Pictures, Horses, Fire and the Park

As the title indicates, we had a weekend full of lots of different things a few weeks back.

Our Saturday morning started off with having some holiday pictures taken. The kids both did so good so I am hoping for some super cute pics!

We rewarded (bribed) both kids with a new small toy so we made a stop for that after pictures. After lunch, a nap for Paige, and some rocking out to Rock Band,

we headed to our local fire department's open house.

Paige absolutely refused to go in the truck!

Then we headed to church followed by a night at the races at Balmoral Park!

Just before we left, we all picked a random number horse and placed a bet. Here they are cheering on their horses!

Luke was the big winner with his horse coming in 2nd place. He won $1.20 and you would have thought he won $1.2 million! He was much more excited about the 2 shiny dimes than the dollar bill :)

The next morning was super low key, but it was a beautiful day so we decided to head out to another fire station open house. This one was in Homewood (where I work). They were having a live burn demonstration that we thought would be neat to see.

It doesn't take long for the fire to spread - scary!

Once again, Paige refused to get in the truck!

After our visit at the fire station, we headed to a park for a picnic and to enjoy the beautiful weather!
