thursday - rocky, jacquee, nikki, tyler, ashley, anabelle, alex and i all went to exploration place for the riverfest. it had been a while since i went there last. so it was nice to see the kids having fun!























friday - i ventured to the riverfest. thinking i was going to join the block party. well. i took the kiddos with me so that they could hit up the kiddie rides and moonwalks. ashley wanted to do the bungie jump ride, we waited in line for almost 2 hours. and she ended up hurting herself on it. anabelle and alex were getting REALLY cranky by the end of the evening. i was READY to go bed!



saturday - my mother in law had family in town that she wanted us all to meet! cousin cindy and her mother. both lovely ladies! after that, i took the kids to a birthday party. noesami turned one!! yay!! we went to the park in valley center and had a big ol' celebration there. pinata...the works! THEN! after the birthday part i took the kids BACK to the riverfest for the grand finale fireworks. ran into some family there so we shared a good ol' spot on the douglas bridge! they were the best seats [minus falling fireworks that were a little hot]. alex wasnt too sure about em. his lil heart was a racin' and anabelle of course HATED them. she hates ANYTHING loud. she cant stand a toilet flushing. its bad!
