Fabulous Weekend

Fabulous Weekend!! Let me just say that we have had the best weekend ever and it is only Saturday! Friday we introduced the kids to the magical experience of a carnival. Emma has been saying, "when the carnival comes back to town...I AM GOING!" over and over! They LOVED it, and surprisingly rode many rides. I rode a ferris wheel for the first time. I was scared. I am thankful that the power did not go out while we were at the top...which it did several times after we got off!! Holy Cow, I would have grabbed my kids and my husband and shimmied down to safety somehow. I have little faith in the workers that were at this particular carnival and I know I could have made it down before anyone ever knew the power was out. Seriously, I don't think some of the workers even knew...

Also, you will find a picture of one of my Friday roses! They are a beautiful color and I can't wait for them to bloom!
Lastly, tonight at church we had a guest speaker, Ben Stuart. David really admires this guy and I proceeded to embarrass my husband and tell Ben. It was a great message and if anyone is reading this and thinking about not going to church because Matt is not there...you will soooo miss out if you don't go!
May tomorrow be as great as Friday and today!!

Here we are on the spinning dinosaur ride.

Pure Joy!

Sweet Emma with her sweet Daddy on the Ferris Wheel.
(why did I capitalize ferris wheel?)
(ok, this is funny. I did a spell check because I can't stand misspelled words. It said "ferris" was wrong because it need to be capitalized! Did you know this?!?)


Incredible scenery! Can you smell the funnel cakes?Mmmmmm!

Jacob looks just like David!
