fun filled weekend

This weekend we spent a lot of time in West Point, where the all popular Sweet Corn Festival was going on. The morning yesterday was consumed by the parade, the boys were excited to see us go by on our float, Lydia looked extremely confused as we passed & yelled out to her. Word from grandma is that she was approached by a clown (my cousin) who offered her homemade ice cream. The ice cream was a hit, the clown, not so much. As with all summer festivals around this area, there was a carnival, which we usually shy away from a little, just not too into that kind of stuff. Of course the boys are getting way too old for us to fool them, so we decided to take them up yesterday afternoon after the parade {lots of candy, btw}. The boys haven't been on a ton of rides over the years, like I said, we're not real into it, so they weren't quite brave enough to go on some of the rides, and others were a little too baby. They did go on bumper cars, Lydia got to ride on the carousel, then it was onto the games. They each won a prize, which made them happy, so we moved on from there {kettle corn, of course!}. The picture is them playing the water gun game with their uncle Randy. That was probably Evan's favorite, Collin's was balloon darts.
