5th in Lewiston


I think we invited ourselves up to Lewiston this year! It is SO much fun and it's tradition (although I do want to try out Lander one year too!). We woke up the kids and packed them in the car, we hoped GK would fall back asleep because he'd been out so late all weekend, but not a chance. We got there JUST in time.

The parade was awesome, not too long but TONS of candy! All the girls on the floats were beautiful, Anthony hooked up GK with a shirt that would fit the poor kid.
(I had made GK & Bentley matching shirts w/o trying them on. Gk's said it was a 2T/3T, well he was sporting his bare midriff! Lesson learned!)
We went to the carnival and waited 45 minutes (I'm sure I'm exaggerating) for a pony ride.
GK Loved it!
Then we went to the red, white, & blue party. It was a blast & there was so much good food. GK had a blast in all the blow up toys & balls. Bentley slept the whole time!

Jenn & Patrick tried to teeter totter, but she's no match for Patrick so Brandon hopped on to help and we all heard some cracking of the wood and Patrick was off that thing before you could say "Liberty"!
We all headed back to Anthony & CeCille's for a much needed nap. Even Yogi took a nap.
Then on our way out of town we stopped at the farm to give Trevor his birthday present and check out the cows. Gk was so funny. Brandon took him into the pregnant cow place and GK was "casting the demons out". The were totally shy of a little 2 year old boy! We walked over and saw som
e more cows and some horses too.
But I think GK's favorite part of the farm was when Garrick brought out the tractor. I wasn't sure how he would do. He loves to look at them but he gets kinda scared. Brandon went with him and said he loved it. GK cried and ran after it when Garrick was putting it away.
Thanks Hall family for putting up with us again! We just love your family!
