Pruiksma Update

First off, married life has been absolutely wonderful! Ken and I are having lots of fun just doing normal ordinary things, like playing warcraft, rockband, scrabble, mounting surround sound speakers, and watching Planet Earth on Blue-Ray disc :) We got an amazing TV that Ken hooked up to a computer (you know, one of the extra ones that was just laying around) so we can browse the web and watch tv shows from online (not to mention a program that folds proteins at home to contribute to solving cancer! you'll have to ask Ken to explain that one more). He's brilliant.



Last weekend we went to Dallas and stayed with Lorisa and Michael. We had a wonderful time hanging out with them! They are just wonderful people! Michael is great! We even got to see him preach and it was wonderful- truly inspiring. We also made a stop by IKEA- that place is just crazy! Not to mention we were there over labor day weekend so it was extra crazy! We found some awesome office furniture, but unfortunately, when we got home we realized we forgot to pick up an integral piece. We got two desks but a frame for only one of the desks. Getting all the stuff home was a whole different story. We took my Honda Civic (instead of Ken's truck) because we wanted to save on gas and the back seats in my car can lay down, making lots of extra room. Also, we wouldn't have to worry about the weather if we took my car. As pictured below, this was not such a good idea :) The desks were fine lengthwise, but they were about a foot too wide to go into the trunk! So there we were, at the very front of the IKEA parking lot, trying to squeeze a huge box into a little bitty car. We got lots of funny looks.




Thanks to Ken's boy scout skills, and Michael's help lending us some rope, we managed to get our desks home! Thanks Michael!



Here are some pics from California













Whale watching- I didn't get a very good shot but you can see one in the distance. We spotted some humpback whales that were quite playful- they were waving their fins at us, slapping their fins against the water, and diving so their tails came up out of the water. One of them even jumped out of the water a couple of times. It was amazing!



Learning to sail!



The ABSOLUTE BEST hamburger Ken and I have ever had! We had one for dinner and had to go back the next day to get another while we still had the chance!

Ken's very fist visit to a laundry mat!

One day your prince will come....

Oh wait Kristi's finally did :) I am putting some photos from the wedding on the blog so the whole world can see them because no one else would. We had a fantastic time. Jace and Jan sure know how to throw a party!! Enjoy the photos. I figure they are pretty self explanatory. These photos were all taken by Sara House :)

Ready or Not.....

Here we come!!!

Attention Please

Attention everyone attention, the California Ensor's no longer have a home telephone. We don't need it so now we don't have it. Please erase the 951 phone number from your records and contact us on the 909 numbers.

Lonestar Weekend

Saturday night Jace and I took Nell and Rex Hartgraves to the track to see Lonestar. We had box seats. I recognized four songs that they sang. Nell and Rex were troopers. They would not have gone by themselves but because Jace asked them they went. We had a good time.

July 3 Jace and I went to the Inn of the Mountain Gods to see their fireworks. There were so many people there that we had to park a half mile from the Inn and walk up the mountain. I was amazed at how many people were there. The show was good. We had a good weekend!

See you in a week!!

Jan's Graduation Party

Saturday night we had a graduation party at Texas Club. We had two gowns, two caps, and two hoods. We shared them and had pictures taken. We ate and had cake. It was a lot of fun. I will miss getting to be with the group every month but I am glad that the work is finished. Now to finish my dossier and I will feel like it is over!
