IAN AND ASHER WITH MAMO AND CHIQUITA AT THE PARK.

CHIQUITA HAD TO STOP AND DO HER JOB ON THE WAY TO THE PARK ASHER FOUND A SPIDER TRUCK AND DID NOT WANT TO PART WITH IT, SO WE SWANG WITH THE TRUCK IN HAND. I WAS PROUD OF HIM FOR LEAVING IT AT THE PARK. I TOLD HIM IF HE TOOK IT THAT MAYBE THE BOY WHO LEFT IT WOULD BE SAD IF WE TOOK IT. SO HE WAS WILLING TO LEAVE IT WHERE HE FOUND IT. IAN SWINGING, I TRIED ONCE TO RUN UNDER HIM TO PUSH HIM HIGH HE DID NOT LIKE THAT AND SAID "NO, MAMO, JUST A LITTLE BIT". HERE HE IS SHOWING OFF. I MADE CHIQUITA SIT AND WATCH US PLAY. SHE DID A GOOD JOB OF STAYING WHEN I ASKED HER TOO.

THE DRAGON SLIDE

BEFORE WE COULD GO DOWN THE SLIDE, MEN AND BOYS HAD TO TEST THEIR STRENGTH

BILL, IAN, JOE AND ASHER TRIED TO PULL THE SWORD OUT OF THE STONE. UNFORTUNATELY, THEY WERE UNSUCSESSFUL-THE GIRLS CHEERED THEM ON BEFORE GOING DOWN THE DRAGON SLIDE. I WAS SO SURPRISED HOW MUCH ASHER AND IAN LOVED IT AND THEY WERE NOT SCARED. WE EACH TOOK TURNS GOING DOWN WITH THEM. IAN WOULD SAY TO ME "MAMO YOU ARE FUNNY CAUSE YOU SCREAM". KIDS SAY THE CUTEST THINGS.

DEVINS FAMILY ARRIVED EARLY FRIDAY MORNING -JUNE 10-12. 2011.

THEY LEFT THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND DROVE ALL NIGHT AND GOT HERE ON FRIDAY 4 AM. THE KIDS WERE SO EXCITED AND SLEPT THE BETTER PART OF THE WAY. SO THEY WERE WIDE AWAKE. I STAYED UP WITH THEM AND MIRANDA AND DEVIN WENT TO BED. WE PLAYED WITH THE TOYS I HAD SET UP FOR THEM AND THEN WATCHED AN IMAX UNDER THE SEA MOVIE. FIRST AUBREY WENT TO SLEEP ON THE COUCH. DIEGO FINALLY LAYED BY HIS SISTER AND HE WAS FAST TO SLEEP WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES. I WENT BACK TO BED. WHEN WE ALL WOKE UP WE STARTED PLAYING AGAIN AND HAD BREAKFAST THEN ME AND AUBREY STARTED MAKING CINNAMON ROLLS. SHARAES FAMILY ARRIVED FRIDAY AT 2 P.M. SHARAE CAME DOWN TO SEE DIEGO, SHE HAD NOT SEEN HIM SINCE HE WAS BORN. SO THEY MADE THE 4 HRS TRIP TO SPEND FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AND LEAVE SUNDAY. EVERYBODY LEFT ON SUNDAY. SO IT WAS ONLY A FEW DAYS VISIT. DIEGO LOVES THE KITCHEN I HAD ORIGINALLY BOUGHT FOR DAITYN. I WISHED DEVS FAMILY COULD HAVE TAKEN IT HOME AND THE TODDLER BED, SO DEIGO COULD HAVE THEM. FAST ASLEEP WITHIN MINUTES.
