Teddy Bear Picnic

Today was MSU's annual Teddy Bear Picnic. We were excited to go. Dallin, however, was a little unsure about the whole thing when we got there.


They had all sorts of fun things for the kids. He got to pick out a new bike helmet, got lots of crafts and sticker, balloon hats, face painting, and much more. He even got a give his teddy an "x-ray" and got to take home a copy, plus he gave him and MRI and an eye test. Good news, Baby Teddy past every test. He is in excellent health. They even served lunch. The first hour we were there it was nice, a bit cool but nice. Then came the rain. We squeezed in the corner of a tent to eat lunch. Dallin was more interested in dancing to the music than eating.

We did walk around for about another 30 minutes in the rain. Dallin didn't want to leave. We were the only crazies in the garden. He loves the Children 4-H Garden, plus it is right next to the train tracks so you can see all the passing trains through the fence. It's really loud, but pretty cool to be so close. Dallin wanted to go through the Alyson Wonderland maze (as he calls it) over and over again. Finally we made him go home. He didn't cry or complain, but he sure did walk as slow as he possibly could.
After getting home everyone need to change because we were all soaked. Dad and Dallin enjoyed hot chocolate, The Incredibles, and a bowl of marshmallows for Dallin. Over all, it was a fun time. I can't wait till next year.
