Stihl Lumberjack Contest

Wow! What a day. Mike and I both took a friday off of work and we took the kids to the Stihl Lumberjack competition at Thanksgiving point. We had a great day! The kids were all able to make plaster bird paw prints. They painted their faces, and ate a lot of junk food. We spent from 1:00p.m. till 7:30 p.m.. Each of us had our favorite parts of the competition. Mike, loved the hot saws. Morgan loved Rick, an older gentleman who was participating in the events. She was devastated when we could not find him afterwards for an autograph. Micah liked the boom run. Thaddeus loved his new chain saw that he got, and he also liked the hot saws. I liked the photographic moments and I liked watching the fall after the log climb. It was a great day together. I know Mike would kill me if he knew I posted this picture of him but thank goodness he doesn't read my blog. I loved this picture. Most of you only see the serious side of him and this is the side of him that comes out when we are just hanging out having a great day. This was a perfect day we'll not forget.
