The Clark County Fair - Tuff Trucks



Last Saturday, our family along with Sarah, Ryan and Luke went to the fair. They (the boys) wanted to go watch the Tuff Trucks. So after we parked and walked about a mile to get into the gates, we made our way through the smelly animal barns to find the Truck arena.

Anson and Ryan loving the cows. I think Anson is just thankful to them for the warmth their skin provides. He loves his leather jacket! Two thumbs up!

This dude was a walking vendor, selling sodas. Anson thought he looked like David Archuleta from last seasons "American Idol." Uh...how? I don't see it.


We bought a BIG bag of caramel corn and Ashton's munching on it while watching the remote control trucks and cars before the big show begins.

Anson thought he needed his own big bag of caramel corn.

The remote control cars and trucks.

It was fun to watch but about 10 minutes into it, Ashton was crying and covering his ears, so Anson took him out to walk around the fair and Ammon decided to go with them. Then about an hour into it Anson Jr. decided that he saw enough and joined the rest of the fam.






After it was over, Luke, Ryan, Sarah and I walked around and looked at the sharks, tigers, turtles, porcupines, eagles and other animals. I saw that a hypnotist would be on stage at 10pm, and we all met up and watched. It was really funny. I didn't take pictures of anything else because my batteries died. Normally they're all charged up and ready to go, but somebody (my kids) stole my rechargables from my camera. We had a great time, but would have loved to have taken more pics!

A Ward's Welcome!

Last night we went to pick up dinner and came home and watched the movie "Beverly Hills Chihuahua". Afterward, we all walked up stairs and I noticed there was a heart on our window near the front door. I opened the door and there were paper hearts everywhere! The youth from the ward we had just moved into, "Heart Attacked" us. Anson Jr. was spending the night at a friends house, so he missed all the fun!

My **NEW** Twilight t-shirt designs!

As you guys may or may not know, I design shirts for the "Dazzled By Twilight" store in Forks and Port Angeles. Last night I came up with a couple of designs, e-mailed them to the store owner and he e-mailed back that he loved the designs and wants them made immediately. So today we ran the designs on yoga pants and sweat pants and will do the designs on the shirts tomorrow. Here is a graphic of my new design.

Fun at the park!

It's been awhile since I have posted and for good reason! WE MOVED! And we've been swamped with t-shirt orders! Anyway, I will talk more about that later. The kids have been wanting to go to this park right by our house ever since we moved and I finally took them today. It's a great park, lots of trails for the kids to ride their bikes and lots of trees and grass and play areas.
