Festival + Fireworks

[Nebulous]

Well I had a fun evening.. My daughter's mom (my ex) invited me to go to a festival with her and the kids (my daughter and her son).. My brother and his two friends randomly stopped in for a visit and I told them what I was about to go do, and they wanted to tag along. So we all went to the festival which was a few towns over.. We walked around the little stands they had and checked out the stuff people were selling.. I got a bratwurst from the German stand.. We watched the concert going on there for a while, then the kids went on the carnival rides.. After that we headed over to the high school in that town to watch the HUGE professional fireworks display.. I have to say it was quite impressive. They were shooting up some pretty amazing fireworks and the show must have lasted 45 minutes. At the end they did their grand finale and shot of a million fireworks at once.. Well maybe not a million but there was a bunch. After that we all went to a restaurant for dinner..

Now I'm finally home the lil one fell asleep in the car on the way home, she was tired.

What a wonderful evening. I'm glad you had such a great time. Memories like that are SO precious.

Did you take any photos?

 

[Nebulous]

Thanks Rapunzel.. No I didnt bring my camera along this time. :/

Not to worry, there's always next year. Events like that are always good fun. How nice of your ex to invite you along to share in the fun.

I went day dreaming then for a little while, seems like a really nice place.

Glad you had a good time.

I think it's wonderful that you and your ex get along so well. Sounds like a really fun event and I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.

Thanks. We just ate the leftovers from the restaurant for lunch.. Food always tastes better fresh.

I have a lot of respect for you and your ex. More parents need to be like you two.

 

[Nebulous]

Thanks. We get along way better as friends..

It works for us because we shifted our mindset of each other from lovers/ex-lovers to family members. I care a lot about my family and I only want the best for them.



I could not imagine being like some other people I know who are in the same situation. I feel sorry for their kids.

 

[JustMe]

I hate when people use the children to try to hurt each other.

 

[Nebulous]

I have a friend who is only allowed to see his kids like 1 or 2 days a month and doesn't try to fight for more time. Seems like he doesn't care because he doesn't want to deal with the mom.



I know I would go insane if I could only see my kid 1 or 2 days a month. It'd probably eat me up inside.
