Pioneer Day Fun!







So the best thing about living in a little town is all the activities and events that are family oriented...this past weekend we had cousins, grandma fluffies, and grandpa Bob here to visit and take part in the Famous Saint Anthony Pioneer Day celebration. People come from all over to attend the events held every year during this weekend in July.


We all had a blast at the play-this year it was Tom Sawyer (Madison and Aidan were glued to the stage-other than the lovey dovey scene-Aidan hid his face for that part) They came away singing songs from it:) We all attended the Rodeo. My Favorite part has to be watching the kids ride the calves-Tavin wanted to do it but he isn't old enough yet...in a few years.


The cousins also slept in a tent in the back yard with Uncle Dan, got to go to the new water park close to our house, and watched a matinee showing of Kung Fu Panda 2. One of the Highlights was the parade on Saturday Morning. The kids had fun watching all the floats and catching candy. They came away with quite the stash. If I let them, Katie and Tavin would eat the candy they collected every meal!


Katie sat safely in Grandma Fluffies lap-I was just so happy she didn't throw a fit from all the noise-lately she has been quite skiddish about loud noises and big trucks. There were plenty of both-but she made it through as long as someone was holding her. The best was the free chocolate milk they give out every year:)


Tavin is already asking for his cousins and when they will come and visit again-hint hint hint sisters:) We love our family. Thanks for coming to visit!

Thanks for letting Aidan come. He had so much fun. We are working on coming up...soon. Mom told me about the kitchen table conversation about loving cousins but not being "in" love with them and that Tavi says he doesn't love boys. I love it...
