Friday, May 6, 2011. Surprise, Surprise California just found 11 billion dollars in funds. As soon as they convinced teachers, firemen, police and the general public that there was no money and if Meg Whittman gets elected there will be no more pensions, your salary will be cut, and you will lose your benefits so you better vote for Jerry Brown. It work JB, and now they find this lost money. JB is our Hero! California will be saved by JB. And the public will buy another lie.

Another Old Lady Birthday Celebration. What fun. Pattie turns #@*. Bobbie flew out from Austin for the week, left her dog with Jennifer. Jen just loves that dog with her whole heart! NOT!

Slower pace every year, we are now all three tucked in our beds and sound asleep by 10 p.m. We party down by watching travel logs and the cooking channel.

Absolutely beautiful weather for March, sunny and warm, view of the snow covered mountains, cool breeze. Spent one whole day touring the wineries in Temecula. They have grown into being a real tourist attraction, great restaurants, unique gift shops, spectacular gardens and wine tasting all together in one stop. We must have visited 8 or 9 wineries without ever tasting any wine.

Toured Calvary Chapel Murrieta Conference Center, spectacular place, a beautiful mixture of the old and the new. They kept the old buildings and restored them to their original condition and added new dorms for the students. Hot springs, fountains, pool and hot tub. Luxury and Love. Filled with the love of the Lord, you just feel it when you drive through heavily guarded gates.

Last night together, Temecula Merc Theater presents, Andrew Loyd Webber tribute. Music from Phantom, Sunset Strip, and many more, amazing talent!

Sister bonding at its best.

New Years in Texas 2011

Camp Honescko! All of us were together in Texas for the New Year.





Cook, eat and play games for one week.

Andrew, Dylan and Jake gave us a scooter show on New Years Eve, jumping through the air at high speeds on new scooters they got for Christmas. Johnny, Jake, Andrew and Dylan headed out to Allen to visit the skate board park. That place is crazy, a hundred skaters all going in different directions at the same time and no one collided. Andrew and Dad built a model car together and Andrew built a Lego building made for 15 year olds, all by himself.

Mr. Cool got a 1963 Ford Fairlane in mint condition for his birthday last November. He will get his license in 5 weeks, watch out Frisco here he comes. He is "Stylen".

Ellie taught Hannah and Scout the art of eye makeup and Joe spent time in the kitchen with his assistant chefs; Dylan, Andrew and Jake--Papa bonding time.

Also had time with the "Real Housewives of Frisco Texas"; Toni, Alyssa, Gina and Annette. Visited Dallas and saw the place where JFK was assassinated, that day is forever etched in my mind. Went to the Dallas Farmers Market and Lulu's thrift shop. Dallas is a beautiful city.

A family vacation at it's best.
