Kids' Fest- Juner.

On our last day at Grandma and Grandpa's house, we decided to head over to Napoleon for a big festival sponsered by the Hospital and Campbell Soup.
When we got there, I spied pony rides! Since it looked like the whole shindig was going to get pretty crowded, we decided to get some free snow cones and wait in line before the lines got too long.

You can imagine how pumped I was to ride a horsie. Thanks, Uncle Kevin, for riding with me since pregnant ladies were not allowed near horses that might kick.
Natalie, my fellow "horsey girl," rode too.
Oliver rode, too, but no one could convince Henry to get on a horse.
We met up with mama's high school friend, Miss Mindy, and her family. Ethan is a year older than Henry and they always have a good time together being rowdy. (But it should noted that all kids were on their best behavior at the festival.)

Hannah is a few months older than June. They also have a little guy named Carter, but mama wouldn't put him down long enough to take his picture.
We played at the playground for a long time, but then the older kids decided they wanted to wait in line for some of the awesome inflatables. I waited with them for this enormous tiger. I climbed up the thirty feet all by myself and slid down the slide. Most of it was covered, so mama couldn't get any pictures, but she was impressed because Henry wouldn't try anything like this until he was almost 4.

Natalie, Oliver (or "Oviler" as Henry still calls him), and Henry wanted to wait to run through the inflatable train maze. Look at how tough they look.
Find anything up there, Oviler?
Finally, Natalie gave a nice smile.
When they got close, they shed their shoes and hats and started to get excited for the train.
Closer to lunch, things really started to get crowded so we headed to another park to eat our lunches. We played for a little while, then hit the road to head back to Marion.
