Hello again

Good morning!
I know I've been away for a while now. So let me catch you up!
The kids had their last day of school down here. It was very emotional for them since they know that they will be moving away.
I also went to Las Vegas last weekend with my mom and cousins. It was a blast! Vegas is a crazy place.

Jono and I have been ridiculously busy as of late. we've both been working all week and then had full weekends that hardly leave time to get to the market much less cook. We've gone to visit with family up in Baywood, gone to a family birthday party in santa clarita, and changed bedrooms. Lets talk bedrooms for a minute.
For a while now as well as the last time we stayed there, we were staying in my mother-in law's guest room. and it was tiny. A true guest room meant for a single person. It was very cramped and we had to get rid of a lot of our things to fit. With all that has happened these past few months and the amount of support we have given Jono's mom we decided we should switch bedrooms with her. She had a big bedroom built for 2. It has a sliding glass door leading onto a patio with a hot tub and the backyard. She had not taken good care of any of it. It took all weekend to move and clean. The outcome is that now Jono and I have a larger room with space for us to move and a patio we can use. It makes such a difference. I have big plans for the yard and patio. I want to set it up so we can have dinner parties out there and not have to worry about being inside and getting interrupted. I want to get the hot tub working again since it has not been used in over 4 years. The room gets a lot more light that I realized and it is so nice.

But now to cooking. I have done very little cooking these past few weeks and I am trying to get back into it. I am going to start cooking with the kids more since I now have them all day. Not a lot is happening right now though since both twins have the stomach flu and have been sick since monday.

I think that's all for now. I'm sure I will think of more I want to tell you all later.
hope you all have a beautiful day!
