Yesterday Aaron and i took the kids to the fair, Not so that we could all ride the rides( BECAUSE THEY WERE OUTRAGEOUSLY PRICED!!!) but to walk around and see all the fun things for sale and to get a carnival Corn Dog. Aaron had heard that They were divine. After paying 3 dollars for one... the verdict is in... We are not impressed! The breading was really thick and I felt horrible after eating it! So we went and found the cotton candy stand. Is anyone surprised? You shouldn't be! :) We walked around all the different booths and we even went and saw Kyle at the Wells Fargo booth, the kids all spun their wheel and got prizes. Paco is most happy because one of the prizes was a Frisbee. On of the young men/young women organizations had a pony ride set up. all of our kids were totally excited about that. It was fun to watch them climb up into the saddles and get lead around the "circle" . The last time they rode horses was when Chelsea was like 2. We were at the American west heritage fall festival and the only thing i remember was that Chelsea SCREAMED the entire time that she was on the horse. She hated it. and every time she would see a horse after that she SCREAMED. So I was pleasantly surprised when she climbed up and didn't give one complaint. ( now I also realize that she is 4 years older and that she is no longer afraid of animals but still. Memories die hard sometimes.
PARTY! PARTY! PARTY! PARTY! Because there were so many people in town for Kyah's Baptism. We decided that Our church house was the solution to this problem. Luckily Aaron thought ahead and had the Gym and Kitchen booked Like 3 weeks in advance. ( thanks Honey ) All of our family that came for the event were ther and so were some of our closest friends. The only one I didn't get a picture of were Katie and Joel because they had to leave early. One of the best things about our families is that the In-Laws get along great! In fact they were chatting it up the entire time they were together. Aaron was so worried that we wouldn't have enough food to feed everyone, He practically obsessed over it , but when it was all said and done. there was SOOO much left over food that we were begging people to take some home with them! This was a wonderful reason for a family gathering and I am so glad that i have a bright special Young girl that has chosen to take the first step ...
