EaRtHqUaKe!!!!

Okay - so here's the scoop: last night at 2040 california time, there was a 4.2 earthquake one mile north of lafayette, which is about 2 hours northeast of san francisco. we felt one of the three reported aftershocks but at the time we thought it was the kids running upstairs (we were over at liz's eating dinner and chatting). about 10 min after we commented on how loud they were upstairs, a bulletin flashed across the screen that told us about the earthquake. it was kinda creepy... but kinda cool:). so, that's the only major event happening here. stanford asked me to stay on at my present job, but i don't think-sorry- i KNOW i'm not going to stay on in my current job because I HATE IT. it's nice to have a break because it doesn't require a lot of brainwork, but i'm SO BORED. so, no news yet on where i'm going after this. i'll keep you posted. kate and i are getting really excited about seeing everyone at easter. em will be here in about 9 days and 2 weeks after she leaves, we go home!!! we have plans for the weekend to go out with some girlfriends from work on saturday and sunday. hope everyone has a fun weekend planned! love you guys, kate and jules

A Night on the Town . . .

Well - it was a short but fun weekend. Friday night kate and i ate pizza and hung out and i went out for beers with a couple of nurses from work. saturday, well - what DID we do saturday? oh yes, we cleaned ... and then we cleaned... oh yeah- and then we cleaned:) (we had quite a bit to do:) but saturday night! we went to a country bar in fremont, ca with a couple of other nurses from stanford and WE HAD SO MUCH FUN! I don't have any pictures yet but i will be sure to post them. there were REAL cowboys and they were riding the mechanical bull and it was amazing! they were really good! and they had a really great band there and we went with our neighbor liz and had a blast:) she's so much fun! today, M got her hair cut and her nails done:) kate and i had so much fun with her today- she's so little now! but just as beautiful as ever. i'm not sure, but i think she's been prancing about the apartment:) she really does think she's a person... oh! and she played with liz's cats harry and lloyd on thursday night but- i think she had more fun than they did:) ha ha Well, we hope everyone has a good week. love you guys, kate and jules
