Along for the ride

Shannon and the girls came all the way to SD to go see a Junior Theatre play with me, Raquel and some of my Gscouts.. We had to go downtown for the show. But trying to find this theatre was like trying to find a needle in a haystack.(i'm sounding like my mom, sis and honey at the moment, with their cliche's). I was not a happy camper trying to find this place..The setting takes place in a mall at Horton Plaza.. I could never live down there..Busy and just: Busy city.

We finally made to the theatre on time. I had to call a friend for directions.. It was very sunny down below so the girls had a hard time smilng.

A moment of closeups
Shannon has more pics of inside the theatre..She needs to send them to me so I can post them up here. Inside watching the play was a lot of fun for all the kids. Even Rylee enjoyed it. Before the play actually started Rylee decided to lose a sandal. All the girls and parents were on a sandal hunt. It was just crazy and funny. Lo and behold the sandal was located in one of my parents seat. We found it after she got up for the break.
That Rylee!
I couldn't tell which picture was better so I put both of them up.. and I know Shan has a better group picture of them. Again she has to send to me! Hint hint :)

Oh yes! The play was called "You're a good Man Charlie Brown" Very cute..The cast was great and a lot of fun to watch.

Hike & Site Selling

This was another busy day for us Salcedo's..First off, we went on a little trail hike with our troop. It was such a nice day. We saw lots of nature. Joey and Raquel enjoyed taking pictures of the scenery and mostly bugs.

We came upon a ton of caterpillars..Joey was afraid to step anywhere, thinking he might step on one..

After the hike we went to Joey's soccer practice, then Raquel and I had a cookie site sell we had to go to. Vons was a great place to sell. We did great there! Sold tons of cookies. The girls were so cute..Dancing around and singing..Raquel did a lot of singing..She made me laugh so much.

Tea Room in Old Town

This was a fantastic fieldtrip we took Raquels troop on. We went to Old Town, in San Diego, and had a little Tea party at this really old house that's been in Old Town for 100's of years. The girls got to dress up if they wanted and wear boas and hats from the house..They were taught with how women(back in the 1800's and so on) used their manners back in the day and what they ate at parties.

Raquel and her newest webkinz on her head(banana is her name)...Funny girl huh? Here she is wearing her boa, gloves and sparkly hat..

Everyone loved posing serious pictures, pretending they were from the move star days..

I had to get in on the act as well!!! It was a blast dressing up, even though it was just a hat..

Raquel and her pretend tea..She didn't want to try the tea so she asked for lemonade.. That's my Raquel! Not wanting to try things..I tried it..It was ok.

Fancied up!

Playing a game of Crochet

"Pump It Up!"

Our troop went to "Pump It Up" for our late cookie celebration. It's a place where there are huge jump houses and slides..We even had a couple of our new Gscouts with us, and a lot of siblings/friends join as well.


I couldn't get the best picture of Raquel, because she was always running. I got a lot of her backend.

Joey loved the basketball jumper.

Raquel and Tori going through some kind of play house, and Joey going down the slide. Then there's Raquel going down the slide..

Raquel going down backwards..I told ya, a lot of backend pics of her.

I had to go down the slide too!
