weekend fun

we went to touch a truck today in safety harbor. all sorts of "trucks from around your neighborhood" were there and vyni got to climb into them all and push buttons and pull levers and get stickers. she had a BLAST!!! she really loved it. we had a really good time. and -- it was free. i/ve discovered there/s lots of little neighborhood get together activities for kids that don/t cost. i don/t know why i didn/t think to look for stuff like this before. so watch for more pics of other weekend activites. because we/ve got stuff on the calendar almost every saturday all summer long. of course, the beginning of summer bash at sunset park was a bust. but, we/re keeping our fingers crossed that more are like touch a truck and less are like the beach bash.

i/d say, three day weekends with my mom and dad rock!!!

the legitimization of my daughter

shel and i finally tied the knot. we just had a little ceremony with my family and his mom at the park yesterday afternoon and then had a cookout and a lot of fun. it was great and now my last name has two capital letters in it. that rocks. these are only the pics taken on my camera, but as this was just yesterday, these are the pictures i have already. i/ll post more from other cameras as i get them. (okay, this has been sitting here waiting for me to upload the pics, and i now have the ones from val/s camera too. so here/s both)
