Girl Scout Troop #33923 Sleepover!

01.16.16

I went back and forth a million times trying to figure out if I should let you do your first sleepover with your troop. It was the night before the Shoreline tournament in Mountain View and it was supposed to rain. Daddy finally made the decision to just let you go and have fun. I'm glad you went because you did really well the next day. You were tied for 1st place through 1-8 holes!  One lousy triple bogey got you 2nd but we couldn't be more proud of you!  Glad you got to do the sleepover and win 2nd at the tournament. You're a rock star!

PenPep Day 2016

For PenPep day the girls got to eat corned beef hash for breakfast. I tried to get black ramen but Safeway didn't have any in stock. You guys were still really happy to get corned beef hash. We played a quick round at the MIF and then he dinner with auntie Kristin's family. We ended the night watching the new Peanuts movie in our bed. Since you didn't get to pick dinner we'll let you pick dinner tomorrow!

Happy new year 2016

1.1.16

We accidentally let the girls stay up to midnight to ring in the new year. We went over to the Furuichi-Fongs and kept missing the count downs so we just stayed until it was our real count down. 2016 should be an interesting year. My main concern is finding a new permanent home for us and saying good bye to the best house I've ever known. I know we are in good hands and have faith that we will find something perfect for us. Here's to a new exciting year!

Pepper's first sleepover!

12.29.2015

Pepper has waited patiently to turn 7 so she can finally sleep over at a friend's house. Tonight she and Penny went to sleepover at Maya and Sophie's (Ryan and Nicole were there too). I heard the youngsters didn't go to bed until midnight and the Unni's went to bed at 2!  Hope you had fun Pepper!

This what happens the next day when you go to bed late and wake up at 7!

RIP Biscuit

12.23.15

Today we lost our beloved pet hamster, Biscuit. It is a very sad day for us. Girls were crying. It was actually kinda nice having him around. Daddy especially took to him. We'll miss you Biscuit!  Hope you're having fun running around in hamster heaven.

Happy 7th birthday Pepper!

11.29.15

This year you decided you wanted a outdoor bike theme birthday party. We planned fun outdoor activities like relay races and obstacle courses. We provided fun bike beads for spokes and got to decorate helmets and bike license plates. Hope you had a fun birthday!  We love you Pepper!

First Day of School 2015-2016

8.31.15

Today was the first day of 1st and 5th grade, our 2nd year at Bay Farm Elementary.  Penny was so excited about starting school again she could barely get a hold of herself.  Penny was assigned to Miss Booth's class and initially she was a tiny bit disappointed (she was her 2nd choice), but she found out that Lauren was in the same class.  She soon learned that Miss Booth is really nice and loves her new class.  Pepper has Mrs Wilson, a mother of 4 kids who also attend Bay Farm school.  She seems really sweet and patient.  I'll be Room Parent for her this year and hope I have a good classroom!  Here's to a great new school year!  Penny I hope you enjoy your last year at Bay Farm.
