What were you doing 19 years ago today?

I always remember........Earthquake day!! I was driving home with some KFC for dinner for everyone and thought I drove over something since my car was rockin' all over theplace in a way it had never done before. Then I saw a man run out of his house in a towel and a lightpost broke and then light went over and was hanging. Pretty much figured out it was a BIG eathquake at this point. Restarted the car and drove the back streets home. Walked in and my dad was pretty much freaked out and the pool was sloshing HUGE amounts of water back and forth. We still had t.v. service at that point and watched until it went out. Then turned on the radio.

Clark called from work and was able to call out to Grandma T. in Lake Tahoe. She was happy to hear we were fine. My mom called from Eastridge which is a pretty scary place to be when the shaking starts. She was working at a jewlry store on the bottom level so they went into the safe!

We ended up losing power and phones not long after but we were able to eat some of the KFC that I had picked up on the way home!

My friend Rebecca was in Utah at the time and gave birth to her daughter 19 years ago today too! So Happy 19th Birthday to Brittney! It's hard to not remember her birthday every year.

Update on the Mexico travelers.....they arrived and are far away from the rest of the wedding guests. Who knows why they are in section 4 while everyone else is in section 3????Maybe someone who arrived first arranged it that way? They said the food is not great and even though it is all included there is only one place to eat each day. Yep, the place has 5 restaurants but only one is open at a time! Kinda flaky if you ask me!!! My mom said the drinks are watered down and since she is a rare drinker I 'm surprised she noticed. Clark said to switch to beer since you can't water that down! They will be home late Sunday night and I have strict instructions to keep Miss S awake and to bring her with me when I come to the airport! We made a little video on Grandma's flip camera because she asked me to take the movies off (that's my job as technical genius lol) before she went. Hopefully, she will actually use the camera and take some video!!! or maybe some pictures!

Miss Savannah update......went to the dr. today for her 3 year check up. No shots that were needed but man she was a trooper and let Nurse Kathy give her a flu shot in the arm. Just like a BIG GIRL! I promised a lollipop and ice cream and we stopped for both on the way home. She is 35 and a half pounds and 37 and 1/4 inches tall. Right in the middle for height and 3/4 for weight. Just about perfect in every way like Mary Poppins! We are good until the 4 year visit and hope to not have to go see the dr. again this year.

Kyle update.......He made the wrestling team!!! He is number one in his weight class (heavy weight) Very proud of himself since he beat out 2 8th graders for the spot. Sad that his friend Seby did not make the team! First meet is October 28th so told him he needs to keep his grades up and homework done. He is in his terrible messy room right now looking for his missing house key! No t.v. or video games til it is found so true motivation is at work in there!

I know I am behind on posting pictures of the Party from last week but we had a killer weekend and I have been awful busy this week! I will try and post soon! We have a busy day of art class, soccer, and scary stuff at the Pumpkin Patch with the Taylors tomorrow night.

TTFN!! Have a great weekend!
