Slow blogging week..





This is what happens when Mark travels for work.  I just try to keep the brats pre-occupied because they tend to have a sixth sense when it comes to their dad and when he leaves/returns.  I give so much credit to Single parents.  Being with these things 24/7...sheesh!  Mark didn't believe me until he happened to be on the phone a few times and like clock work, even when he's just at the office working late, they go BERSERK-O when he's supposed to be home and he's not.  It probably doesn't help that their fun (aka Their Ong-y and Ba-y) leaves right before their dad comes home either.


Anyways, with Chu Steven's help, we made it down to Santa Cruz for the Farmer's Market and a trip to see the Nina (replica of what Columbus sailed on in search of the New World) on wednesday afternoon.  Maddie had learned about Christopher Columbus and the ships, so it was fun and exciting for her just to see it.  I have to admit, there's something always so exhilarating when it comes to the ocean and ships...and being near the waves and sea life.

and of course, what's a ship without a pirate?!  guess it was after hours...
