Vivs 1st Birthday and 4th of July 2008

We all met in Lake Tahoe North Shore, Kings beach for Vivs 1st Birthday. The weekend of 28/29 June we had 1st bday with Riches family . His Mom 2 sisters and his niece. With Sara, Rich,Viv, Jenn and me. We had a great time. Viv s favorite toy was a lion which roars and has wheels so she can push it all over the place, Uncle Bob, Richs brother got it for her. She loved her cake had it from eyebrows to chin.
I so enjoy Riches family they treat me like one of the family.
On the following week end the 4th, the rest of the group was up. Mel&Grant and Ziggy from Seattle, Wash. Grants parents Jerome and Pamela from Texas, Fort worth I think, Jenn from Tuscon Az, Brian from Orange county Ca, Sara and Rich from L.A. Kerry from S.F. Crista and Jeff from Livermore, Ms Lizabeth and me from S.J. a great group of people. We watched the fireworks on the beach Thursday night at Kings Beach Viv loved them, Friday the 4th we went over to the condo M&G were staying at in Tahoe city. Both kids and adults enjoyed the fireworks. Had a BBQ and an evening of visiting.
Saturday had Vivs second Birthday party, she enjoyed it as much as the first. Sara had a Pinata which was great fun. We took hundreds of pictures, posted on flicker
It was a great week, Sara, Jenn and I stayed up one night until 4 in the morning
just talking, about family, sports, history, politics and any other subject that came up. We havn't done that in years, it was so much fun. The only thing wrong with the week was it was over to soon.
