Sept,28 update


Hello!

Chrissy is still down in Seattle getting Tajanna all organized. Tajanna starts her classes on the following Monday at 7:30 am. I guess she lives only 10 minutes away by bus so the comute will be easy.

Makaiaya and I went for dinner at a Japanese restaurant called Nishi's! It where we ususlly go for Japanese. Sorry no pictures!

Makaiya is going to a Birthday party tomorrow at the YMCA. It is a indoor pool party.

Also there is snow in the hills! Yes, I hope the snow is even better than last year for the early season camp at Sun Peaks! I hope you are all able to prepare your muscles for the upcoming season. Make high goals for yourselves. What ever you dare to dream. Then do the effort to back it up!

Bye for now!

Oh Boy! Sorry it has been a while since my last update!!!

My life has been kind of stressful! I have had to do my normal work, organize Tajanna for school, organize my items for digging our sewer line. I am so happy this past week is over. Oh Yeah, And my nieces birthday was yesterday and we had a big family dinner. The same day as my sewer dig. The dig went well. No big problems. And I did still make dinner!

Bye for now.

Sept, 15 Update

Hello!

I forgot to tell you about my Monday soccer game. I scored a goal and set up the other 2 goals. Yes, it was a fun game for me. I did hurt my knee a little so I think I will rest it this Monday. The next game is our last league game. The play offs are after that. The next game does not mean much so it is a good chance to rest.

So my excavator operator could not work this weekend. I will have to do my sewer connection next weekend. I hope the weather is like this weekend. 30 degrees C!

Bye for now!

Sept, 13, Update


Hello,

Sorry it has been a while since my last update. Things here in Kelowna and in the Ito family are very busy these days.

First we are trying to get Tajanna organized for College. Finding a safe place to live in Seattle, getting her student loan worked out and so on. Also our house I am going to hook my waste water to the city sewer system. A friend of mine has a small excavator. I am going to do the project with him. I will let you know how it goes. I will do it starting on Saturday. Lots of planning has had to be done for that too.

So a little skiing talk. I hope you have been working on your physical strength a little this summer. A point we are going to focus on is keeping our head, shoulders, and chest forward when we are skiing. For this we need a strong stomach and back. If you watch TV , do sit ups and back work then. You can also hold a downhill crouching position for 2 minutes while watching TV.

Bye for now!

Do IT!

Hello,

So last weekend we went up to Big White. My mom is living up there. There was a car show that we checked out and they also had a Elvis imitator. It was a fun afternoon.

Makaiya and I also hiked up a small creek bed. It was fun a good training for balance.

Bye for now.

Hi !

So In Canada this was the first day of school for most kids! It was Makaiya's first day of Grade 1! She was a little nervous, but I know she will have no problem making friends! She wanted to celebrate and go out for dinner. Yes, we did go out to a restaurant called Montanna's. Steak and ribs! Yes, we ate too much!

Bye for now!

Good Morning!

So this morning I played 9 holes of golf and ate breakfast for $30! I was by myself and no one else was around so I hit 2 balls. I ended up shooting 80 for the combined 2 balls. Best score of the year!

I have some new clubs. A Ping G5 Driver( which I bought on e Bay for $125, and Cleveland Halo hybrids a 3 and4 iron replacement, again on e Bay, for $ 160 for both)

More news later!
