Happy Halloween from Irvine, CA
I haven't been up to much in the past few weeks, just really school. My roommates and I are being "Aces" for Halloween. We are each an ace of one suit. Jennifer is the Ace of Spades, Rachelle is the Ace of Diamonds, Kirsten is the Ace of Hearts, and I am the Ace of Clubs. Our main Halloween event was this past Friday. It was our CHP Halloween Dance. Since it was for the honors program we knew just about everyone there, which was really nice.

West Coast Update
Lots to update since it's been a while for me.
I went to Greece with my family which was a lot of fun. I started work (computer security consultant in San Francisco) and just finished up my first client on Friday. When I'm not on a client I do research. Also I went to Mexico with my company for an employee appreciation trip.
Greece was GORGEOUS! The views were just amazing and I had a lot of fun. It was also nice to just have that much time with my family again. We went to Athens, Naxos, Paros, and Santarini (3 days each). My dad has put up some of the pictures here.
In Mexico I played a lot of pool volleyball with my coworkers (even had my CEO spike the ball in my face, and then I did it right back). I also went sailing with my boss and out to a salsa club one night (which was a ton of fun). It was just a really good way to get comfortable with my coworkers and superiors.
Glad to hear everyone is doing well. Best of luck at the pedro party, I'm bummed I can't make it.

Friendship
I really enjoy the blogs, written and photographic. Thanks for participating!
Lately I've been thinking often about friendships. Everyone needs a few good friends. Maintaining friendships is work and takes frequent attention by e-mail, phone, cards,visits, surprises. Some friends are in our life briefly, while we need them during a difficult time in their life or ours. Other friends are childhood friends, high school friends, college friends etc. and some of them are long time friends through the ups and downs of life. Friends are different than family but both are needed.
I had lunch today with a group of friends I see once a month or less. One woman recently moved back to East Lansing after 30 years or so living in another state. Conversation flowed like we had seen each other yesterday. It was fun. When I see friends after many year's absence in no time at all I remember why I liked them and chose them for a friend in the first place.
I pray that each of you will be blessed with a few good friends along life's path.
Love and Hugs, Grandma/Mother

Herb Update
So Herb has been working t his new job for about 3 months and loves it. He was working second shift which was an adjustment for all of us. But we ended up getting into a routine and one part of our routine was to go in and wake Daddy up at noon so he could get ready for work. Here is Mckenna trying her hardest to wake Daddy. Thankfully Herb just got put on 1st shift so Mckenna doesn't have to try to get him to get ready for the day !
Baby Einstein Is The BEST!
Here is Mckenna enjoying her 1 hr of tv time watching her educiational Baby Einstein DVD called Baby Monet. Everyday she is growing and learning how to do new things.
