Stansbury Days

I know these posts are a little out of order, but that's okay.  We went to our first Stansbury Days on August 18th.  We had so much fun!  We were able to watch the parade with our awesome friends the Porters and the Franks.

 I'm glad Tali is making new friends

 The firemen passed out "Junior Firefighter" hats.  It was adorable!  The kids LOVED it....the hats have since been squished from over use and thrown away.  :)

 She was glad to get a firefighter hat.

 It was a pretty bright morning.  The kids LOVED getting all the candy that was thrown.

 Then our friend who's family was in the parade let the kids play with the balloons on the golf cart.

 Then my friend even took Tali for her first ride in a golf cart.  She thought it was scary at first, but then really loved it!

 Bye everyone!

 The funniest part was them driving under the pine tree and jumping when the balloons on the golf cart popped.  :)

 After the parade we headed over to the festivities.  We found some cute jewelry for super cheap for Tali (from her allowance) and the kids got to pet some animals.

 

 Jairus thought the turtle was pretty cool!

 He would not touch the snake though.  Tali did which really surprised me.

 We then went over to the clubhouse to donate blood.  Let me tell you, when you and your spouse go to donate blood, it is SO much EASIER if you get a sitter to watch your kiddos.  We thought we could switch off....hahaha!  Not so much!

 Pictures brought to you by Tali.

 Haha.  He's smiling because he doesn't have the needle in his arm yet.  :)

 See the fake smile?  He's really gritting his teeth.  In all fairness, the nurse did push hard on his arm WHILE pulling out the needle.

 Later that evening our friend had invited us to go over to her family's house which was just off the lake to watch fireworks.  It was seriously the COOLEST thing EVER!  You cannot beat a fireworks show off of the lake!  We absolutely LOVED every minute of it!  Thanks Camilla & Dustin!
