I officially started my vacation on Wednesday my husband had to work until Friday. We aren't going any where just doing stuff around here.... so my husband wanted to start it on Friday. How about we go out to dinner and than go bowling? Well I am game so I ask the kids and they are too, Wonderful our vacation starts now!
After dinner we go over to the bowling alley, we get our shoes and go to the lane which two other people are next to us. Now I have to teach my son bowling etiquette. I explain the whole thing about having two people on both sides and that if they are getting ready to bowl you have to wait. I thought he understood. The problem with my son is he gets his ball and doesn't stop to think he just bowls. I always stand there for a time and look at the pins and than I go for it, not him! He does bowl really smooth and has a nice curve if only he knew how to use it! We all did really lousy, but we had fun as a family and that' s what it is all about.
Day two: Saturday we had already planned on going river rafting so my husband wanted to know what time. Shot for leaving the house at ten. Now I don't commit to anything because I don't get up earily. I think we left about 10:30 so that wasn't to bad. I should tell you we go river rafting every year because my sister in law owns the business. She had called and said that this would be the last weekend because the water is just to low to go for any longer. So we get there and it is really busy, but she said the next raft to come in would be ours. Our name is called and we go to the raft and of course the guy has to tells all about the river and what to expect blah blah blah! We get on our way and it is good. Okay there is another thing I have to tell you I do not help paddle the boat and the reason for that is my husband is always getting mad at me that I am not paddling on the right side or paddling the wrong way. So today he says I need a little help here. So he tells our daughter if we are going to the left paddle on the right if we are going to the right paddle on the left if we need to slow down paddle backward. It is so confusing. So he always makes it stressful. I told him next year he can go by himself and he won't have to worry if anyone is paddling right or not! It turned out to be okay after all I did help paddle we did get stuck on some rocks and some parts we had to walk the boat or rock the boat, but it was all good.
Next we went to anothe free concert. This was the sounds of santana! They we pretty good. The guy playing the guitar did really close to Carlos Santana. A lot of people got up and danced a lot of drunk people made fool's of themselves, but it was nice to be out together as a family!
Tomorrow we are off to Reno! I will let you know how that goes!!
