Another Weekend Already??

Wow! I can't believe a whole week has passed since I last wrote! The weeks just go by so fast right now. The kids are on a school countdown. 10 days left. Landon has only 8. I can't believe it's almost summer!

This is going to be a busy summer for us. Chris will be going out in a few weeks to start work on our house in San Jose. We finally made the decision to put it on the market. It's just getting too hard to manage it from 2000 miles away, not to mention we could really use the $$ since we're still not taking a salary from the store. Soon, but we're holding off as long as possible! We will also be going down to So. Cal. with the kids to visit family. The kids can't wait!

So, last night we met the neighbor who lives behind us in the alley. He has lived in this city for most of his life, except his time as an "outdoor entertainment operator" (i.e. carney). He's quite a character! Nice man, though. He had so much history about this little city. Oh, and he says there are secret tunnels in our house from one room to another! He said he used to play in them when he was a kid! We asked if he was talking about the old laundry shoot or the hidden room in the basement but he said there are actual pathways through the upstairs rooms that he used to crawl through. He said, "like those you read about in books". So now we're on a mission to find them...without letting the kids know! Can you imagine!

On that note...I'm off!
