Welcome back and happy Tuesday! Aside from Father's Day we had a slower weekend where I could catch up on things including this blog. Last week the really hot days mixed with nice days continued but the delta breeze in the afternoon that blows through our neighborhood helps a lot plus the pool is warm enough to use now and a refreshing retreat. Otherwise all is good here as June continues to zoom by.
Take a look at last week's pictures:
Day 162- Monday, 6/10/24
Today was one of those cooler days so Justin was able to help put together some new patio furniture to go out by the pool. The old set was literally crumbling to pieces from years of sun exposure. Thanks Justin! It all looks great and will come in handy for our BBQ party in a couple weeks.
Day 163- Tuesday, 6/11/24
Time for an afternoon snuggle with a napping pup. We're matching today. Also I think she is finally done losing her baby teeth and we did find a few more of those she lost. The smallest is the only molar we found but I know for sure she lost more and probably swallowed them.
Our latest new blooms out front are here just in time for July. They always remind me of fireworks the way they are shaped and jet up above the rest of the plants. In other news, since Brandon is spending the summer in LA, he was able to attend his girlfriend's high school graduation. Congrats to Dominique! She'll be going to college at Cal Poly Pomona just 20 min north of Brandon's school so that will be nice for them. He also finally has all his paper work done for starting his new job on campus and will have his first working day next week.
Day 165- Thursday, 6/13/24
Yikes! Traffic today was insane. First, trying to get home from Davis, there was a crash on the causeway that delayed me for about an hour (not really that unusual these days) and then once I got into my town there was a road closure due to a fire that routed all these big semi-trucks through our residential streets and cost me another 1/2 hour. We never see traffic like this on these roads and they aren't built for this kind of traffic either. John actually got stuck in this mess too just coming back from a simple errand not far away. Thankfully the rest of our afternoon/evening was all good. After dinner we finished this Netflix limited series that kept us guessing about how it would all end.
Day 166- Friday, 6/14/24
Cheers to the weekend! John made up some nice cool tropical drinks complete with umbrellas that we enjoyed while watching Arthur the King on Prime. What a great movie based on a true story that had a good ending but also had me shedding a few tears.
Day 167- Saturday, 6/15/24
Today was one of those nice days where we could be outside and John could grill for us. We had Korean short ribs with rice and a nice cool Asian salad.
Day 168- Sunday, 6/16/24
Happy Father's Day! Justin and I worked together to make John a waffle brunch and later Tyler came over to swim and make pizza with us. It was a great way to celebrate and thank their dad. Sadly we are missing Brandon but we should be seeing him for a visit end of next month.
That's it! Thanks for stopping by.
What a nice week! Stay cool!!
