Rancho Cucamonga Fire Dept Open House

So a couple of weeks ago we went to the fire dept. open house. They had a horse, some dogs, a real fire demonstration, and lots of fire trucks. One of their favorite things was going on the helicopter rescue contraption (don't know what that is called). The guy swung them around as if they were really being hoisted up by a helicopter and then lowered them real fast to the ground. The kids had a blast and were happy to have seen their good friends Kaitlyn and Matthew there.

Student of the Month

Juliana was student of the month for September. We were so proud of her. She has been doing such a great job at school. As some of you know she hasn't been the easiest child but it's nice to see that at least she is good in school. Just kidding she actually has grown up a lot and has mellowed out some. She is a really big helper and such a great reader.

Life Changing Book

I just finished reading this book for our Book Club. It was one of the saddest books I have ever read and even considered not finishing it because my heart just could not take it. I ended up finishing the book anyway and I am so glad that I did. I am so grateful for all that I have been blessed with. I am grateful for a loving husband and three beautiful healthy children. I am also grateful to live in a country where I enjoy such simple liberties such as the ability to go outside, buying food for my family, and for being considered an equal with men. This book was life changing and a huge eye opener.
