Company Carnival

We went to the Gen Mills company picnic/carnival the weekend. It was pretty fun. The weather was pretty good too. It wasn't too hot and there was a nice breeze which brought a little rain, but nothing we couldn't handle. Ben was playing at the playground when the rain hit and all the big kids started yelling, "get in the tunnels." Ben started running around outside the playground and yelling, "det ee da tunnel dies" translation "get it the tunnel guys!" It was so funny because he was getting rained on while he was trying to save the other kids.
The boys all started out riding the small ferris wheel. Noah and Jakob had fun even though they hit their heads and stuff. Ben, on the other hand, had a good time until about two rounds from the end and he started crying, so the guy let him out. There were tons of fun activities. Jakob was so responsible and kept an eye on Noah the whole time and made sure he was getting through the tunnels and slides and everything.
Noah had fun too because he could run around and do everything that the bigger kids were doing.
All the boys ate a huge dinner of pancakes, bacon and biscuits at Bob Evans after the picnic and of course, slept so soundly.
Oh, and Steve won a door prize - a croquet set.
Oh and I almost forgot! Steve and his team won the 3 on 3 Basketball tournament as well.
