Betsy's Holiday Wishes

Miss Betsy wished everyone to have an eventful Fourth of July as long as she was allowed to have some fruits, veggies, a couple bottles of formula, and a stroll outside with her big sister Mary Jane.  Other than that, she just wished that the fireworks would go off before 10pm.

Rabbits Thump at Fireworks

More info later but bunnies, like dogs, cannot stand all this idiotic popping.

John Runs Slow 5k Time; Blames It on Long Shorts

Another Independence Day, another 5K run in the Palisades. For some reason Mister John has been doing that for quite a while. Whether or not he improves is up for debate. However this year he clocked in at a tad over 30 mintues which is a bit slow for him. Oh well... just because TV Turtle could run that with a crisp breeze means very little.

Pete and Lillian (as seen to the right) both ran the race as well. Pete, much like John, changed shirts as not to display his ID#. Oddly enough they had the same four digits but the second and third were transposed. Go figure.

Maybe next year John will bust out the short shorts circa 1985 John Stockton. But that would freak out his wife and his little girl... and possibly most of Mar Vista. Some legs are just not meant to be seen. Idolized, maybe, but never seen.

Happy Girl Swims on the Fourth



Mary Jane has a new profound love for swimming. After taking two classes in the past week, she swam like a fish out at her Aunt Lisa's this past week. Nevermind the 116 degree temperatures, Mary Jane was a swimming fiend! Nothing quite like a big smile as she kicked and splashed her way around the pool. Mommy and Daddy were quite happy as well.


Mary Jane begged to go swimming today so Mommy and Daddy decided to head over to the LMU pool and give her another chance. Oh, such a lovely splashing girl. Mommy swam with her everywhere; Daddy was working on his tan. It's a bit farmer-like so he needs to even it out.
