Jam Packed Weekend...

So we had another crazy weekend. The fourth always ends up like this though, it comes with having a child with a birthday so close to it! We just had a fun day as a family at home on Friday, yardwork, pool, etc. Then we went and watched the Fireworks at Thanksgiving point that evening....We went plenty early but it was already crazy when we got off the freeway. So we quickly took a right instead of a left, pulled down the side road across the freeway from it, backed the car in and set up camp! IT was FANASTIC! We didn't have to fight the crowds and actually felt like it was just us even though the whole street ended up lined up with cars! When the fireworks started the kids sat on the roof of the car on a blanket and we sat in the open back and it was totally relaxing! Besides the fact that Cole decided that he had to pee just as the show started, typical. Best part was the traffic leaving took no time at all! Saturday Troy and I took Cord and his friend Robbie to Lagoon for Cord's friend party (he got to choose 1 friend to go). We went later in the day and it was SO MUCH BETTER! it was cooler and the lines were shorter and they were great when it got dark!!! Then to round it all off on Saturday we had a family party for Cord at my mom's! It was chaos, but he had a great birthday!!!
