Ok were back and this time I promise!

Our 4th of July parade

My "All Star" boys!

My ALL STAR!!

In evening of fun-bath time!

It's been awhile yes I know and I apologize! It's funny, I think nobody is reading our blog and then come to find out people really are so I am going to try once again! It's been a few months so I thought I would catch you up on what's been happening in the "Cota" house! Lil Ed had a great 4th grade year and ended with once again making "honor roll". We are very excited for him to enter the 5th grade and hope he will continue on with his "honor roll" year again!

As for sports Eddie finished baseball with dad being the assistant coach. It was a great season and it ended with Lil Ed making "All Stars"! This was very exciting for us all but was alot of work keeping up with the practices and the games but our team ended up in 1st place-YUP 1st place BABY!

As for Diego he passed his one year anniversary of his Mastoditius scare and he was cleared in early July from his ENT that he can now take a shower and swim with no ear plugs because his holes have closed in both ears. This was very exciting for us all. He is a very busy bee and we enjoy his constant character and the new words he is learning each and everyday! We are all amazed how different each sibling can be because him and lil Ed are definitely day and night!As for Big Ed, he has been working and working hard! In what little spare time he has he is working in the yard or coaching but definitely keeping busy. A couple of weeks ago the boys got to go on their annual camping trip with a few good man to "Jack Ass Meadows" they had a great time and can't wait till next year. As for me just the same old thing holding on for the ride and working! One very fun thing for us all except Diego was we got to go see Journey at the Mid State Fair! It was a great day and an amazing concert! Can't ask for much more!

Please come back and check in as we have a new sport in our family. Lil Ed has decided to do football and this is the beginning of his first week. It has only been 3 days and he loves every minute of practice ( he doesn't get this from me). Actually, I don't think it's practice it's more like in extreme heavy duty workout for 2 hours! The things these boys have to do amazes me and and it's not even "hell week" - YIKES! Big Ed is has been asked to assistant coach so I'm excited to see what the season holds! Check back soon!

One more thing-for those of you that didn't know my sister was off duty for almost 2 years from a back injury that she got while on the job (it was a fight between her and a crazy woman). I am so proud to say she is back on the road and making up for lost time. I am so proud that she overcame her injury and never gave up. It makes me so happy to know she is doing what she does best, but for those of you in SLO watch out!
