Look I'm doing it!

Well one more week gone and I've stayed true to my non committed commitment!  All please pause and acknowledge me.
An on that extremely pretentious note let me offer you some insight into our week. In an effort to establish continuity between last week and this Scott, Stirling Smith and I planned an early morning boating trip for the fellas to get at least one last ski in before the season expires.  With an early start and only three of us we all surfed and skied and Scott and I wake-boarded, all in roughly 3 hours. Not a bad way to start the week. Also of interest to my sniping nature I was delighted to spot a fair sized elk heard on the way to the lake, several deer at the lake and a nice young bull moose on the way home.

The following day I had a short one night work trip to San Diego and when required to sing "leaving on a Jet Plane" to James he decided that I in fact needed to take two of his race cars to "California" too.  He was so determined that I decided to make a big deal of it.

Ahhh a window seat

Ready for bed

 As James was thoroughly delighted with the first one I just kept it up. :)

Unfortunately for me I missed Will's game this week and the two goals he scored.  I was there for Lucy's game and the great effort she put in on a scorcher of a day.  She didn't score this week but did get a great stop at goalie and was generally doing a great job.

To finish off the week I was able to get together with a few of my old roomies from the single days at "Freekie Dee's" to reminisce and catch up.  It was a strange experience to revisit as it was 11 years ago that we would go there every Monday morning around or after 12:01 am.

The stalwarts!

Speaking of days past, I need to report on a recent celebration of the 10 year anniversary of our marriage and the adventure that Andrea and I embarked upon to commemorate the birthday of our little family. I think that my next entry will expound upon the journey and the joy.

What a Slacker!!

Do not judge excessively I am still sniffing diapers!  It is my expression of self in type that is witness to slackeresque tumble from the face of the earth. :) In case you hadn't noticed.

I make not resolute promises yet I feel to reengage myself in recording, on a relatively regular basis, the events of our little Denzer clan.

Don't you dare hope for too much because I'm bound to let you down in one way or another, but here starts an attempt at a new leaf of summarizing our life.  As the time has been vast since I last attended to the workings of this project I may do some reflecting as well as updating on current events, considering that I am thinking aloud (so to speak) we shall see.  With a very busy summer behind us there is much to recount but for this week we were delighted to launch the "Honey Badger" and play on the water for a few hours yesterday as the weather was obliging and the water only slightly unpleasant. :)

The Honey Badger still floats, 4 seasons in the books!

It did seem a bit crazy to be towing a boat through the changing fall colors in the mountains all the while trying to convince ourselves that the water would be fine.  It really wasn't all that bad, certainly worth the trip.

Also not to be forgotten is the ever present soccer that infiltrated three days of each week this season.  Both Lucy and Will are playing on teams that we really like and they are having fun.  It sure makes for a busy Saturday when we start with a soccer game and then go boating not to mention the lovely pack of exhausted kiddos locked in the rig for the hour plus ride home.

RUN LUCY!!! I feel like I yell that a lot at these events.

Long and happy days are these!
