... ourselves that even if we were inclined to try to make them true it could never happen. "How could I ever...?" instead of "What can I do to make this happen?" We forget that the reason those dreams are so beautiful and powerful is that they were created by a mind and heart that knew no bounds or limits or rules. The reason that we regret not doing something is because reason disables us from thinking beyond our bounds. Older people always talk ...

... after Louisiana but haven't gotten too much further than that. I do know that we'll probably be making 2 stops in Texas (Dallas and then Midland where we'll be able to stay with Chrystal) and then back to Lake Elsinore. I know we'll be needing to make a stop or 2 in between Texas and Cali I'm just not sure where yet.<br><br>So that's it so far. I hope you continue to check up on our blog once our road trip starts! We should be posting often. Thanks for all your support! =D<br><br>-Sunny <br>

I had made many a trips to Big Bear during the snowboarding season being that it is really the only place you can do a day trip from Vegas. However a few times we got the luxury of having a place to crash for the night. Only Teresa and I would somehow manage to be able to make a crash pad out of Oscar de la Hoyas Big Bear cabin and training compound. The two of us and usually 15 or so of the worlds best fighters under one roof..... we consider ourselves very lucky ladies :)

... we left vegas and drove our tired asses all the way to california. the last three nights i have had nightmares about being on a cliff's edge and falling off. i hope that ends tonight. joe took his film to the local target to get developed and put on cds. we are all excited to see what he captured! we will have to send a package of pictures to Vitamin Water and hope they use us in their next ad campaign. you can ...

... in was full starting today, and we're staying around for another two to three weeks so that Greg can help out his old boss at his old place of work. It seems that both the guy who replaced Greg when he retired, and his immediate boss have been quite ill, and there were a lot of things to be done, but not enough people to get them done. When we were at Mike and Chris' house on New Year's Eve Eve (no, that's not a typo!) Mike asked Greg if he'd ...

After a few more days of swatting flies and dodging big puddles at our park in Menifee, we moved today back to the park in Redlands that we lived in the last 5 months we were working, and last December, too. It feels a lot like coming home, when the folks in the office know you by name, and the neighbors remember you from when you were here before, and we even ...

... party on December 16. For the sixth year in a row, John Kpewoan, the God's Kids Liberian National Director has invited close to 3,000 kids to his orphanage to celebrate Christmas in an all-day birthday bash. All of them are going to get a backpack stuffed with Christmas toys, school supplies, and hygiene items. Six of these kids will get a pack that was filled by students at Redlands Christian ...

... Ranch but to be fair it was too dark! :) We had about 2 1/2 hours between our plane landing and taking off again for San Fran - which we thought would be about right when you take into account the inevitable late arrival, the age it takes to walk from the plane to baggage retrieval, the wait for baggage and then checking in the back again and going through to the departure lounge.....in fact there was none of that....the whole process was so efficient and quick that we ended up actually ...
