Labor Day Weekend

For Labor Day Weekend, we had a ton of fun things planned.  It didn't really turn out the way we expected...
Saturday, we headed to Brigham and had dinner at Maddox.  After that, we headed across the street to the fruit stand to pick up some peaches and some tomatoes-we are going to make salsa!  Anyway, after that we headed to Ogden, to the Raptors game.  Upon arriving at the game, we were informed the game had been cancelled due to rain and wind.  (As we are standing there, the weather is fine.)  I know it had been windy and rainy, but it had pretty much stopped at this point.  Great...we drove all this way, now what?

We head over to the Salomon Center  and watched a guy who was "flying" at I Fly.  Next we played mini golf and some video games at Fat Cats.  After that, we stopped at a cupcake shop and the kids got cupcakes.  An ok night, I guess but missing the baseball game was a bummer.  We dropped Destrie off in Clarkston to sleep out in the tent with Eric and Kate and we head home...excited for tomorrow's adventure.








We head out again, and this time we are headed to Blackfoot, Idaho for the fair and horse races.  We get there, go to buy our tickets for the races, and they tell us that races have been cancelled due to rain yesterday that messed up the track....Damn the bad luck!!!

 Destrie and Madee did get to ride the mechanical bull though, so it wasn't a total loss.

 After that, we walked around and checked out all the sites...

Oh, and then I had a crown break off while I was eating some fudge....good times.

And that was our disappointing Labor Day Weekend.
Oh wait...we did go to a cookout in Clarkston on Monday that actually turned out good.
