Wild Hog Canoe Race!

Saturday started very early for some........Justin left the house at 6:30am! It was a very busy day for all the volunteers, but everything got done and the day turned out to be a great success! The kids and I got to the finish line around 10:30 and waited for the fun to begin, for the boats to start paddling in.....             


Felicity and Christian enjoyed a pony ride, while Savannah just watched cause she was too scared to get on!

I was supposed to be getting all these pictures of the racers, but with trying to watch my kids and keep a very fussy Jonathan happy, this is the only picture I got of the boaters coming in. Their boat was sinking as it was crossing the finish line, someone said it had a hole in it!..... 
 
Andrew keeping the score with Samuel and Josh hanging out (Justin was helping do the score too, just wasn't there at the time)! They ended up raising a lot of money for LARC and lots of people won prizes, Becky and Joe won a couple things and Josh won a brand new chainsaw, go Josh! And of course we won absolutely nothing, but we weren't really trying to either.

 I got this picture of Samuel for Becky, she was off doing something and the next thing we know is that hes got someones drink and is drinking it, very gross i know!......

Jonathan spending time with Grandma Mary.....

My kids hardly ever get sweets, but today I was passing out cookies to them and Becky's kids (I'm such a sweet Aunt) and I let them have "pig" cupcakes that Aunt Erica and Leah made, which they loved!......

  1. I forgot the tell Joe about Samuel & the Coke (so gross)!!! guess I'll just show him the picture. The boys did not seem to be affected by the cookies (thankfully)& Caleb did not even want his "pig"!! So glad we were about to make it to the race this year & as a family too!! The weather was great & the bugs stayed away for most of the day thankfully!!! I love reading all your posts keep up the good work!
