Celebrate Youth Outing

I promise, all of my Vegas posts are coming. I just have to sort through the 396 pictures I took. Yes, I seriously did take that many pictures. Joe calls me a Japanese Tourist when I have my camera. I take a picture of EVERYTHING! I just tell him that when he wants to remember something 10 years down the road, he will be grateful I took all of those pictures! But for now, I am just going to update about a little celebration that Rexburg threw. They do it every year right before school starts. It has loads of free activities. It was SO crowded, and of course, Jacob just wanted to do the carousel and the train ride. The train ride was about an hour long wait. Blah. And it was so hot! Here are the pictures that we got from this. Joe pulled some strings (he's awesome like that!) and instead of just a regular ride, he and Jacob got to ride in the front by the driver and pull the horn and ring the bells. I think Jacob thought he had died and gone to heaven!!
This is cotton candy on the fence. I just thought this was funny.
