Hybrids, 3 Wood and Cuzco Jersey

Ah yes, how quickly we forget, I did buy 2 Hogan hybrids and Tommy Armour r7 3 wood for my birthday. Let me tell you, all of the clubs I purchased are super sweet. I am happy with every single one of my purchases.

Lisa did buy me a jersey for a club in Peru and I cannot wait to see it. Last year it was San Martin Football Club in Argentina. She must have been a good luck charm because they were promoted to the top division in Argentina while she was there. For a club the size of San Juan that must have been an unbelievable occasion. Lisa did have a few pictures of people driving around on motorcycles and going absolutely crazy in the city square so there you go.

Another Year Older

I am a day late writing in my blog just like my sister in law Patri who forgot to call until just a few minutes ago. Birthdays these days just seem to come and go. I cannot believe it is less than 2 months until Maia and Owen both turn 2. I guess time flies when you are having fun!

I did not really do much on my special day other than supervise an electrician who was installing ceiling fans in 2 bedrooms. I also was able to watch day 1 of Wimbledon. The one highlight was going to Kyoto, our favorite Sushi place, to eat some delectable raw fish! That place is so good I could eat there many times a week so I am glad Kyoto is not too convenient.

Doesn't that look good?

Owen's Lip

We had a funny Owen incident after I returned home from golf last night...

Owen is pushing his Pooh mobile around because, you know, he likes pushing it around versus actually riding it! Well anyway, he is going all over, going around the table, towards the dog and then he decides he is going to use the circle around the island as his race track. He is careening around the corner and he hits my left leg, rather hard I might add. I say to Owen in a very stern voice "Owen, no, do not hit people in the leg with your car!" He stands there, hands still on the back of the pooh car, perfectly still and his bottom lip jutting out about as far as it will go. 10 seconds go by, 20, 30... still standing, lip jutted out. His world has clearly taken a severe hit on this one.

Wendy starts to make the shhhh motion, while she is trying to not slice her hand off cutting some tomatoes, because we are both cracking up. I am laughing so hard and trying to perform this feat silently I feel like I am going to pass out. If you saw us both from the back all you would see is shoulders shaking like crazy because we cannot contain our laughter at Owen's expense.

At this point Owen decides he has done something very wrong and wants to make amends with his father. He waddles over taking very small steps, arms at his side and buries his head between my knees as his attempt for saying he is sorry. Of course at this point I pick him up and he gives me a big hug making sure that his world can continue in a normal fashion.
