Deep Thoughts

"Great things are brought about and burdens lightened through the efforts of many hands “anxiously engaged in a good cause.” Imagine what the millions of Latter-day Saints could accomplish in the world if we functioned like a beehive in our focused, concentrated commitment to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ." M. Russell Ballard October 2012 General Conference

A Fairly Chilly Fair

Cody wore this lovely hat.

We ate lots of chocolate cake.

And lots of cotton candy.

It was sunny and warm on Sunday. Cody and Justin Jourdan.

Connor working with Clayton, Don's cousin.

Connor, Taylor, Laura, Cayden and Caleb

Taylor rode the Bumblebees with Cayden.

This is the ride Caleb puked on.

This is Caleb pointing to the ride that he puked on.

Caleb, Cayden and Taylor on the Tilt-a-whirl.  I thought at first that Cayden was going to freak out and start crying when the ride started.  The look on his face was shear terror at first but he said it was fun.
The Fair this year was super cold and windy for 3 days of the 4.  We usually plan on atleast 1 bad day of weather but this year it was horrible.  We all were pretty busy though regardless of the weather.  Don was in town at a trade show until Thursday afternoon but the rest of us were there mostly from open until close.  I did come home and rest most afternoons and Cayden and I were home by 8:30 or 9 just because it was so cold and I was so tired.  We ate cotton candy and chocolate cake and lots of Polish Sausages.  Cody worked for the Fair running supplies and Pepsi around.  Connor worked hauling trash for Gma and Gpa and Caleb worked in the BBQ tent and a little bit with Gma and Gpa.  He had bigger ideas of work until he was actually working.  Cayden just wanted to be on the cart.  The kids did do the carnival atleast once a piece.  Thank goodness Laura and Taylor were there to take Cayden on some rides.  Caleb went too but the bigger the crew the better it seems.  Sunday ended up being the nicest day of the Fair but once the sun went down it was frigid.  I had on multiple layers and gloves but still cold.  The kids were cold too but reveled in the joy of the Fair rather than the misery of the cold.
