Festivities at the Park

We went to the park in Nephi on the 4th of July and the kids all got tickets and could go on any ride or do any activity that they chose. The blow up slide was the big hit for all of them. They would go again and again. I took a bunch of pictures because it was so fun to capture the looks on their faces each time they went down.
I love how Bethany looks so terrified. . . she didn't ever act like she was - she was laughing the whole time. Where did this look come from I wonder?
Of course, Ty can't just go down the slide normally. He must do all sorts of acrobatics as he takes his turn.
It took Emma a while to figure out that she needed to give a ticket to the lady every 2 turns. She would just go busting up the steps before the lady could stop her and go again.
Hana would just giggle and scream every time that she went down. It doesn't take much to make her happy.
This little ride is so cool. It is just some little tire swings that go around in a circle ran by a little engine. The kids think it is awesome.

Later on during the day, we went down to Delta to the Demolition Derby. It was AWESOME! Justin and Lara were there and so were David and Carrie. The kids loved it - the girls were especially excited because "Herbie" was racing the figure 8 race. For the most part, the weather held off for us. It rained only once during for about 5-10 min and we just put the blankets that we were sitting on over our heads and kept on watching. The fireworks were great and right at the end when we were leaving it downpoured. We were drenched by the time we got back to the car. But we had so much fun and that's all that counts! Like a dork, I forgot my camera, but Mick took some pics with his phone. I will post as soon as I get them off of it.
