the 90's & a mullet. Do you remember Robbie's ex on "The Wedding Singer"? I can't remember her name, but that is who I think I look like. So, I guess I am a 80's rocker chic for Halloween.....by default. Careful what you ask for!

Gramma Jay's last visit for the summer

Mom made a trip down on the train for her last visit until Christmas since school starts for her (she teaches History for 4th & 5th & high schoolers). With her creativity & artistic ability & Jackson's love for order & jumping, she came up with an old favorite on the driveway, Hop Scotch. I had fun, too, playing with JT... he was better than I was, he really has that game down. We also took Gramma Jay to the Aquarium (we get free passes thru the local library) and we had a great time. Love you, Mom!

Keep them comin'.....

So a few more zoo & then dinner at the Jungle, this rad place for kids to play & eat, like 2 steps up from Chuckie Cheese, which I am sick of at this point. Problem: it is in San Jose, which is a solid hour drive for us, so we make the trip for special occasions. Have yet to take Tim there, but need too.

More of the Zoo

Jackson likes all of the interactive, the train, merry-go-round, etc. Jo just wants to run around and pretend to shoot things with a stick. Very different boys, thank you God for variety! I love them both, TONS!

I know, I promised pics.......

So, some from the SF Zoo with the Villasenors for Abel's b-day....Josiah liked the penguins the best. he is my swimmer boy, so it makes sense.
