So much FUN!

We went to the State Fair today! It was a total blast! We were happy that Ben's family was able to meet up with us there as well. This was my first time to the Arizona State Fair and I have totally been missing out all these years I haven't gone. It was so great! Emma rode the carousel, pony ride (click for video), ferris wheel, and a few little kiddie rides that she was able to ride all by herself. She was so happy to be able to ride the pink elephants by herself. She's so fun. She also tried the mini bumper cars (click for another video!), but she was too short to reach the pedal, so the attendant had to help her the whole time... but what a trooper! Emma is such a fun little girl. Becca slept much of the time... maybe next year she'll be able to get more out the fair. :) My favorite was riding the log ride with Emily. We both got soaked, but it felt so nice in the heat... and I was all dry in a short time. We also had corn dogs, funnel cake and cotton candy... mmmm... healthy fair food. ;)



Last night we had our ward trunk or treat. It was also sooo fun! What a splendid weekend we've been having, eh? We all dressed up as Winnie the Pooh characters. Emma was such a cute Pooh and Becca was a darling Roo. :) I was so proud of Emma getting so into the trick or treating... she went up to everyone passing out candy saying "Trick or Treat!". Such a pro! I was impressed with the many clever costumes in the ward... we have such a fun ward! There was an ice cream sundae, a LOST character, a Tetris piece... and the Man in the Yellow Hat with Curious George (good work getting that costume together Ashley!) I was also impressed with Ezra finishing off a whole sucker. Good work! Emma also has been enjoying her treats here at home... there is even plenty to share with mommy and daddy!
