Does It Look Like This At Your House?

Five days, yes this is what it looks like for 5 days. Last Friday there was "dry lightning" across the state of California. Hundreds of fires are burning, not by us. They say 800 fires across the state. The nearest one to us is Napa/Vacaville. They were canceling soccer practice for teens at Amador High today because of air quality. It's not a good idea to even go for a walk. Luckily, it hasn't been hot. Mt. Diablo from the Del Monte's backyard.

Graduation 2008

On Wednesday June 11th, 2008 Trevor graduated from Los Cerros Middle School. My sixth child to graduate middle school from Los Cerros! Trevor arrived at school on Thursday to only head off to Great America with his classmates to enjoy the last day of school before summer. Then on Friday the 13th of June Brad graduated from Monte Vista High School. He partied really hard all night long celebrating his graduation with his classmates on grad night. The Monte Vista Class of 2008 went to the U.S.S. Hornet where there were many activities and a hypnotist show! Brad got picked to get hypnotized but he was not able to be hypnotized, which he is very upset about. Then at 1 a.m. they got on a yacht and cruised the bay on which they danced the night away. He got back home at 6 a.m. and called me to pick him up! The PTA doesn't let the students drive home from grad night because of the fear that they might fall asleep at the wheel on the way home. So I crawled out of bed and picked him up. He had a great time and has said "it was one of the best nights of my life!". The above video is a video Alyssa created with some help from Brad. Congrats Grads!!!
