today our summer program ended on a good note...we had "water fun day", which basically is me with a garden hose and lots of kids with bottles or water guns and we all get soaked...it was very fun...also we wrapped andrew's truck with saran wrap and toilet paper...we made him a huge card which was a fire truck and it was about 6 feet long and each of us had drawn a dalmatian with a red fire hat and then put our names on them, and we sang "for he's a jolly good fellow" and we gave him a yearbook full of summer memories...it was a great day that i thought was going to be so bad...i was supposed to be off at 10 am but i stayed until about 4 pm...
so school starts this coming week, and i am excited to be getting back to teaching!!!...i might go to the fair tomorrow, then at 5 pm our church is having about 10 people get baptized in the columbia river (like my parents did a couple of years ago and i have considered doing)...the fair i mentioned is the "benton franklin fair and rodeo"- it is a 5 day event which draws a total of about 100,000 people...there are lots of animals, food, rodeo, food, exhibits, food, rides, and food...i went on wednesday for work and had a pretty good time, saw some animals, had a bbq pork sandwich, and rode on some rides...the tilt-a-whirl was not a very good one, i went on it twice, then the carousel, and the tornado, i wanted to go on the sizzler, the yo yo, and the ferris wheel, but wasn't able to...the flying bobs looked fun, i went on it a few years ago...i can't believe that i once went on the zipper...that was a long time ago and never again!...
i will update more later, except to mention that les and renee's baby miranda has to wait until she is six months old to have her open heart surgery...more later...
