  Level 21.... finaly!

  I just looked at my current level. I am finaly out of level 20 and am now in level 21!
  
  In other news our local town festival "The Grape Jamboree" is this weekend. We will probably do what we have done the past couple of years. We go to see the Sat. parade and put in our chance for the grand prize. Grand prize in past years used to be a Ford Ranger (Standard). The local Ford dealership is no longer selling new vehicals so is no longer donating trucks. So the last 2 or so years have been just a money amount. But I do get Sat. off because where I work is right down town and we can't get our trucks to our store, therefor no deliveries that day. So I get the day off for our town going purple.
  
  Our kids both got free passes to a local movie theater for 2 diferent movies for either last weekend or this weekend. We have plans of going to see Wallie on Sat. and Kung Fu Panda on Sun. Both look good and non of us have been to a theater in a long time. This should be a good weekend.
  
  I think that is about it for this one. Talk to everyone later.

  Death of a relative...

  I was considering not doing this blog, but I am doing it anyway....
  
  Today we buried my first uncle. He was 69. I myself was not all that close to him, but he was my fathers oldest brother and my godfather. He was in the navy so he got a military send off as well. So when they played taps I saw my father lose it for a little bit and it brought a tear to my eye as well. Rest in peace Uncle Dan....
  
  On another note, I did enjoy seeing relatives but there has got to be a better way to bring everyone together like that....
  
  Hope everyone else is doing well. Take care everyone and enjoy the time you have with your family.

  After birthday blog...

  I said that I would tell you how things went. So here it is...
  
  
  I was not exactly correct as to where we were going but it was similar (I thought we might have been going to Cedar Point, but the plan was to go to Pioneer Water Land (a local water park)). Unfortunately the money that my wife had set aside (in my top dresser drawer, which I didn't even know it was in there...) went missing. So we couldn't go. We have our suspicions as to who might have taken it, but we are not positive. I did unload my drawer and it did give me an excuse to organize it. But I did not find the missing money. All is well though. I enjoyed the day of just relaxing at home. The next day (Sun the 3rd), my parents were going to take us out to dinner at a local winery (no I didn't have any wine or beer... I hate the taste of it....). I though maybe I would see my grandfather and one of my aunts. When I got there it ended up being most of my relatives! It was great! After dinner we went to my parents for cake and ice cream. After we got done at my parents we went to the beach and swam. (Well.... not me. I just watched. I am not that fond of the beach. If I swim, I prefer pools.) Just as we were getting done with the beach, my wife and a friend of hers went off to get some ice cream from DQ. They got everybody something and me something a little different. In all the weekend was a great one. I really enjoyed it!
  
  Again... I am not sure what else to say, so I think I will end this one here. Talk to everyone later.
