Oh Carpinteria! (Part 2)

We had a rough night on Monday night. Cody woke up at about two o'clock with a really high fever. He was a little delirious. We were a little worried and I did not remember to pack tylenol. We got him to drink some fluids and Kevin slept with him. If Cody got any hotter we were going to go and get tylenol, but the only problem was that we would have to drive to Santa Barbara so we waited. He seemed to stay the same so we just let him sleep. In the morning Eva and I walked to the store and got some tylenol. He seemed to be doing better. We kind of came to the conclusion that it may have been dehydration and heat exhaustion. He played so hard on Monday and didn't drink enough. He doesn't like to stop. But he ended up being ok by the end of the day on Tuesday. Tuesday however was Ty's third birthday. So Auntie Amanda and Uncle Ryan had planned his party up there. We missed part of it but it was full of water fun...water balloons, water squirters (like at Wes's party) and a little pool. Ty also had a fun Lightning McQueen pinata. Happy birthday Ty we are so glad that we got to spend it with you. Cody took it easy for the rest of the day. That night we went to Pizza with all the family for Ty's birthday!

Eva practicing sitting up and playing with cousin Logan.

Happy 3rd birthday Tyler! We love you!

Poor Cody didn't have much strength but he tried.

Where the yummy ice cream sundaes were.

I'm gonna get you Logan!

They weren't really playing but they didn't know the difference.

Who's crying kids are ruining this picture of

Tyler and his cousins...oh right those are ours.

And we ended this night as we did most nights

with all the boys in the street playing cars. 

Wednesday morning we woke up to fog. It was over cast most of the day. It was not great beach weather but Kevin and Cody went down for a while. While the kids were napping we had our annual tea party. It was Eva's first! She loved every moment of it as you can see from the pictures. The boys also had a great time playing with Ty's new birthday present, a basketball hoop. Later that night we met Kevin, Amber, and Mick at Padero Grill for dinner. It has kind of become a tradition to meet them there once during the week. It was pretty cold but we had a great time. I hate to say it but I would be totally ok with Eva marrying Mick. He is adorable and I love his parents. Is it still ok to arrange marriages?

The beautiful tea party set up.

Eva and her soon to be bestie with me and 

my bestie since we were 15 months old.

See so excited about the tea party!

Shootin hoops with the boys!

Noah, Luke, Cody and Ty....aren't they adorable?!

They are the best of friends and the worst of enemies. 

They love each other so much.

Eva was having fun posing for the camera.

Kevin and Kevin and the kids. We are so blessed to 

have remained friends all these years.

Eva was being a little aggressive. Mick didn't know 

what to think of her. 

So sweet he wanted to hold her hand.
