small update

So finding a massive amount of time on my hands due to the goverment picking me for jury duty and as a juror. I thought I would try to update this a smidge. The Goodman's have had a lot of various things happening be it sickness and or changes in our lives. We have been blessed nothing serious has happened , but we have been busy none the less. I hope you will forgive us for now

And now for the show.

So i wasn't feeling entirely great, but with the proper use of sugar and coffee ( and a hint of sleep) all is better.
This is going to be a more traditional photo dump as there is sooooo many pictures from the one dy i took the serious camera along.
Ok it wasn't that many, but still a decent amout

The Birthday stretch

Well what to say what to say.
The Goodman's went on vacation. To Disneyland none the less. They stayed in a very nice hotel.(thank you Grandma) They had a blast. Don't get me wrong having two ....no wait make that five young kids on their first trip to a major theme park that's got to be tough? The walking was a killer and Disneyland's inept planning when it comes to strollers and elevators that work that sucked. Heck even the long trip...that must have been tough. naw The kids enjoyed meeting all the princess's and the rides...oh man the rides. Those bring back the memories. Sure somethings changed right? well more r less Disneyland hasn't changed much at all. They have added a new park next door that has already had a major face lift, but again its the Disneyland that i have come to enjoy and i hope that my daughters come to enjoy later as well. Its the happiest place on earth. The weekend after that the kids got to do a lot of firsts. Claire got to bowl a little at a little bowling alley. They both got to go on a true roller coaster...ish for the first time and as Daryl calls it they got to see the ninja chefs at Bennihanna's which is a treat in to itself. There was several weekends of the Zoo and a real scorcher of a weekend were it got very warm(108-115 depending on the device) for a day and the rest of the weekend it cooled down (75-80). I have the photos on two different computers and will try and reedit this post with both sets of pictures.
Hope everyone has been well enough. and on with the pictures

So this is semi back. Daryl finally finished up a commission or at least got it to the point he can say here not mine anymore. Pictures to come. Things have been rather steady around here as we plan the Great Goodman Vacation, Bejeweled Bubbles takes off, Daryl starts a new job and tax time. I had this song which feeling wise summed up the (what ever month it was) the feeling of one of the months i was going to post. Its good enough ill still link it for all to hear it if you havent yet. As for information. I will get to that in a day or two. Hope you all have had a good almost half a year. The Goodmans

Update and pictures

So i finally am just going to do a update and its going to be dirty but i need to have some content up this month or im going to be mad.
So as most you know things have been a little busier than normal due to...well many of the faucets of the Goodman's life being bogged down with work.
We had some surgery, most of the family being sick for extended periods of time, Birthdays, a business opening on facebook (shudder) , the same business opening on its own website (yeah!!) www.bejeweledbubbles.com , Kristin making inroads with wholesale jewelery business both local and international, house work/upgrades and just day to day work. Im sure there was more also but without worrying about the details to much im going to forge ahead.
Also im going to post the pictures using photobucket just so i know that what ever happened before does happen again.
and here they are in to order


BUBBLEMOBILE!! The Bubbles The very same shirt Kristin and i wore on the "first" date All Aboard. Daryl's old conductor hat
