Mary's last birthday celebration of turning 6!

Three weeks after her birthday, we have finally gotten to celebrate turning 6 with everyone!   Our last celebration was with our closest friends.  Brooke, Santino, Gabriella, Keane, Milanie, and Rylee.  We went to Mary's favorite place to play and eat, Burger King.  They all had a great time playing together. 

Mary chose the theme this year to be Hello Kitty.

Another Tooth Gone

Well, now we just look funny.  Mary now has three teeth gone in front.  Her top two and one bottom.  She has the silliest smile now. 

Brothers Of The Sun

 Saturday we headed down to Anaheim with our good friends Michelle and Rob to go see Kenny Chesney and Tim Mcgraw in concert.  We were so excited.  The concert was at Angel's Stadium.  It ROCKED!  We had SO much fun.  The concert started at 4:30.  There were two opening bands, then Tim, then Kenny, then Tim and Kenny together.  We didn't get out until 11:00.  SO AWESOME! 

 Michelle and I on our first beer for the night.

We had awesome seats, thanks to Kevin.  Just perfect.   

It was totally worth every penny we spent on the concert, hotel, and beer.  = )

4th of July 2012

Since the 4th this year was on a Wednesday, we had to celebrate it the weekend before.  We headed up to Merced to our favorite 4th of July spot.  We had a weekend of fun ahead!

This year was themed Red Solo Cup! 

This was the weekend fun planned!

Mary was a fish in the after after having four weeks of swim lessons.  It was awesome! 

 This is what the pool looked like all weekend long.  Someone was always in it having fun

 Kevin was our fisherman catching all the cat fish.

 Teresa even got her pole out and sat for a bit

 Then Kevin was to gut the fish he caught.  They wanted him to skin them, but he didn't know how to skin that kind of fish. 

 One breakfast got a little 'dirty'.  haha  Not planned, maybe.  haha

 Our host of all hosts.  Beverly and her husband, Bob, are great to open our house to all of us crazies.

 The three best buddies for the weekend.

 Then the day before her birthday she finally lost her front tooth.  She had been holding onto it as long as she could.  The vacation tooth fairy gave her three dollars for it.

 Then it was time for the Tittykaka 4th of July parade.  The annual parade.

 The three previous queens.

 And 2012 Tittykaka queen Kelly.

 And here are all the queens so far. 

 When it came to firework time, Teresa did not want to be outside for it.  So, her and I stayed inside teh motorhome to watch.  She said she was safe there. 

 HAPPY 6TH BIRTHDAY MARY ROSE!  Monday morning we had a birthday breakfast for Miss Mary.  She associates her birthday with this place.  So, we can never not celebrate it there!

 On the way home we stopped at Bravo Farms.  We always see all the signs off the fwy and have never stopped.  This year we did.  There was a lot to see.

Our next stop was the Riverland RV Resort for two nights.  It was a really nice place on the Kingsburg River. 

We had a camp spot right on the lake there with a doc to fish off of. 

Mary reeled in her first fish

And here is what she caught.

Kevin won the most tiny fish caught.  I do not know hot this thing even got it's mouth around the hook.

It was a fun relaxing weekend with the family.  The kids did great.  Not too much complaining.  They did sleep in eery morning until 7:30, which was great.  We wore them out.  They even slept together in the big overhead bed in the motor home too.  It was so nice. 

Bowling

Michelle and I put the kids into a 4 week bowling class.  They are having a great time.  It's so cute to watch them try to get the ball down the lane.  Mary does pretty well.  Teresa has gotten the ball all the way down, most of the time.  brooke has done real well too.
