Full of Grace

This weekend we babysat our niece, Grace. And boy was it a busy weekend! Thursday was spent playing with toys- Reagan and Grace played so well together! Friday, we went to the park, then that evening headed to Salt Lake for Annie's wedding reception (gorgeous bride), then zipped on over to the state fair! It was a blast!

Getting excited to go in:
 Grace went down the giant slides with me 3 or 4 times. I couldn't believe how brave she is for a 2.5 year old!
 We went on lots of other rides, and even took Reagan on some.

Grace went fishing and got two prizes! One of which she let Reagan hold.

Saturday morning, we went up to Brigham City to see the new temple open house with some friends. Unfortunately, they weren't doing official tours that day, because of Brigham City Peach Days. Fortunately, as we were walking around the back, we met up with a group of other people like us, and they let us have an unofficial tour (which was the same, but without the video at the beginning talking about temples). We even got cookies!
 
Afterwards, we watched the parade which happened to be going past right in front of the temple, so it all worked out great.
 
After heading home so the girls could get a long nap, it was time for...

The Fairy Festival!
 The Fairy Festival is an event/fundraiser put on by Grace's aunt's sister, in memory of her baby that died a few years ago, and all the profits are donated to charity. It was beautiful, and I couldn't believe how many people were there! Reagan was so excited, she wouldn't hold still for a picture.

At the festival, we dropped Grace of with one of her other aunts to stay with until her mom and dad came home today. We had such a great time with her, but two kids is a lot of work!
