Disneyland Trip
I know I haven't posted for a while so here ya go....
The first week in May my family went to Disneyland. We took our car that carried Ray, me and my mom, and Jennifer's car had my dad, Kaitlynn, Jen and DeWayne. We stopped in Las Vegas on the way there and stayed at Circus Circus, which is a good place to stay if you have kids or don't gamble. We went to the "Circus" there where Kaitlynn played some carnival type games and won 2 flowers!
We got to California with no "major" problems. Jennifer's car was having some stalling issues so we had to call on our favorite mechanic Uncle Bill. He had it fixed and ready to go in a few days! We stayed at our timeshare which is only 1/2 mile from the entrance to Disneyland.
Disneyland was great. Kaitlynn had a lot of fun seeing all the characters, by the end of the three days she was pretty good at getting them to notice her. She was even able to see the Princesses (which is quite the accomplishment). We spent three days between Disneyland and California Adventure which is the perfect amount of time in my opinion. We were able to let Kaitlynn do all the "kiddie" stuff and have fun with her without feeling like we were waisting our time and missing the good rides. Ray and I have been to Disneyland more recently then the rest of the family so we were kind of the leaders and everyone was asking us where to go next and what would be fun. Our last day at Disneyland Aunt Paula and Jake met me and Ray there and we went on some rides with them. By the 3rd day Ray and I were pretty wore out but Jake kept us going with his energy. That night we went to dinner with Bill, Paula and Jake. It was great to see them and catch up a little. The guys and I also went to an Angels game while we were there (but Ray still hasn't had his caramel corn).
On our way home we stayed in Las Vegas at our timeshare there and had fun swimming, Ray was even able to get his "In-n-Out" fix. We all made it home safe and sound and spent the next few weeks editing the video that Jen and DeWayne took on their video camera. It turned out pretty good if I do say so myself.
DeWayne told Kaitlynn that she had to wait until she is 10-years-old to go to Disneyland again, but my dad said he is not going until he has another grandkid that is 5... so we'll see.

Moe's Dirtheadz
I joined a city leauge softball team and we are the Dirtheadz sponsored by Moe's Bar in Orem. My sister plays pool at Moe's and the softball team needed more girls on it so they asked me if I wanted to play. Our first game was last friday and I was picked to be the catcher. It was a lot of fun but we realized our team is not verry good. We lost 4-20. We had a practice wednesday and played friday, I think we improved. Jennifer and I both got on base this time, (we never made it to home plate) we lost 4-17. The owner of the bar was surprised at how dramatically we lost our first game and my sister Jennifer said, "well Moe, what do you expect when you get a bunch of drunks together to play softball?". I think as the weeks go on we will get better and even if we don't its fun to play and have something to do with my family while Ray is working.

Hope for change? Yes We Can!!!
Yeah! Ray has a new job!
I am now the assistant manager at Costa Vida, which is much better than that lousy Costa Muerte! My former boss worked hard to find another Ray so the transition would be as easy as possible on the apples (the new guy is really named Ray too). I start training at Costa Vida on Monday morning. This job will also facilitate going to school at UVU which I've felt is something i need to do. Now there's some change we can believe in.
On another front, we now have two blog entries so everything's coming up roses for us!

Starting a Blog
I love looking at peoples blogs. That's what I do when its a slow day at the office. It has been pretty slow lately so instead of just looking at other blogs, I decided to create one myself. So here it is. Don't expect much from it because I don't anticipate being a regular blogger but who knows I might surprise myself.
