Goodness, gracious, great balls of fire!

Just wanted to let everyone know that even though we were basically "circled" about by fire, we are all safe. We have 3 fires directly to the west of us that are about 5-10 minutes away... Castaic, Magic Mountain, and Stevenson's Ranch. To the North about 10 minutes away, there are fires burning down San Francisito Road and Seco Canyon. Then to the East of us, the huge Canyon Country fire (about 20 minutes) is still going strong. It's pretty crazy, but we are o.k. Wish we could say the same for San Diego, it is REALLY bad down there. We have a lot of family there, but luckily they are all safe. (As far as we know). Dave's cousin did have to evacuate their home, we hope they are doing well, and their home is safe too.

Whoa...momma!

I just ran about 8 miles! I actually was suppose to run 9, but Brittani had a babysitting gig and I ran out of time because Dave was working and I had to get home. Aaaahh, too bad. Well, I better not slack off because Julie and I have decided to run the LA Marathon in March. (Dawn, are you in?) Can you believe it? And I thought I was crazy for trying to run 13.5 miles in November, and now I've decided to run another 26 miles in March. What am I thinking, I'm not the bionic women...or am I?

I had to post the picture of the most comfortable running shoes on earth!

Happy B-day Miss Hayli

For Hayli's birthday we took her to see the musical "Wicked" at the Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles! It was amazing. She loved it, and so did all of the kids... and adults too!

For dinner we went to the famous "Pink's" hotdog stand in L.A. It's very famous for its long lines and celebrity sightings! It's inexpensive and a good "dog" at that.

It's official!

Baby #1 is on the way for Chris and Kristen!
The due date is April 23, 2008.

Okay, so they don't sing that song, but my kids and I did get to see the Foo Fighters making a music video at our mall last week. It was fun to see, even though they were filming a part where they didn't sing at all. Oh well, not like I am THAT hip anyway, to be able to sing along! During the summer, we got to see the filming of the Visa commercial where they are in a food court and a lady holds up the line with cash. Hey, are we at the mall a lot? Nah, they just must film at our mall a lot, right?
