Sunday December 17, 2006 We are here in Bakersfield. We left Lake Havasu on Friday and it was suppose to be 77 degrees that day. Now we are in Bakersfield and while driving back from Simi Valley last night over the grapevine it was snowing. We don't do snow, once off the grapevine it was just cold and rainy, Oh, was Havasu and the sunshine when you need it. Ha Ha
Yesterday, Dave, Kim and I drove down to Simi to visit the place where it was pretty much decided already where the wedding and reception will be for Kim and Danny. Danny didn't come down with us because he drove down Friday night and is staying at his parents for the weekend while he is helping his family redo his mom's kitchen. Kathy and Javier, Danny's parents, are remodeling the whole kitchen. New cabinets, counter tops and flooring. Danny is there to help tile the kitchen floor. He did such a good job in the Bakersfield house with his brother in law, Fernando, that he gets to do it again at his parents house. Anyway, at
3 pm we all met at the golf course where the big day will be. There was Kim, Danny, Dave, David Jr, Jodi, Riley and me all talking to Barbara, the wedding coordinator there, and we believe the place will work for us. So we put an "UN REFUNDABLE" deposit down so there's no backing out now. The place is set and the date is set, Simi Valley, Lost Hills Country Club, August 18, 2007, mark your calendars. Tomorrow Kim and I will go and pick out and pick up the wedding dress. Kim has basically already picked it out she just wants me to see it and pay for it. It looks like Dave is never going to get to retire again. Kim even had the nerve to say to me that I might have to get a job again, NOT if I can help it. Come next August, maybe even July, Kim and Danny have to start making all of the payments that are related too the Bakersfield house since Kim will be out of school and we no longer have to support her. We'll show her, who has to get another job, we will just refinance the Bakersfield house to pay for everything, that way the two of them will have to make the higher house payment, ha ha.
