Excuses, excuses, excuses

I'm full of them! I started this blog with the intention to blog about every weekend... I've been pretty successful so far... Then I just got busy. Crazy busy... and my blogs got posted later and later... A lot has happened in the last week and 1/2. All Start game (Dennis is blogging about that) Carmen's baby shower, my birthday (Bowling party, and Angels game). This weekend is going to be busy too. Debbie's wedding and Logan's 1st Birthday... I'm going to try and get last weekends blogging done before the weekend but I can't guarantee that I will... I have every intention but you know how that is... For sure I will blog about this weekend and maybe just tie the two together... Well see what happens...

Lunching with the ladies...

I had a lovely Saturday afternoon with a group of lovely ladies... We are all connected through our Boyfriends/ Husband/ or in Nancy's case brothers. We never get a chance to get together since were all on different schedules, so this week we decided that no matter what we were going to make it work.

We went to a restaurant in Rutabagas in Fullerton. Mandy made the suggestion. I was Delicious! Very homemade-ish style.  Here is our group shot. It took a couple of tries but we got it... eventually.

Almost, but cut off

Finally got it!

After lunch I hung out with Lisa and Logan. He is too cute!

He loves himself

They are too cute!

God bless America!

After coming back from Camping, unloading the truck, resting and then have to get ready again I wasn't in the mood to go or do anything! But... I've always looked forward to the 4th of July for the Fireworks! Yes, I know the history behind the day and yes I am thankful for the freedoms that we all have today, but even as a kid I loved the fireworks!

So Stacey, Andrea, Dennis and I left to head to Santana Park, where the City of Corona was having a festival/ fair. Fireworks aren't allowed since were in the middle of the desert, so the city puts on a show. We didn't know what to expect but we were impressed. There was a shuttle from the high school so we didn't have to worry about parking. We parked, got in the bus and got dropped off right in front of the park. They had food booths, a huge stage with a band and all kinds of jump houses for the kids. There were so many people there!  There was an awesome fly over, which ooh and awed the crowd. The fireworks were really good. The show lasted for at least 25 min. I can't wait until next year!

Never camp on a hill...

We have been so busy this year! Whether it was trips to Lauglin, Carson City or camping. there is always something on our agenda.

We left to go Lake Arrowhead Friday night to camp. The campground we stayed at was Dogwood. Dennis and his family had camped there back in the day, so Micheal (family friend) invited us to go we were excited. Plus the place had toilets and showers! My kind of camping!

Overall the trip was a blast. Well minus the freezing nights and the fact that the whole campsite was sloped so we were sliding down in the tent all nigth. We all would start out on our air mattress and then by the time we were up in the morning half of our bodies were off. None of us slept very well this trip. Well at least at night. We all did take a bomb nap Saturday afternoon. I will never, ever camp on a Hill again! EVER

Memory Loss...

I officially can't remember what we did last weekend... Yes, it was a whole 5 days ago...

Here are the details I remember:

Sat: Debbie's Bridal shower
Sunday: Lunch with Dennis' family & Martha's Graduation party!
(I can't believe she has her Masters already) So proud of her!

The rest is just a void... Must have been really eventful. lol

I must really be losing it! :)

Tonight we leave for Big Bear to go camping, I'm sure I'll remember this trip!
