Big Z and the Sharks

This hockey season ended this last Friday and Big Z's team came in 1st place. Mike was his coach again this season. They had 9 wins and 3 loses. This is Mike's 2nd season coaching and second time coming in 1st place. Who knew we had a hockey coach in the family. Big Z really loves playing and is so cute to watch.

It's all Good!

It's good to have old friends. Big Z has known "D" and "J" since they were born and have stayed friends. May their friendships last forever and be a place where they find laughter, fun, safety and encouragement.

There are not to many people these days who can stay they have long time friends. I know for me (Corina), I have some precious friends from grade school and high school that I still consider wonderful friends. Ones that I know would be there in a heartbeat if I needed them. So one of my wishes for Big Z is that he forms lasting friendships.

How about you? . Write me a comment to tell who your long time friends are and for how long.

Happy Father's Day to Mike

Happy Father's day to all the dads we know. This year Zeke has become a daddy's boy. He wants to dress like Mike, walk like him and be a carpenter like Mike. It's great to see them

together doing things they both enjoy. We are going motorcycle riding today to celebrate Father's Day.

To my own Dad- Happy Father's Day - you're the best!

Zeke' Graduation

Yesterday, Zeke graduated from Pre-K . They had a ceremony that you would see at a high school. He had a cap and gown which he immediately took off and tossed . They even got a yearbook- which when Zeke asked "what's a yearbook" kind of spoiled the fun.

I cant believe he's going to Kindergarten next September. He already told me he doesn't want to go , he would rather stay home with me.

Could be worst?

While walking down Main Street in Huntington Beach, we stopped in front of the statue of Duke. For those of you who might not know who Duke is, let me tell you.

Duke Kahanamoku, a genuine Hawaiian hero known as the father of surfing and the 1st Hawaiian to win a gold medal in swimming and a great person. He had a great big statue on Waikiki Beach and a smaller one here in Huntington. Most visitors stopped and take a some pictures and a few leave flowers.

So we stop to let Zeke climb on Duke for a while. Zeke tells Mike, " When I die , I want to be a statue, Daddy". How funny is that!
