Yesterday, we went to the roaring youth jam which was along the Snake River Green belt.
They had tons of free arts and crafts stuff to do. Ethan and Kyra finger painted, made color sand pictures. Ethan made a batman mask and splatted paint all over a giant xylophone. We all had fun doing the hula hoops.Kyra thought she was doing awesome as she twirled around with the hula hoop held tightly to her side. They had a bunch of junk that you could beat on and try to be like stomp, the kids enjoyed beating on all the junk and making a royal racket. After arts and crafts we got some Mexican corn like in NachoLibre and it was really good.
There were firemen out letting the kids spray at a target with smaller hoses which still had a good enough kick that the firemen still had to hold onto the hoses. Ethan liked it , butKyra was a natural (trouble maker) firefighter. The hoses sprayed toward the greenbelt were everybody was walking and were safe if the kids sprayed thetraget. Kyra got board with holding the hose so she started pushing the hose back and forth sometimes getting the water close to the people on the path. The fireman was nice enough to say she had a nice spraying pattern, but he doesn't knowKyra like we do.
There were some really cool cars at the car show like the the dolorian, like the one in Back to the Future, and an Erkel car a little one door three wheeled BMW. There was a jet boat race going on which was cool to watch the boats race down the river. The national guard wad there with a blow up obstacle course and a climbing wall. Ethan thought the climbing wall was cool in line, but made it about half way up.
After we got done at the greenbelt the we went to a little battle of the high school bands where Ethan got his hair punked out green. He really got into it by slam dancing and crowed surfing, but he stopped after getting his nose scrapped up and a black eye. After that we had some yummy mandarinChinese food and then we went and got some Reed's Dairy Ice Cream which is super good. And made right here in Idaho Falls. It was a super fun day.
