We took Alex to the Spring Fling, he had fun hunting for eggs but he didn’t really care for the scary Easter bunny. His friends Aidan and Cassidy also went, they had so much fun!
Yesterday we went to Halloween party for babies which was just down the street from our house. We walked because it was so close, but it was pouring rain, luckily we have big umbrellas. Alex, who was in his bear costume, fell asleep on the way there. It with a group of moms that Julie goes out to lunch with on Wednesdays. It was a lot of fun, and it was great for me to meet everyone.
We had an awesome weekend! Our friends Nicole and Justin who have a son, Aidan, that’s about the same age as Alex invited us to stay in their families houseboat on Don Pedro Lake. There were a whole bunch of people there who were all cool and very nice. The houseboat was amazing, we slept inside the first night and moved to the top deck the second night. The stars in the night sky were beautiful. It was so much fun.
We went camping at Morgan Hill Thousand Trails this weekend, it was Alex’s first camping trip! He was fine the first night. The second night he may have been too cold, he woke up in the middle of the night and it took us two hours to get him back to sleep. On Saturday we went to the beach, it was a lot of fun, I got to fly my new kite, and we ate at Duarte’s Tavern and Restaurant in Pescadero.
Today we went to Tim and Astridas wedding, they’re some great friends of ours from Oakland. They’re from New Jersey though, so of course their wedding was in New Jersey. We flew from Portland, Oregon to Newark, New Jersey with Alex, he did great. Their wedding was awesome! It was at The English Manor. We had such a good time. They had so much food it was unbelievable, and the food was great. We met a bunch of their friends and family who were all fun to hang out with.
Wow! What a busy weekend, last night we drove from Brittney’s graduation back to Vancouver, Washington. That was not fun at all, we drove across U.S. Route 12 in the middle of the night, we were both tired and there was a ton of wild animals running across the road. It took us 6 hours to get back since we had to drive rather slow most of the time to avoid hitting any of the wildlife.
Today was fun though! Two family reunions in a row. This time it was Julie’s sister, Kristi’s, birthday party and a time to meet Alex. People came from all over the country for this event as well. We went to Lewisville Park, it was beautiful, right on the river. We had tons of fun!
