The fair came back to Logandale April 10-13. Don and I have not done anything up there as far as volunteering since the year I was pregnant with Kyle but the boys still work up there and want to be up there as much as possible. Connor still works with Grandma and Grandpa doing trash. He also spent hours and hours up there the week of the fair helping with setup. Caleb worked in the ice cream parlor. Cayden got to help Grandma one night which was the highlight of his weekend. Ashley Farmer and Tara and her 3 kids were in Vegas for Spring Break and stopped by on their way back to St. George. Grandpa Don got us a few day passes so we could go up there with them for lunch. We went through the animal barns with them and saw the turkeys and the rabbits and the baby pigs and goats. I went to the Lonestar concert Friday night with my friend Shelby. Cayden got to hang out with a few friends on Friday going to the carnival. Some of those rides are not his favorite but he was content to just wait for his friends while they went on them. I am glad that he won't do something he doesn't want to even with cajoling and coaxing from his friends-hopefully that will serve him well in the future when it comes to peer pressure. We ate our favorite fair food-Cayden likes the Dippin' Dots and I loved the Texas Twister drinks. I found my new favorites this year of the big slabs of peanut butter chocolate fudge and the chocolate dipped strawberries and bananas. Caleb and Don love the gyros. Kyle has not yet grasped the concept of the fair food bliss that is available only once a year. Connor spent the nights at Grandma's house so he could stay late and get up there early in the morning. We saw our favorite clown PJ and Kyle was not super excited so we had to get a covert shot of her with him. The weather was really hot this year and the wind came up on Saturday night and then was really bad Sunday. Since Don and I weren't working up there this year we didn't spend as much time up there and we didn't go up there on Sunday. It was so hot on Friday and Saturday that we were only there a few hours each day in the afternoon until it was just too hot for Kyle. Don would usually take Cayden back up in the evening for a treat.
