This was a short week at work but hands down the toughest. I stayed up until 2am for a week straight working on data files for outreach. I finally finished it last night. 

On Wednesday I got my half sleeve on my right arm and im super happy with it.  

We left before 9pm on Thursday night and made it in to Buena Vista around 130pm on Friday.  

Since being here the kids connected with their cousin and experienced their first drive in, watching the live action Moana. 

Dan and I have gone a little excursions together and enjoying each other's company.  We have 1 more week here and we plan to soak it all in.

This week has been a whirlwind. We came from spending a week in oceanside. Work was been crazy non stop with data items. 

Hannah decided she's trying out for tennis so she starts clinics on Monday. Its gonna be a busy month.

This was a busy week for work.  There's a lot of pressure.  Im going to tackle some of it this week. 

From a home perspective we got a ton of junk hauled from both houses.  We came up to the  O house on Wednesday night and planning to stay until Wednesday.  

We took the Coaster to the SD County fair on Friday to check out Tyler's clock. He got 2nd place which is super duper cool.  The shuttle was total crap which really sucked. 

We did a lot to shopping on the 4th and caught our first sunset of the summer. 

On Sunday we did some recon on where we could spend beach days.  We took the kids to their first Joe's Crab shack meal. Tyler tried crab for the first time.    We ended the day with another a sunset.

So this week was a whirlwind. I went to Reno for a few days.  It was super productive and I was able to begin building some relationships with the NV Team which is super exciting. Its still quite busy and I don't see it getting any better any time soon. 

The kids are doing ok for being on summer break. They've been getting some time in with their friends.  

We've beem getting the oside house set. We are almost there. We need to tackle the kitchen and figure out where to put things so it flows nicely. 

Oh and Tyler went to a card show without me. He bought me a Froakie full art card which im so excited about because I'm trying to build a master set for all the sets.  

In a couple weeks we are heading to Colorado. I'm also getting a new tattoo on Wednesday before we head out.

This was such a tough week without Sophie around the house.  I really miss her. 

One of the biggest things that happened this week was Tyler getting his wisdom teeth removed on Thursday. 

Today we celebrate Fathers day too.  Dan and I took a walk down to the beach then came back and got some good relaxing in.

Work life was rough this week. I worked until 2am on Saturday morning to get things documented for work. 

Hannah graduated on Wednesday from the 8th grade. She got a golden award and outstanding student too.  She did her last leadership event at Disneyland on Friday. 

Tyler hung out with friends on Friday and Saturday. 

I spent almost all day with Sophie on Saturday knowing we were putting her down on Sunday at 1030am. 

I miss my girl so much and hope shes running free after she crossed the rainbow bridge. She was absolutely the best dog ever.

Work is beyond crazy right now and no relief insight. Im confirmed to go to Reno at the end of the month for a few days 

Tyler closed out sophomore year.  He accomplished so much this year.  He took his first AP exam, got his driver's permit and gained confidence in himself.

Hannah is almost done with school.  She went on her 8th grade Disney trip and had a blast.  

We spent 2 nights in Oceanside this weekend and got a lot done.  Couches were built, dining table built, Dan's desk and my desk are built. Its slowly coming together.  I few more trips and a dozen more boxes to go before we are fully moved in and able to relax  

Sophie did a lot better this trip up too.
