Football season is over and I can truly say that I am going to miss watching these guys play every Friday. What a great team we had this year - these boys are such great friends. (The rest of pics are posted in the photo album).

Good job, Grizzlies!

Kayaking - July 25, 2010

This turned out to be our last active weekend before school starts. We spent the day kayaking at Castaic Lake with our neighbors, Cathy and Jamie Conlin. Sadly, Brandon could not get in the water because of his open wounds, but he was a trooper and joined us anyway.

This is a photo of Brandon after he took on a mountain. He flew over the handlebars and down the mountain about 40 feet. The pebbles are still slowly coming out of his palms - almost three weeks later. Most of the road rash is gone, but he still has a few patches and playing football again is not helping them heal. Eeuuw!

Me and Jamie

Brian and Cathy

If you look closely, you can see some of that road rash on Brandon's arm.

Brian Graduates

Brian graduated from 6th grade on Friday, June 11th. We are very proud of him. He received a President's Education Award and medal for Outstanding Academic Excellence, signed by President Obama (he pulled a 4.0) and he also received an Oustanding Citizenship award.

After the graduation ceremony, we celebrated with a potluck picnic at the park, hosted by us, the Campos' and the Green's, followed by s'mores back at the house. The kids had a great time playing basketball, football and swimming. It was a perfect day - perfect weather, good food and great friends.
