June- Week 2- Carnival, Chalk Art, Wheeler Farm

We babysat cousins Katie and Truman while their mom and dad were in Hawaii!  
One of the fun things we did was go to Uncle David's work carnival!  
We started with some fun pony rides!
Don't worry that she looks like she's about to fall off. ;) 

Inflatable bounce house with slide! 

Unfortunately, some dark storm clouds rolled in and the carnival got rained out within the first hour.  Here we are, huddled under the food tents waiting for it to let up so we can run to the car.  
You may also note poor Truman had puffy swollen eyes for most of his stay with us.  Not sure what he may have been allergic to, but he never complained.  McKenna also threw up the following morning.  So we had an eventful time while the Stewarts were with us.  :) 
That same weekend, Father's Day weekend, was the Chalk Art Festival (sponsored by Utah Foster Care Foundation) at the Gateway.  McKenna was tired of walking, so the girls squished together.  
We went on Friday night, so a lot of the art wasn't done yet. But here are some  of the highlights.  
Thanks you Pic Stitch for making it easy to post a lot of pictures a one time. :) 


Father's Day Sunday we were lucky enough to have Dan home in the morning.  No Meetings!  We're so blessed to have this guy in our lives!  His children adore him and they loved spoiling him with many pictures, his favorite candy, and supplies for an up coming camping trip.  
The next day, we got to visit with one of Dan's old roommates, Scott and Laura McIntyre, and their cute family!  They were visiting from Kansas!  It was so great to catch up and the kids played very well together! 



Later that night we attended the Nelson Family Party to celebrate June Birthdays!  My baby is turning 1!!  

We, and the cousins, bought a $5 summer movie pass to see 10 movies (one every Tuesday morning) and we rotate which adult goes with the kids.    
We also went to Wheeler Farm with cousins.  The weather was perfect!! You'll notice jackets in JUNE?!?



This kid likes to "snuddle" and fall asleep on me.  Well, ok! :) #imafaker

OMG you just hashtagged you're own blog post! Love it. No Hunger Games at this Chalk Art Festival? Shameful.

Benny's hair in his face makes him look so much older for some reason! I love me a good snuddle!

I always love seeing those chalk art posts. Genius idea on swapping who sits with the kids at the movies.
