Saturday
It was a VERY busy day. We started the morning with breakfast at Wende Lady's house so we'd have energy to spend the day at the waterpark. The waterpark was a big hit. I had been a bit nervous because at the one in Washington, he seemed very fearful of big rides. That was not evident here. He went on everything he was tall enough for. He didn't want to leave even though we got to go to the "radio" afterwards (he was talking about the rodeo). As we were heading to the car he said, "I don't want to leave, you told me that we were staying here all day and they aren't closing yet." He really enjoyed his first rodeo except that we got there an hour early to get decent seats in general admission so there weren't any cowboys yet which we had told him he'd see. We also told him there would be a rodeo clown but he didn't show up until right before bull-riding at the end, so he asked over and over when he was coming. He enjoyed being the photographer and even took a picture of himself! Cotton candy and nachos kept him well behaved.

Fun at the rodeo
Nothing like good old cotton candy |

| This was how I found him when I got out of bed Saturday morning. I have since seen crazier positions, but I still like this picture |
Sunday
Snoh was very upset about having to go to church, but as soon as he got there he practically ran into his classroom and was then very excited about telling me what he learned: God made the fish and the birds on the 5th day. He's excited to go back next Sunday to learn about the 6th day! Lunch at Wende Lady's was entertaining for the rest of us as Snoh requested ketchup to be put on his corn on the cob. We then went to the pool and was finally able to use his new snorkel set. Hannah and Matt were even able to throw him into the water, which he loved. Then he stayed at home with brother so that all the girls could go with Matt and Hannah for their engagement pictures.

Monday
Wende Lady picked us up at 9:45am to meet Hannah, Emily and Katey (Hannah's 3rd bridesmaid) for wedding dress shopping. We went to one store to find it closed. We went to another store to find a rude associate. We went to another store and found THE dress. She looked stunning and is going to make a very gorgeous bride, which we knew before buying the dress. When I told Snoh what we were doing (getting Hannah a princess dress) he said, "Wait, I have a super duper idea. We need to get a dress for Matt too. Not just Hannah." I told him that the boys wear tuxedos and he said, "He doesn't need a princess dress, just a boy dress!" So adorable :) He did great through all of that and then we even made it to the mall for bridesmaid dress shopping. At the 2nd store, we lucked out! 3 dresses in the right sizes and only $35 each. Perfect!!! Wedding is not until August 5, 2011, but now the planning is in full swing. He also got the bonus again today on Wende Lady's money game. He also spent a lot of time playing boxing on the Wii and winning everytime.

| NOT the bridesmaid dress, but we liked these too, but they were more than $100 more than the dresses we ended up with |
