Park of the week #5

While we were on our camping trip, we went to Eastview park next to the campground.
This park was perfect... is was just a short walk away and it had both a play ground and a splash ground.
The funniest thing about the park was Raven's little friend (a complete stranger).
He was pretty smitten with her and kept coming over to her and grabbing her hand to take her to the slides.
He even took off running after her when it was time for us to go.

We had so much fun at the park, and I would gladly go back if we are ever in the area.

Our weekend camping trip.

This weekend we went on a fun camping trip with the Cervantes, Prieto, Covarrubias and Prentice families.

We went to Sweetwater Summit campground in Bonita.
This was everyone's first time there and we had a great time.


The kids helped decorate cupcakes to celebrate Douggie's Birthday.



What a messy face and crazy hair camping girl!





Emma crashed hard after a fun afternoon with cousins.


After breakfast on Saturday we took a hike up to the top of the summit.
Anyssa was hilarious... " I can't believe we are climbing a mountain. This is the best day of my life, I love camping!"


This little girl played hard all weekend and she was exhausted!

Dave won the cleanest camper award.
He was constantly cleaning their tent.


Emma had her first s'more


We all had such a fun time on our camping weekend.


And we were all worn out when we got home this morning.

Dinner for Douggie

To celebrate Douggie's Birthday, we went to one of his favorite restaurants, Phil's BBQ.



What a yummy way to celebrate a birthday!
Happy 34th Birthday Douggie!

A play date with Jillian and Rachel

On Tuesday afternoon we went to Jillain's house for a play
date with the girls.
Rachel and her mama Heather came as well.

Our sweet hostess Jillian.

The girls had so much fun playing outside on the climber.



Emma said this was a pirate ship and I love that she is pretending to look out of a telescope.



We had a great time with the ladies.
Thanks to Jillian and Kristyn for hosting, and thanks to Rachel and Heather for picking up dinner.

A little celebration with family

This past Sunday we had a little Birthday get together with family.
We were celebrating my Aunt Caubbie's (Carmen) and my birthday.
Caubbie's birthday is the day before mine.

We all went to the neighborhood pool by Cris and Dave's house.




Emma decided to work on her tan.


After all of the pool fun, we headed over to Richard and Connie's house for a pizza party BBQ.
We made some yummy pizzas and Richard cooked them on the BBQ.


What a great way to celebrate our birthdays.
We all had so much fun and it made us really excited for our camping trip together this weekend.
