Polynesian Festival

Yesterday morning Makenna called us and said there was a Polynesian Festival going on at Tempe Town Lakes, so we met up with her and Jason and thier boys and mom and dad, who had Elijah and hung out. Here's some of the afternoon: Walking to the Festival. Some of the boats in the Lake.
This was one of the clothing booths signs. It is AWESOME!!! See how the "future neck roller" size has a little dipple in the neck. Funny! At the bottom is says "How do you roll?" ha ha...

They did some hula dancing. They had some older groups and then some little kids come on. This was the last of the performances of the day. We didn't make it for the earlier performances.


Our little sweetheart. You can tell her eyes are a little poofy...She missed her afternoon nap, so needless to say it was a very tiring afternoon for her. But, she was a champ while we were there.


My dad and Chad are getting interested in Ukulele's. They both want one, so they were checking out the selection there, and coveting :D My dad's friend Ed came and visited and played for us and it was actually really cool. He played that "over the rainbow" song that's played with a Ukulele from 50 First Dates, love that song!



And this is how the afternoon ended. They look so sweet and peaceful when they sleep. Love her :D They also had a bunch of food there and some MASSIVE snow cones. I wish I had gotten a picture of inside the snow cone tent...It was a sitting line up of ice shaving machines and people sitting behind them constantly shaving snow cones....brought back memories of summers at the Rupert Fair, although this looked like a snow cone sweat house.

How fun!! I wish we could be walking around in t-shirts and shorts, that would be lovely. :) Instead of all this snow.
Emrie is such a doll! I love her! And I miss you-when are you going to come visit me?!??!?!?!
