TDS FEST

Yesterday we went to Chris's big work party called TDS Fest. It is the big picnic for the year. They have it every July. The kids loved it last time we went in 2006 so we made sure that we were home and ready for another year of TDS Fest. The bounce houses and blow up things were the best and most attractive things for the kids. They enjoyed racing one another and just seeing how fast they could go for all the obstacles.
It was very hot but could have been much worse according to the weather man early in the day. It was not as muggy as we thought and there was a little breeze even once in a while.
The heat didn't seem to stop the kids. They were going and going. They went so much yesterday that they didn't even wake up for the storm last night. That meant a better nights sleep for mom. (smile)

As you will see in the pictures below, I have some gladiators on my hands. All three of them love to watch American Gladiators. So it was only natural yesterday when doing a lot of these events that they would be competing and also racing again pretend gladiators to see how fast they could go.

They had games for the kids and the bounce places and snow cones and food and free drinks.
