Black Friday 2009

Armed with a beanie, scarf...blankey...pillow...hot cocoa....cereal...a book...and a chair (thanks mom!) Nessa set out just before 10 pm on Thanksgiving to be one of those crazies that stands in line all night at Best Buy hoping for one of the few $197.00 laptops!
Sometime just before 4 am, they handed out the lucky tickets....well...lucky for some people...but not our beloved Nessa...she just missed the mark. Now she can say she did it! (ps..Mom and Dad were all snuggled in their warm bed...smart ones we are!!)

It's ok sweetie...maybe Santa will bring you one....if you are good!!

Am I seriously doing this??

Yup...I'm set!

Soccer 2009

Soccer season is officially behind us. The AG AYSO Boys U-14 Team Mustangs had a great season. They had some awesome wins....some terrible losses....but over all it was a great season and they took 3rd place in the Finals! Bubba came out every game and gave it his all! (Even with only 2 hrs of sleep for one game!...ya...sleepovers!)

A Flapper...and A Mariachi dude turned King David....

Miss Nessa and her Co-Worker and new found pal, Chelsea were flappers this Halloween...

Miss Nessa hard at work...and loving her new job!


For Bubs....it was a case of multi personalities this Halloween...
Inspired by his fabulous Sombrero that he purchased in Mazatlan Mexico, a Mariachi dude was created. Mom found a suit (at a thrift store!) and sewed on some "accents"...and wala! Mariachi man. (Keep in mind....mom DOES NOT sew...so..this was PURE love!)
Only to find out that the "theme" of his youth group party was "Bible Characters" .....hmmm...was there ever a Mariachi band in the bible??? Almost was if it wasn't for the help of Harvest Church costume box! What was once a mere Wiseman costume for a live nativity set, soon became....King David!

Mr. Mariachi Dude visits Old Juan!

King David....and all his kinglyness.....

Nessa's New Job

After countless hours of filing out applications and
submitting resumes, Nessa finally landed herself a new job.

If you are ever in the Ocean area on a Friday or Saturday night, stop on by and Miss Nessa will get you a great seat! (She's the Hostess with the mostest!)

Congrats Nessa!!!

For the second year in a row, Comedian Brad Stine came to visit the central coast and perform a show to benefit Coastal Christian School. Last year the boys were gone hunting in Colorado so they missed it...but this year...Brandon was eager to see the man who could make him laugh!
