A Day "OUT" of the Sun!!!!

I am sure you all know where this is.....yep! your right CHUCK E. CHEESE!!!! We decided to take the kids out on Tuesday for a little fun and pizza. Since we had spent so much time "in" the sun while camping, a little indoor activity sounded great!!! YUMMY!!! DINNER IS SERVED!!
Serena & Noah playing "together" for a change, but not to worry, it didn't end well. Serena won 3 out 3 games and Noah was mad :( ! But I have the pics to prove for a brief moment in time they actually did get along.
And another sister-brother moment caught on film!!!!
SOLO PLAY!!!

Even Daddy got into the fun and games!!!!
PRICELESS!!!!

SPLASHING AROUND!!!!
SERENA, DADDY AND NOAH
SERENA AND NANA.....I REALLY LIKE THIS PIC!!!

GARNER ANNUAL FAMILY CAMPING

EVERY YEAR FOR AT LEAST THE LAST FIVE YEARS THE CHAVEZ FAMILY MEETS FOR A LITTLE "R&R!"IN GARNER STATE PARK. THE FIRST YEAR I WAS SKEPTICAL BECAUSE IT RAINED AND NOAH CRIED THE ENTIRE FIRST NIGHT "DADA I WANT TO GO HOME TO MY BED." BUT FIVE YEARS LATER ITS REALLY A TRIP I LOOK FORWARD TO. WE EAT, SLEEP, SWIM AND EAT SOME MORE. THIS IS ONE FAMILY TRADITION I AM GLAD I MARRIED INTO!!! ON OUR WAY: THIS IS A STOP WE MAKE EVERY YEAR BEFOR GETTING TO GARNER. WE STOP IN HONDO, TEXAS TO STRETCH OUR LEGS AND BUY SOME SNACKS AND FILL UP ON GAS. I TOOK THIS PIC OF MY FATHER-IN-LAWS TRAILER BECAUSE ITS PRICELESS. ITS GOT EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO MAKE THE TRIP A SUCCESS: BIKES, BEDS, FOOD, TENTS.....YOU NAME WE TAKE IT!!!!
THIS WAS OUR VIEW AS WE DROVE TO OUR CAMPSITE ON THE GARNER STATE PARK GROUNDS. ISN'T IT BEAUTIFUL?

THIS TENT HAS SUCH A BACK STORY. TOM PURCHASED THIS TENT AT THE PAWN SHOP WHERE HE WORKS AND HE LOVES IT, HE THOUGHT IT WAS A REALLY GREAT BUY. AND FOR THE MOST PART IT IS, I FIT A QUEEN SIZE AIR MATTRESS, SUITCASES, AND A TWIN BED IN THERE AND I STILL HAVE ROOM. ITS THE SETTING UP THAT I JUST CAN NOT ADJUST TO. WE NORMALLY START SETTING IT UP BEFORE EVERYONE AND FINISH AT LEAST 20 MINUTES AFTER EVERYONE ELSE. WE HAVE TO ENLIST THE HELP OF ALL THE FAMILY AND TOM GETS MAD WITH EVERYONE WHO IS HELPING BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT HELPING CORRECTLY. IT HAS A MILLION POLES AND FIGURING THEM OUT IS A NIGHTMARE. BUT MY HONEY LOVES IT, SO HE REFUSES TO TRASH IT. I ALMOST TALKED HIM INTO THIS TIME AROUND. MAYBE NEXT YEAR!!!

Summer School!!!

As you all know I have been attending summer school this year, and it has not always been a joy. I was taking my second natural science earth history, with mr. steinburg. it was sooo boring, we talked about the geologic time scale, precambrian, cambrian, mesozoic, are you feeling my pain yet. it was a four hour class from 5:30 to 9:30 mon-thur, it was pure torture. well as boring as it was i succeeded and made a B in the class yeah for me! now it is on to another boring class pre algebra....this class is to prepare me for college algebra....then like i said before save the date cause i will be recieving my associates in december....i can't wait the light at the end of the tunnel is brighter then ever now.

RANDOM PICS

I REALLY LOVE THIS PICTURE OF NOAH! HE LOOKS LIKE HE HAS BEEN SKATING FOR EVER, WHEN REALLY JUST A FEW MINUTES! HE ALSO HAS THE BEST SMILE!
I HAD A REALLY AWESOME HALLOWEEN PARTY IN 2007 FOR THE KIDS AND THIER FRIENDS AND IT WAS SOOO MUCH FUN! SERENA WAS A DEVIL FAIRY AND I LOVE THIS PICK BECAUSE I THINK HER MAKE~UP IS SPECTACULAR AND I WAS HER PERSONAL MAKE~UP ARTIST. SHE LOOKS B-E-A-UTIFUL!

THIS IS OUR NEW DOG BELLA. IN THIS PICK SHE WAS JUST A BABY PUP, SHE IS NOW ABOUT 5 MONTHS OLD AND WE LOVE HER. SHE IS A GREAT NEW ADDITION TO OUR CLAN.
I PUT IN THIS PIC OF ME AND MY MOMMA BECAUSE IT WAS SO PRETTY! I NEVER BELIEVED IT WHEN PEOPLE SAID I LOOKED LIKE MY MOTHER, BUT THE PROOF IS IN THE PIC! DO YOU SEE THE RESEMBLANCE! AND I WAS HAVING A GREAT HAIR DAY AS WELL!

School...blah! blah! blah!

Spring session is finally over I did it, YEAH FOR ME! I had a really tuff time this semester it was a major adjustment for me, and I made through! Although I must say there were lots of tears shed, and I have to admit that I did doubt myself a lot this semester. But not to worry. Its done and over with....till summer session I!!!
This picture above was my brain during finals. I studied so hard for my finals. I was staying up till two or three and going to work at seven in the morning. And after finals my brain felt like mush. I had two actual finals where I had to sit down and do a multiple choice type test. I had to write two papers, and two oral presentations. Do you feel my pain yet?
After my last final I treated myself to a pedicure, I felt like I deserved it and since I had neglected my little feet all semester it was time to "treat my feet"! So I did and it was great!
This is my thought of relaxation and that is just what I am going to do for the next fourteen days that I have off from school. And yes if you are wondering "I PASSED" all my classes! And a little FYI: I will be GRADUATING from Del Mar with my associates in December, so save the date!
