quickie...

Just a quick post with a few updates - I have a JILLION loads of laundry to do today... so I gotta get OFF of the computer...

Shanni was accepted to 4 UC schools for the Fall - UCLA, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Cruz (her sister's Alma Mater) and UC Santa Barbara (where her Boyfriend will attend). After much agonizing, she's chosen UCLA (my Dad's alma mater!). Hooray for her - the smarty pants! Everyone should have such hard choices!

In addition, my friend and co-worker Mayra (also known as my 3rd child), graduated from Nursing School! She already had her degree in Psychology from UCLA, but wanted to be a nurse (working the grocery store wasn't appealing????)... she's moving to Mississippi to be near her folks and work there or in Louisiana. She will be missed. :-(

On Wednesday, I was told that Shanni won a scholarship through the CGA (Calif. Grocers Assn.)!!! Hooray for her - we are so excited (everyone at work was excited for us as well!).

Dennis' men's softball team won their championship - yay Guys!

Lindsay and Dennis' co-ed team is in the middle of playoffs. They won their first game and have another on Wednesday. If they win that, they play a 2nd game on Wed for the championship!!

I think Matt may be playing in playoffs with another team he plays on as well! Today Matt is playing BASEBALL (not softball) in the Valley - Denn and Linds went to watch (I have TOO much laundry)... because...

my nephews Michael and Andre arrive later this week. Their Dad was just here prior to a motorcycle club event in Ventura (it was nice seeing him). Michael is a recent college graduate - with a degree in Architecture from Arizona State (YAY Michael!)... Andre I believe is going on for more school and baseball in Arkansas or Nebraska (I can't recall)... he's been at a junior college in Nebraska.

On Saturday, Dennis races in another (2) motorcycle races at the fairgrounds. Hopefully, the boys will be here to watch. He got 2nd in his last race - hopefully, he'll do well this time, as well.

Although my family is apparently a bunch of overachievers - I have nothing to report for me. I am however, a Professional Laundress... so I have to go... more updates later (for like the ONE person that reads them anyway...thank you Kathy!).

Have a good weekend all...
