Off Roading / Shooting Trip with Curtis and Dad


Yesterday Dad and I went on a shooting and off-roading trip It was a lot of fun and I am very glad we did this. We drove up to Frazier Park and went to one of the areas of dirt at had a yummy lunch that Mom had packed for us. Mom was kind enough to watch Kenny dog for the day... more on that later.






After the lunch Dad and I proceeded to get both of our shoulders good and bruised by shooting a whole box of 135 clay pigeons. It took me a couple of tries to the throw right, so it was probably about 130. Neither of us
had done that for a while and it was every bit as fun as I remember. My shoulder is hating on me a bit today, but it is a great thing to see a little clay pigeon turn to dust. =)












After the shooting, Dad did a lot of 4-wheeling. It was not too crazy, but we bounced around a lot. There were a couple of areas I was freaked out a bit by, but Dad was laughing about how they were just a couple of little hills.









On the way out from the first trail, we came across a jack rabbit. It was too quick, so I did not get a picture of it. BUT! We did come across a herd of COWS! There were about 15 or so of them. Some were full grown cows and some calves! One of the calves charged the Jeep! Well, a cow charge is more of a wander, but it was pretty funny when Dad called it over and it started hobbling over.






We went over to another trail that Dad wanted to explore and we got a really great view of the area. You could see a couple of the ranches and the small market area. It was spectacular. After coming down off of the mountain. We had a nice long stop at Denny's for dinner and headed home.









When we arrived back at Mom and Dad's house, Mom and Kenny were great. Mom's first time watching Kenny was a great success! Kenny, as always gave us a very awesome welcoming party. It sounds like they both had a lot of fun on their walks up and down the street a couple of times. And how do I know Kenny had a good time?... Well, the next two pictures are Kenny today. =)

Roll Tide!


Big exciting news!!
We are moving to Alabama.

We will be probably live on the other side of Mobile Bay, either in Daphne or Spanish Fort.



We are very excited about our southern adventure, and hope that our family and friends will come visit.

Curtis turns 26

Curtis is 26 today, and so he has turned the corner towards 30...

Yesterday we went to Disneyland to celebrate, well, everything, and so Curtis of course had to wear a birthday hat...

We spent the morning with law school friends who came down to Long Beach for Brunch. Had an amazing view of the ocean.
Went shopping for his birthday gift (new headphones), and had his birthday dinner at CPK, where the server not only gave him a free birthday dessert, but also gave him free made-from-scratch focaccia bread, since they have recently taken it off the menu. I think he had a fun day :-).

Christine Graduated!

I will probably put more reflections on graduation on my personal blog (if I ever have time), but wanted to include a few family pics on the family blog to celebrate the day.




The whole family crew :-)
