The "Alaskan" Kings: Summer 2010

Wow, what a HOT, busy and crazy spring/summer for us! Adam was gone the month of May at Safety School in New Mexico and we rendevoused in San Diego for my brother's wedding over Memorial Day weekend! The wedding was awesome! The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was a blast. The kids partied hard until 10pm. The kids fell asleep in their car seats before we were out of the parking lot. We all had a lot of fun! My other brother stayed in CA with us as we hit up some of the big attractions in San Diego for kiddos-Sea World and the Zoo. A great time was had by all!! We came back to NC the first weekend of June. The following weekend we would have Sarah's B-day party. After being home for a few days Adam's parents and his sister and her two kids came up from FL and GA to visit and for Sarah's B-day party. Saturday we had her party which was a big success and a lot of fun for the kiddos. Come Sunday morning the kids and I were alone yet again. Adam's family had gone home and Adam left for a week long TDY to AZ. Upon Adam's return I was in and out of the doc's office with sick kiddos and Adam was pulling long days at work. I was waking up at night with the kids and he was coming home late and leaving early, so no one was getting much sleep. With pink eye and ear infections we stayed close to home so we didn't spread the germs. About a week later Sarah either had a reaction to the amoxicillin or a stomache virus. She was miserable for a day or so then finally started coming back around. Finally the last few days of June life was back to normal. Adam's project at work was done and the kids were feeling better! Now its time to go to "Manga & Papa's" (Adam's parents) house in FL for the 4th of July and one last shindig at their house. Friday they will be closing on the sale of their house! We are excited to see what lies ahead for them! My head is spinning just thinking about the month of June, but we made the best of it and made sure to get out and do stuff as a family, such as hiking and blueberry picking. The rest of the summer we will be laying low at home. Hopefully we will be able to get more work done with the house. I'll be uploading pictures a little at a time. Here are some photos from my brother's wedding to start it off. Look for more in the next few days.
