Yup the girls are off to South Dakota, I dropped them off at Auntie Dani's this morning. They were planning on leaving this afternoon, brave women. There is going to be 6 wild animals I mean kids on this RV all the way to SD, which is a good distance away from here.
I wish you luck Dani, and thank you so much for delivering my girls to Lala.
Hopefully I can join everyone next year.
Ashton insisted that I take a picture of the ducky family.
It is always a late night, here Jack is up at 11pm, right before we went to bed.
Lyssa has made it past some hard times, and I am so proud of her.
But on a happy note, Jack has officially learned how to act like the cup is a ba-ba.
Something I am so grateful for is my Dad coming and helping when we need his talent for fixing things.
Papa is always right there when you need him to help, "here can you hold this screaming baby", "ok sure" with a smile on his face.
My Dad LOVES to teach people new things, especially the kids. Ashton is totally into it, he gets SO excited when we are going to see Papa Wayne, what can I learn today.
My Dad is never selfish, he always shares, even when it is his birthday.
This day we were at the after bay (lake) , and he had just finished making the kids tether ball. He was so excited about it he brought it out onto the shore, I know. I would have just said they can wait till we get home, but he is always ok with putting extra effort into something to make them happy.
This is one of my favorites, I was preggers with Jack and the girls were at school and for some reason I needed him to watch Ashton. So he did, and he called the night before to tell me what to dress Ashton like, so they could be twins, camo cargo pants and cream shirts. How cute is that?
I wasn't around this day, but Grandma and Papa took the girls to there cheer leading while I went to a baby shower (Donna's ) with Jack. And let me tell you, those things were a lot of work, hot long days. Here is when Ashton was getting a little tired and bored maybe, and Dad took him to a baseball field near by to "teach him the game". He ran or walked around the bases with him telling him how a game plays out.
Now now, I told Mrs. Cindy I was going to put this on the blog and she still made a silly face.
Then a poop stop in Vacaville. Note, shouldn't the bathrooms be clean at 10 am in the morning, gross!!
Back on the road to see this. I swear this little boy was going to fall off the back of this bike. He wasn't holding on and he was squirming all around. I wasn't going to ride behind them for sure.
Once we hit Vallejo the traffic started.
We were walking down the hill to the race just in time to see the Blue Angels. I love the air shows, I feel like a kid watching in amazement.
All the sexy Dad's wear leopard backpacks right?
Daniel and Jeff Gorden's car.
Daniel and the devil's car, I mean Shell's car.
Us doing some people watching, one of my favorite past times.
Aww, so glad I went with the comfy shoe, no pain the next day.
This guy had gas, hahaha.
Me and the Kellogg's car, I liked it better when Kyle Busch was the driver, but not anymore.
Our cute Daddy.
Jeff Gorden and his little girl.
I'm always amazed how many people came out to the races, this is just one corner.
I want to say thank you to Uncle Eric, Papa Wayne and Grandma Lisa for keeping the kids for the day. Thanks a bunch you guys.
Jack wasn't interested in the presents, but Ashton was, for all he knew it was his birthday.
Teresa with something stuck to her face, love you girl, I told you I was putting it on the blog :)
Daniel (Teresa's boy) came to me and said, "when do you think we would be able to do the water balloons?". I told him in a few minutes, and I totally forgot about them, so sorry buddy. Uncle Eric took care of them, he threw them all at Kirsten and Kelsey. That wasn't all I forgot, I didn't get to play pin the nose on Elmo either, darn it. Oh well.
Baby Jack had a great day, and was so sleepy he took a snooze in the jump house. Thank you to everyone that was able to make it and driving far for most of you.
