Orem Summerfest

Yesterday and today was the Orem Summerfest.  We did not go yesterday because we were at Lagoon all day.  I did not blog about it because we got home late and I was tired.  The kids had a fun day, they love going to Lagoon.
They had fun at the Summerfest today.  Grant's brother, Mike, had a booth this year, he sold golf ball markers.  We walked over with Grant because he was going to sit with Mike and help him.  I ended up staying with the kids there for a couple of hours.  As you can see from the picture, the kids had a great time and got lots of stuff.  First, they each bought golf ball markers.  You can buy the golf ball markers to wear on a  hat clip or on a necklace.  They each got a necklace.  Next, we went over and had ID cards made for each of them.  The police were there making them.  They took their pictures.  They have info on them like their weight, height, hair color, eye color, etc.  They even each have their fingerprint on the back.  After this, they each made the sun visors you see in the picture.  Then they had their faces painted. Finally, we stood in line and they each got a balloon animal.  Besides for their golf ball markers, everything else was free.  They had a great time.  Yesterday, in line at Lagoon, Ethan out of the blue said, "You learn two lessons at Lagoon. One, patience. Two, fun!"  Well, I guess they learned those lessons today as well.
  The Orem Summerfest always has great fireworks.  We finished the night off with a BANG!
