Camping at Leo Carillo





We went camping with the Hayden's this weekend.  There was tons of climbing, biking, boogie boarding, scooter riding, sand castle making, swimming, body surfing, and s'more eating all weekend long.  We found hermit crabs in the tide pools and we warned Dave of the evil sea urchin lurking next to one rock so he would not relive the same traumatic experience from Cancun.  Luckily we all avoided stepping on one this trip.  The kids were filthy all weekend long and loved every minute of it.  Maybe one day we will figure out what type of animal was lurking around the camp site around 2:00 am.  Oh, and a big thanks to Nathalie for saving me from the hornet in the donut bag this morning!

Detective Hewitt


I am excited to announce that Craig has finally taken a detective spot! He was officially promoted this week and will be moving to Mission Narcotics on Monday. I am sure the leave is bitter sweet, as he is leaving the Metro job he loves and leaving his partner of three years :( , but it is just time. Congratulations on the much deserved promotion, babe. I am so very proud of you.

Old Friends

I was blessed to reunite with two of my three best friends from junior high over the weekend. This is Lisa, me, Andy Panda Bear (which was one of my nicknames at that time), Carrie and Julie on a trip we took together after high school graduation. We have not all been together in about sixteen years. Lisa was unable to make the trip to California due to surgery, but it was great to visit with Carrie and Julie and have our kids play together.
The next pics are of us now. :)

4th of July






Thanks to everyone who came to the annual 4th of July party. It was fun as usual. What's with the baby boom this year? There were ten babies at the party. A little crazier with the fireworks too, thanks Mike. They definitely were not safe and sane. Luckily the house did not burn down or the brush near by. Margarita machine and taco bar were a big hit and the Simi fire works show was great. There was a power outage as the last party goers left at midnight. I hope you made it home in the dark ok, Ray and Jodi. See y'all next year.
