There And Back Again

Tom has broken his leg.  While his mother and I, were out enjoying the Cancun sun, He took it upon himself to ride his dirt bike and fell. Without a Helmet, I might add (i’m so pissed off). He promised me he would NEVER do that! He broke it in 2 places, above the ankle and below the kneecap. He is so lucky he didnt hurt himself any worse. I told his parents it was time to sell that damn bike, I knew something like this would happen. Kids are kids and boys will be boys etc.  He has a cast all the way to his waist. And he will be off his feet and in rehab most of the spring into summer! There goes any fun plans we might of had.  He has a lot of work to do before Our vacation to The UK this august. I hope he learns a very important lesson from this..  Max

Back home from Cancun. Shelly and I, had a wonderful time. Cancun is beautiful. the waves and the sun make for a perfect combination. the weather was perfect, it rained once, and at night. We stayed at  The Great Parnassus, an all inclusive, which was my first time with that. I enjoyed all inclusive, no worries about money. How Nice..Originally I thought 5 days wasn’t enough, but actually it was a just long enough. We had plenty of activities, and plenty of food and drink. And of course plenty of sun. Michelle didn’t listen to my wisdom and she got sun poisoning. Her face and body became so swollen I suggested a Doctors visit!. She refused, but bought allergy medication and it seemed to work. needless to say, she stayed out of the sun the rest of the vacation. But still had a nice time, so she tells me.  I read 3 books. That and the weather made me very happy.  The Hotel had a group of Entertainers that made everyone’s stay very enjoyable. The were in all the activities and then put on a cute show at night.  Shelly and I, are thinking about starting an annual trek to Cancun every February. Something to look forward to, esp when we have these crazy Winters,,,,   Brian

Shelly and I are off to Cancun for 5 days. Nobody better mention that we leave on VD. Its  just another day,, pics will be posted as soon as I take them,,,,,, I wanted to go to Cabo, but she wants Cancun and since she is the World to me, she got her way,,,, M

Hello There,,

  Ok this months trip is Orlando. The whole crew is going, Me , Michelle, Robbie. Timmy and Tommy.  Just for 4 days, on Memorial Weekend, but we are still excited. Its been a long time, since we’ve been down there.  Our first day, we are visiting with a friend , whom we’ve met in New Zealand, Vivian. She is sooo excited, she claims she has prayed for this day, because she misses us. How nice. we miss her too.  Then the next 2 days, we are going to be at the 2 Universal Studios Theme Parks. I love them. Our last day is going to be at Seaworld. And then back home, actionpacked 4 days, but I know it will be fun. Pics will be posted soon… Namarie Max

The Twins,

Timothy and Thomas are both 12, about average hobbit height, (I’m sure they can tell us their exact ht, but off hand I don’t know it), above average students, (they must get A honor roll to go on this Voyage) , both of whom love baseball, skateboarding,Ping Pong, riding their bikes around town and playing video games. Thomas is now taking after me and learning to play the Piano, he is a quick learner, and Timmy is a beautiful Artiste, he is perfecting his sketching and drawing abilities. Both boys are kind and considerate (ask any who meet them)and very polite and respectful. I have asked them to jot down some ideas on several topics , so they can share their thoughts with everyone. They asked me what kind of topics. I suggested several. Why the want to go to NZ, who their favorite character was, why they love the movies/books (both are reading the Hobbit now), why i’m the greatest person in the world, hahaha kidding, and so in the ensuing months, between trips to get our passports, me working overtime, them doing extra credit at school etc etc, They will be posting their ideas, I think also its a good idea for me to write my thoughts on those related topics. For Now Namarie
