Art, 24th Parade, and pigtails

So we haven't update much in the last few days, so we will have to pile it all into one entry. A fun week for us and some events that were unusual.

Art Fair: "The Ann Arbor Street Art Fair is the Original of the now four award winning art fairs which together attract over 500,000 attendees from across the nation". We have never been before, even though they hold it each year. It was huge, quite a bit larger then we expected. It was fun to walk by the booths and see the variety of art/sculptures/etc... Of course it was all very expensive and we didn't buy anything. Fun to walk around though, interesting to see all of the different booths and the people that run them from all over the country.



Addison's first hair do- pig tails! She has always had enough hair to pull it up, but we never have done it before (as compared to Jayda who didn't have enough hair until she was about 6-7 mos old). More important then the hair though, her Utah T-Shirt finally fits her!



Many of our neighbors are LDS and know about the 24th of July as a holiday in Utah. They decided to celebrate it here in Michigan this year. They put together a parade for the kids to ride their bikes, or scooters, or wagons in, then they had a variety of Pioneer crafts and activities for the kids to participate in. We decorated Jayda's bike knowing she would love to ride in the parade. She also loved the activities more then we expected and it made for a fun day for all of us. In the picture you can see the other two older girls that Jayda just loves to follow around and play with. They are very nice and take good care of her too.



Other events of the week:
-Anna tried sushi for the first time and enjoyed it.
-Thurs afternoon the tornado sirens went off and the sky went totally black in a matter of minutes. I was at school with a patient and they told us all to hurry to the basement, Anna was at home with the girls (Addison was sleeping). She was also ready to head to the basement when the darkness went away and the weather channel stated that the tornado danger was over.
-Anna's mararthon training is still going well. She ran 12 miles on Sat (longest she has ever run). She was a little sore and tired, but she had fun and is ready to run more this week. She has several friends who are also training, so they get up early almost everyday and run together.

That's all for now, thanks for reading.
