Family Fun Day

Robbie left early this morning for a conference in Ohio and I needed to take Robbie and Dan, another student in his lab, to the airport. So Grandma and Grandpa took Jared and Alex the night before so that the kids could go to their Stake Family Fun Day.

Aimee took Alex in the stroller over to the festivities.

Jared got a new bike this week, because he was getting too small for his tricycle. He was so excited about his bike that is "just like Benjamin's". He keeps saying it over and over again. Benjamin is a kid that lives here in our complex that is a year old than Jared and they have fun riding their bikes together. His bike is the exact same as Benjamin's. We didn't try to do that, it just so happens that it is the cheapest bike at Walmart and met his needs. He thought it was so cool that he got to ride his bike in the parade. All day long and for a few days afterward he kept talking about. It was his favorite part of the whole day.

Go Fish!

They had a huge water slide that Jared was a little scared to go down at first, but he eventually went down with Aimee. The water even took them off of the slide once and they were sliding down the grass. Aimee took Alex down once and he did not like it at all. He kept giving her nasty looks after that, whereas before he was giving his cousin Mylah nasty look for stealing away his Aunt Aimee.

Jared was very excited about the "Y" painted on his face. He kept saying "Go BYU"! We have trained him well. He didn't want to take a bath because he didn't want the "Y" to wash off. So we told him we would paint on another one if he wanted. As things would have it, he never asked. Doesn't he look like a tough little football player?

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for a very fun Family Fun Day!
