Art City Days

This week was Art City Days in Springville. We had lots of fun taking the kids to the different events. One of the first events that we went to was the skating competition. Bekah, Kayla and myself took our kids, (Plus Kayla brought her nephews too) So we had quite the crowd. The kids really enjoyed it, especially because of the free hot dogs and drinks.
On Friday we went to the Children's Art Fair. This is the third year that we have taken them. We had a great time. The first thing we did, was to get Hunter's, Halle's, and Brighton's faces painted. They enjoyed it so much, that they went a second time to get the other cheek painted. Houston and Mash decided to sit the face painting out. We then had to go wait in line for the balloon animals. Kayla and I held the place in line, while Bekah went and did an Art activity with the three oldest. Even after they got back, we still had plenty of time to wait.
Mash made the most of the time, and took a little nap. The rest of the kids posed for pictures, and then finally decided to arm wrestle.

This is the three oldest arm wrestling together. Halle was victorious, and Hunter was a little upset. So then he decided that he would work out to get stronger. Halle and Hunter both started doing push ups. I think they ended at 103.
After all that waiting, we were finally the second place in line. Then they ran out of balloons. We were told that they would have more in an hour.
Well, everyone was ready to go after that.

On Saturday, Jeff and I took the boys to the carnival. It was nice and sunny while we were there. We decided to break tradition, and get a funnel cake instead of a scone. I have to say, that funnel cake was pretty good. Plus one cake feed all four of us.
After our treat, we took Hunter on some rides.


That night, we watched the fireworks. We had a good view, and Houston absolutely loved them! After every fire work, he would point to it, and said, "Wow!"
Overall it was a very fun week. We look forward to it next year.
