Stake Fair

We had our 2nd annual Stake Fair on Saturday. This year was a ton of fun, just like last! Our Stake President does an amazing job at getting this going and with the help of a HUGE committee, it's become a highlight of the summer. There was a BBQ, bouncy toys, train, game booths, popcorn and cotton candy stands, face painting, "bull riding", concerts, pie eating contest, tug of war...Lots to do. Samantha was all about doing everything, while little Parker protested everything. He just gets in these "I don't want to do anything" moods. Yes, he was in that mood. Oh well, he's only 2, right?! He'd say he wanted to do something, then chicken out at the last minute. Collin was good as gold. Just slept, ate, and hung out. He's great! We had lots of fun and Jeremy even got to participate in the pie eating contest, which he DID NOT SIGN UP FOR!!!! Yeah, he was pretty much forced into it. He did great though! What a sport :) We had a wonderful afternoon with our friends and family.

The only picture I got of Parker. Kind of a grump!

Our ward was in charge of the popcorn stand. It was some really yummy popcorn!

Having fun!

Face painting time! She got a flower...I think. I never got a picture of the final product.

After some good old apple pie! Nice face, Jer!

Jeremy and his friend, Trent. I think Jeremy is convincing Trent that he ate as much as he could!!!

Jer wished he had chosen the cherry pie, instead of apple. Cherries are easier to slurp down!
