Gugu's Chuck-E-Cheese Party

My Gugu turned 4! I can't believe it. We had his party at Chuck-E-Cheese and everyone that showed up had a blast. Brent and I would like to thank everyone who made our son's birthday a special day.

Parent Appreciation

I'm not sure if I ever posted these (guess I could track back but that's too much work). The boys day care had Parent/Teacher night in August. We went and Gugu showed us around his "office." He was so proud that he had both of us there. It was very cute.

Busy at Work

Sorry I haven't posted in forever. I've been so busy with work. Working in the technology field, you have to stay ahead of the curve and in order to do that you have to study and study some more. I've gotten pretty good with CSS, getting better with Javascript and well, basic HTML is a given as a web designer. But just because I feel comfortable with CSS or Javascript doesn't mean I stop practicing.

I've recently attended a code camp here in the Valley. I took a couple of courses that dealt with Adobe AIR. Adobe AIR works along side Adobe Flex (which is in version 3 beta). I'm telling ya'll right now, if you haven't heard of Flex and AIR you sure will. The markup language for Flex is something called mxml, so here I go and have to learn this form of xml (which is always a good thing to do anyways) and Action Script 3 (similar to Javascript).

I recently come to the conclusion that I will not be able to learn everything I wanted in this lifetime. Guess, I have to put off learning Chinese.

Crystal's Wedding

We had a blast at Crystal's wedding.

Bucket boy

Jackie being silly. Bucket boy.

Baseball with Dad

On Sunday, Brent and I went to the the Dbacks-Cubs game. Brent was really excited about going. At 7 am he came into our bedroom and asked "Time to go to the baseball game?" But at the top of the 4th inning, he was ready to go. We did get to enjoy some ice cream before we left though (he wanted the ice cream in a mini Cubs helmet instead of a Dbacks helmet because it was "blue"). Hopefully when he is older we will be able to stay the whole game.

Nubia added a scan of our tickets on the picture above, turned out pretty cool.

Backyard Fun

This morning we went to the mall to get Brent some things. When we got home, Jack and I took a nap, I wasn't feeling so good. Once everyone woke up, we played with the boys in the backyard. Big Brent tried out his new grass catcher and the boys played with some of his tools. Gugu was saying he was "Handy Manny" - that's a cartoon by the way.
