Great weekend ! Blake and Sarah came down Saturday - we drove into Monterey, grabbed lunch at Peter B's with a pitcher of the homeade brew and relaxed in good company. Joshua of course stole the show by throwing his food on the floor and making noises. Around 10:30pm that night, Willi and Debbie crashed the party - and stopped over to hang out for a while...
Sunday morning was awesome. Willi invited all 4 of us over for brunch, darts, and DA BEARS football game. Brunch was more like a feast, and the bears lost the game. Golf soon followed at the Par 3 course in Salinas. Not one of our best games, but I won the award of "best putt of the year." Willi is also becoming fond of using the almighty driver - last week he beat me, this week it was a tie.
Tiff and I walked to Michaels, Target and Kohls on Monday. It's about 4 miles round trip. We all got some sun, Joshua was relaxin' in the stroller and we bought bread. Yes. Bread. We were going to head down to the beach later that evening, but we think Tiffany caught some sort of 24 hr. virus/cold something that causes a fever and makes you sleep. Fortunately, the fever broke last night and she's feeling better.
As for the economy. So much for the bailout bill.. I lost all faith in our governments ability to be fiscally responsible. I guess they think this is a joke, and would rather borrow/inflate our currency than hold people responsible for their actions. Unfortunately, inflation punishes those who save and encourages those in debt to spend more.
We received an email last week telling us how much more experience Sarah Palin had than Barack Obama.... Could you vote for this:
Click here for the Sarah Palin Interview ? It would be nice if the party system were abolished, but it would be even nicer if our voters went to the polls educated. So much for this beauty pageant. Tiffany and I watched the interview with Katie Couric and shook our heads in disbelief - keep in mind, we've always been die hard republicans, but not this year.
