Salmon Days

What a difference 8 hours sleep can make! Everyone awoke feeling much better today. Henry's nose is still a faucet and he is coughing so we have decided to skip our soccer class this morning. Anyhow as he plays nicely with his kitchen I thought I would share some stuff from our trip to Salmon Days on Sunday.

We had a great time. The highlight for Henry was that we got to ride a yellow school bus to the festival which might be the highlight of his life so far. He must have said yellow bus a thousand times with a smile on his face! Salmon Days had tons of fun stuff to do. Henry almost sat in a fire engine but at the last minute he got overwhelmed and cried. It was like he was confronting something he had been dreaming of and it was just too much! We quickly fixed that with his first bite of cotton candy which he loved. We also got to watch a water dog jumping competition and play with play dough. One of the funnest things was Henry got to "fish" at a booth and win candy, which he thought was amazing. Before we left we also got to watch the salmon make their final trip upstream which is always so interesting and Henry loved seeing all of the fish. Overall it was a great day and we can't wait for next year!




Here is a video of the first bite of cotton candy. You can see the tears on his cheek from the fire engine fiasco a few moments earlier.
