Year 2000: The Five Fischers Whirlwind
If you're a regular reader of The Five Fischers, you know that eight months between updates is quite unusual. Has nothing been happening? In fact, just the opposite. So much that there's been little time left over for updating the online journal. But fear not! With this update we attempt to hit the highlights of the year to-date.
LORI & KIDS THROWN IN JAIL!
The Toon Town jail, that is. See the Pulitzer-candidate photo essay of our March trip to the Magic Kingdom. (Hey, there aren't any qualifications to be a Pulitzer candidate, are there?)
EASTER CELEBRATED IN STYLE!
One of our very favorite holidays of the year at The Five Fischers is Easter. See all the shenanigans and hijinks, plus find out why we like it so much in our Easter report.
JEFF & LORI'S SECOND HONEYMOON IN MAUI!
When you have a business conference (no kids allowed) in Kapalua, Maui, you don't miss the opportunity to make a memory (without the kids). You can read all about it and see photos from our trip (just the two of us) in April to Maui, Hawaii. (Did I mention we didn't take the kids?)
FOURTH OF JULY FAIR IN CHINO HILLS!
There's nothing like an old-fashioned Fourth of July picnic and fair. Chino Hills puts on an annual celebration with all the works. See Annie share her food with Joe! See Jamie and Joe drive a fire truck! See Mom squirt a fire hose! All this and more on our Fourth of July celebration page.
AND—INCREDIBLY—MUCH, MUCH MORE!
Way too much to make individual pages of, so here are the highlights of the rest of the year jammed together in one spot. See more of the front-yard circus! See Joe & Jamie's first day of "real" school! See Joe's first bike ride! Together for the first time in our rest-of-the-year report.
