Tule Springs

My Dad had the grand idea of going to Tule Springs today. They were putting on a free Easter Celebration. They had carnival rides, bounce houses, cotton candy, etc.- all for free. So, off we went. The weather was beautiful... probably the equivalent of a perfect day in California, which in my world means FREEZING. I am cold in any weather below 70 degrees. It was nice though... I can't complain.

Slides, a maze, a ferris wheel, flying rides, etc.:


A dinosaur bounce house:


Two of the proudest Grandparents in the world:


Aubrey was so excited to feed the ducks:

Back at Nana and Pop-Pop's house... we put her to work:



Pooped after a long and fun day!


And even though one would think that Aubrey would be exhausted after everything that we did today, once she got home and got to spend some time with Daddy, she would.not.stop.talking. Seriously. So after about 10 minutes of Aubrey chatting away to Nick, he told me to go get the camera. So, below is a video of Aubrey talking about everything that we did at Tule Springs. Now, this video is six and a half minutes long!!!! And she just kept talking non-stop for about another hour after I finished recording...

I doubt any of you will be able to watch the entire video... well, i'm sure Nick's mom will because she will get a kick out of how Aubrey's mind is going a mile a minute. Nick and I couldn't believe everything coming out of her little mouth.

Some notes on the video:

-"Hee-hawks" is Aubrey's word for "peacocks"

-When the peacocks made that noise that they make (whatever you call it), Aubrey thought that they were saying "Help!" (which was really funny because they kinda did sound like they were saying "help").

- There was bird poop all over the grass and it really bothered Aubrey. She can be such a girly girl. So she had to tell Daddy all about the bird poop.

Anyways... enjoy.

Jon hopes that Aubrey isn't afraid of meeting him - please reassure her that he does not scream help and does not poop in the grass. He doesn't mind if she calls him Heehock though.

This was the sweetest video ever, I can't believe how talkative she is - and she is very high energy Lindsay! Good luck with that - she definitely reminds me of you when you were a kid. Yes...I remember :-)
