Labor Day, and Onion Days


The city of Payson celebrates onions.

Don't ask me why.

Whatever the reason, "Onion Days" is a great excuse for carnival rides, local fresh produce, dozens of boutiques and food booths, performances, and ultimate pig wrestling. Yes, I said pig wrestling.

What better way to spend Labor Day?


And then we took the scenic route home:

rise and shout.

This is our favorite football team.


This is how excited Micah gets when said football team wins.


Way to start off the season, Cougs!

Fun weekend, long post, lots of pictures...

Micah's beautiful sister, Cami, is getting married.

Since her fiance is from here, they were in town for a few days to have an open house before their wedding in Denver next weekend. Micah's parents came too, and we got to spend a lot of time together.

First off, lunch at Texas Roadhouse.

Maddi's favorite part was playing in Pop's ice water. Although a takeout box kept her pretty entertained, too.

My favorite part was getting to throw peanut shells on the ground.
I guess every neat freak secretly wants to be a little messy once in a while.



We spent Saturday evening at Cami's open house, where she asked us to be the unofficial photographers. I'm still discovering the ins and outs of this camera, but I got a few good shots. Mostly, I followed the little kids around because they were just so funny!

At one point in the evening, there were about ten of us who had all gone to high school together in Colorado. Who knows when we'll all be together again, so we figured we ought to get a picture:

Congratulations Cami and Wes!
