The Ferris Wheel


We sure have been keeping busy around here and I'm having a hard to believing that it is the middle of June already! Where have the weeks gone? Between my planning for VBS & summer school, Mark's gardening and Ella's favorite past-time of playing in the sprinkler, we have still found some to time to enjoy a few local festivals. The start of the small town festival season at the beginning of June is Cheesefest. We enjoyed the food, rides, fireworks, parade and especially the company. We were able to take in some of the sights and sounds with family visiting from California--we were so glad to see you, Hal and Sharleen!


Ella getting ready for her very first Ferris Wheel ride with her "Greatest Uncle" Hal!

She was just beaming with joy and Hal and Ella had plenty of time to chat while they waited for the ride to start!

James was wide-eyed at the all the sights and sounds and he really enjoyed having more than a taste of cotton candy!

We stayed for the fireworks at end of the night. Both kids enjoyed snuggling up with Mom and Dad to watch the beautiful colors and the "ooing and aahing". By the time we got home they were both sound asleep...too much excitement for them! It was the quietest, easiest bedtime we have had in a long time!!!
