Snow cones, Cotton Candy, Train rides, Bounce houses, Dunk Tanks, Jousting, Sumo Wrestling, Water Slide, Laser Tag, Pie-eating contest, BBQ, Fireworks, Laughter, Fun, and memories that will last a life time. All this because of one amazing country in which we live. And all this because of brave men and women who fight to protect us and our freedoms. Thank you! Thank you! to all who sacrifice so much for us. For me.
Abby so badly wanted to do the dunk tank. She begged and begged me to put her swimsuit on. Wish granted! That water was just a little cold. fyi: I did try to warn her.
That is one intense face!
Nathan wore his goggles (or googly eyes as he calls them) on the water slide. Funny boy!
We couldn't have asked for a nicer day. High 90's, but overcast with off and on sprinkling.
(Nathan was somewhat not impressed with those oversized Sumo outfits)
We had bounce houses for all ages. Ages 1-3, 3-5, and a Ginormous Obstacle course for all ages!
The train was an absolute favorite. It ran all day starting at 10am until 9pm. Nonstop! It was just as much fun to drive it as it was to ride in it.
There was an endless supply of cotton candy and snow cones. The kids were hardly without one of them.
This year we had so many pies that we had enough for a dad's contest, kids contest, and a mom's contest.
Some of the pies had gift cards or $1 bills in them. Nathan and I were lucky winners of dollar bills.
Aaron tried to kiss me with that face. No way! Poor Nathan got my kiss.
The kids were so excited to participate! They were all such good sports.
This has become such a fun tradition in our neighborhood. It is something we look forward to each year. It has become such a big deal that many of our neighbors are inviting their extended families. Who wouldn't want to join in the fun though? All for $20/family for a day of unlimited fun and truly lasting memories. We feel pretty darn spoiled in our little community of Lehi. Thank you America for allowing us to live in a land that we can create such fun!

That looks like so much fun! I loved abby's pic after the dunk tank. That is too funny! You can't find that kind of fun anywhere else for $20! Lucky you!
So cute. I am sad we missed out on the fun. We were out of town but there will always be a next year.
