Summer Fun

We were so happy to see our Papa!! I think that was the hardest part, just being away from my favorite dad and our favorite papa. We had a make your own pizza and s'mores night. It was yummy. Eli wanted to sleep in the backyard and he did so for 3 nights!! And then the tent has been up a good 2 weeks after because we are too lazy to take down. On a happy note, Ella and Willow play barbies in there.

 

Wild Waters

I am so grateful at least 1 thing has been open this summer!!! We have had a wonderful time going with each other and friends. It's been calming and a great way to get some time out of the house because of COVID.

Also as a side note, sometimes I just write about things that are positive but on this trip we had a young man who was super rude to Maria and called her a bad name. She handled herself really well but I was ready to kill the kid. We never found him, but he would have gotten a good talking to.

Life is wonderful. Sometimes there are yucky things we have to deal with. It helps to have friends you can count on. I know Maria had a great time with her friends even though this happened. She loved going down slides with them!

Hot August Nights... More windy than hot!

You win some, you lose some. Happy 4th!!! We won!!!

Randomly I was in the car with the kiddos and it was time to call in for tickets on the radio station. Could we win 4 free ride passes to the fair?
Chances were slim.

Yet we won!!! We were thrilled!! It was so exciting.

We had lunch in Carson with Papa, Manny, and Josh.

So yummy! Papa is always so kind to treat us to good food!

The kids were hungry and ate EVERY single bite!!

Next we picked up our FREE $120 worth of ride bands and enjoyed the heat! Well, the heat was actually brutal, but we enjoyed the rides and Carson finery!!

The kiddos were thrilled to be able to ride all they wanted to! We stayed a good 2 1/2 hours.

Eli HATES roller coasters. It's hilarious.

Ahhh... big brothers.

Ew. People are so gross. No thanks on all the confederate flag bullshit we saw.

House of horrors? A bit!! Still not as scary as some of the people we saw at the fair.

 

We ended with some yummy yogurt beach. We got to ride in Yaiya's beast. Soooooo smooth and relaxing.

We binge watched Stranger Things and called it a good day!!
Happy 4th of July!!!
