Lighting of the Doves event

This weekend was the Lighting of the Doves celebration so we loaded up Jaden and his gear and met up with John's brother Justin and his family so the kids could have some fun!  

Rare picture!  
Us letting Jaden have sweets and him actually eating it.

This was the Sweet & Sassy booth (for girls).  
Jaden walked right up to the girls with a little shy smile and they ate it up!   
This is them putting a sparkly star on his hand.

Jaden & cousin Conley checking out their stickers.

The event had this big Snowhill that you could slide down on an inner tube but little kids had to be able to ride by themselves to be admitted.  A few kids older than Jaden backed out at the last minute and had to be retrieved by parents who didn't look to happy about having to climb up the stairs to get them.  But Jaden climbed to the top by himself and was ready to go without the tube!  Guess he thought it was just one big slide.  I caught him in time and they got the tube under him but he didn't quite understand that you had to hold onto the handles.  He finally got it.  I'm sure it was quite a sight for the people at the bottom!  A little yellow tube with feet sticking out of the top coming down the hill.  =D  Jaden high 5'd us afterwards.  What a little dare-devil!

I'm explaining the importance of holding on with both hands.

Jaden has landed!

What just happened?!

I probably won't blog again until after the holiday so everyone,
HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
