Tomorrow the summer ride is over for my kids. They start back to school. My son starts high school, my daughter into 5th grade. They begin a week early since they go to Catholic School.

It just seemed like a short summer but who am I kidding?

We did a lot but now the fun begins for the Saldivar Clan. Academics are the important thing for our kids but they love sports as well. Joaquin is giving Freshman football at Antonian High school a try and Emmy is going out for the Volleyball team at Blessed Sacrament.

The good news is that “hopefully” both will be playing for the school teams. Actually, Joaquin is on the team but Emmy still has two more tryouts tomorrow and Tuesday.

This could mean our weekends will be free since CYO was mostly played on the weekends. Practices should also be held at the respective schools so that will help as well. I hope.

I’m strapping in — it’s gonna be a fast ride.

Oh and if you’re wondering about the cool school bus photos – it’s real. Found it on this webpage.

Better than shooting yourself in the head right?

Another interesting game found while I was surfing.

Party Roulette Water Balloon Game by ALLY on JANUARY 5, 2010 For once the prankster version of a device is more innocent than the actual version. Now you can own a party roulette version of Russian Roulette. Instead of holding a real gun to your head, you’ll be holding a plastic one with a massive water balloon attached to it. Then as it goes round and round again, the odds of you getting soaked become more and more likely. You can purchase the Party Roulette Water Balloon Game for $17.98 from the Prank Place.

Only $65 bucks for your “eye in the sky.” Hmmm…I could use this. Plus is look just too cool. Check out the video. I also posted the link below from the website I saw this on – I frequent the page daily.

Of course, they haven’t shown it crash to see how durable this thing is like but c’mon, it’s an AirHog. My son had one and we crashed it numerous times.
