Well it's that time of year again....Onion Days!!! Now if you're not from Payson Utah than you probably aren't aware of the coolest small town celebration in the world, but every Labor day weekend everyone from Payson returns for the carnival, parade, crash up derby, greased pig wrestling, and so much more. In fact our first date was Brian taking Jenn to Onion Days, and since we've been in Alaska the last 3 years during Labor Day we haven't been able to attend. Till this year that is. Heather and her family also came down from Boise for all the fun too. We all went to Payson Lakes on Saturday to play in the lake.


We took a kayak up so we could paddle around the lake, and as soon as we pulled it off the jeep all the nieces and nephews wanted rides too. So we put 5-7 people in our 2 person kayak and paddled all afternoon. That night we went to the carnival, funny how all the kids who either dropped out of high school, or got pregnant and quit high school can always been counted on to be at the carnival. We also found out that the ferris wheel ride collapses down to a trailer, this we found out as we were getting off and saw the tires under the ride.....real safe!


On Monday there was the awesome parade. Everything was fine until 5 minutes into the parade and it started pouring rain. we stuck it out for a while, but eventually decided to pack it up and go. Probably a good idea since as you can see Brian was the only one without an umbrella and couldn't see anyways. All in all it was another great event in Brian's hometown.
