A day with Ruben

As i said in the last post..Jesus dropped Ruben off today and luckily we had a ton of stuff going on all day so we could keep him busy. We went to the parade after he played with the kitten for a little bit. He got a huge sugar high so we took him to the park. Every year the city counsel puts together a sort of carnival for the kids that were in the parade. When i was in the parades it was a park full of free activities to win prizes, just small stuff like fishing for tadpoles and cute stuff like that. We took him expecting that...but since Lehi is soooo big now they had all sorts of stuff that was close to free. 25 cents for most things. 50 cents for others. a couple dollars for the REALLY cool stuff! Ruben was so excited he could spend his dollar on somethin fun! Here are the pics of Rubens day....


Getting put in a harness to go rock climbing!

He made it up a lot further than any of the other kids his size! This was the second hardest side of the wall.

He and David jumped down the giant slide, the cameras timing is wierd so i managed to get Davids feet as he jumped...i completely missed Rubens jump!

Ruben REALLY wanted to be dunked it was a dollar to be dunked and a dollar for 3 throws. Ruben got dunked by David 2 times!

I think this was his second dunk

And hes in the water!

David was pretty stoked he got 2 out of 3 throws from a pretty far distance.

This swing was only 25 cents and he was super excited for it........

Until they set a little blonde girl next to him!

He still had fun anyway!

David had to beg him to do the slip n slide and after he went once he went 2 more times it was so fun! also 25 cents.

I bet he felt pretty good after that, it was HOT!

They had free arts and crafts. He colored his own paddle ball thingy...

They had a free petting zoo with lots of baby goats and ducks and chickens
and pigs...

And pony rides! This is where Ruben spent his dollar.

It looks like a dollar well spent.

He left saying it was sorta fun, then when Jesus picked him up he couldnt stop talking about all the stuff he did today! It was fun, just a tad bit hot. It woulda been a lot funner with all the nieces and nephews but were kinda far away from everyone! It was a great day!
