We got up this morning, and quick got ready to head down to breakfast. Then we started packing up and getting ready to leave. The kids colored at the table while we were packing up. Bruce and I stayed in town and walked through the shops. They had some really good sales, so we got a few shirts for all of us and some summer hats for the kids. The kids loved going to the candy shop. The lady gave them each a little bucket to carry around the store. They both picked out some candy to put into their buckets, and then they took it up to the counter to pay for it. We stopped at the fudge shop to get some fudge and then went to get some lunch. We ate at a little restaurant in town that a lady in one of the shops recommended. The food was very good. Then we headed home.

We got up and got ready to go to my cousins, Sara's wedding. It was about a three hour drive there. We were almost there, and Hailey started getting car sick. She threw up all over her dress. She did this last time we drove here. We think it's all the hills after such a long drive that does it. She never gets sick when we go visit Bruce's parents which is about the same distance, so it's got to be all the hills. We stopped at a gas station to rinse out her dress and change her clothes. We didn't have another dress with us, so we stopped at a store in the next town and found one. All the Christmas dresses were on clearance so we got it pretty cheap too. We got to the hotel we were staying in and got unpacked and changed Hailey into her new dress. We stayed at the hotel with my parents so we wouldn't have to drive that night. It was a very nice wedding and we all had a nice time at the reception. We had a nice dinner, and Max loved his salad as he does anything green. After we were done eating, Hailey got down to play by the table. I was looking away and when I looked back, she was climbing up the rock wall behind us. She had gottong a couple feet up. I pulled her down and told her that wasn't the kind of rock wall that you climb. I can't believe she did that. She doesn't even climb the ones at the park. She did just watch a show the other day though where the little boy was climbing a rock wall, so she must have tried it because of that. It was so funny and everybody that saw her was laughing too. Here she is in her pretty dress climbing walls. One of the ladies that was sitting at a table next to ours asked if she is a climber. Normally Max is our little climber, not Hailey. Molly, the little flower girl was so cute. She is my cousin, Matt's, little girl who is just a few months younger than Max. We got Max and Molly to hold hands and they just stood there looking at each other for the longest time. Then they started playing together. When Molly saw Max running back and forth across the dance floor, she started running back and forth with him. They were both laughing so hard. The kids all had so much fun dancing. Hailey and Jacob danced together during one of the slow songs. It was so sweet. Max loved dancing too. Both Hailey and Max were all over the dance floor and danced the whole night. They would go right in the middle of everybody and dance with them. Hailey loved all the pretty dresses, especially Sara's wedding dress. She would go right up to them and dance with them. Max had fun dancing with the girls too. Kenzie took turns dancing with all her little cousins. She was very excited to catch the bouquet. We stayed till about 10:30 and then went back to the hotel to get the kids to bed. They didn't even want to stop dancing. Even Max didn't want to stop. He was getting tired though and would go and get his blankie and then take it out to the dance floor and dance with it. When we got back to the hotel, Max fell asleep right away, and Hailey was very excited to use her new sleeping bag that she got for Christmas.
