It's Payson Onion Days once again. Our family was super involved all weekend long. Friday night we enjoyed the carnival and the $1 rides, Saturday we all participated in the Children's Talent Show, Monday I ran the 5K with pals Jana and Carrie. Later that morning we attended the parade and got soaked when the heavens opened and rain, hail and wind blasted us, then we ended our day by attending Payson Community Theater's "Beauty and the Beast".
We spend so much time together as a family, it was great.
Here are some pictures from the talent show... please keep in mind, there were TONS of people in attendance here....
Ok, ok, let me explain! This year the talent show did "America's Got Talent" and had 3 judges. The gal in charge of this thing, Leah, just so happens to be my neighbor (lucky me) and asked if I could be one of the dumb talents that gets X'd off!! Well, I dragged Chloe into it and we came up with this lovely act. She was "Sheresa" and I was "Shanene" and we were sistas! Chloe lip synced to a lovely Tiny Tim song! (it really was hilarious guys, seriously!) We got X'd within 25 seconds of the song... and the judges got Booed!
We were totally into it, man! We were jammin'!This is the song we were groovin' to:
Tiny Tim; Living In the Sunlight Loving In the Moonlight
try to find it and listen to it sometime, it's so worth it! :)
Why Sponge Bob, you ask? Well, this Tiny Tim song happened to be on a Sponge Bob episode, so we went to Wal Mart the night before and Chloe found these lovely PJ's. Mine is a kid's size 14/16, it's a NIGHTGOWN! I obviously just wore it as a shirt. Lovely, I know. I gave it to Nat and now she wears it as a big nightie!Yes, we were pretty awesome.
Oh this!? Well, I just wanted to show you that only in Utah could a ward advertise its Enrichment night at the town carnival downtown in the park! I'm not knocking it, I just thought it was funny.Maybe 7th ward was just having a party there, I dunno. Pretty cool.
This one is for you Lori Gresko-Thompson! Look who we hung out with at the talent show!
Lindsay and Gene did a cute act. Lindsay so loves to perform, she is not shy at all.She is so different from the other girls.... she loves getting up in front of crowds.
Ok, Chloe is like that, too! 2 are shy, 2 love the crowd! :)
Lindsay strums the guitar as Gene plays the chords, and together they sing,"Puff the Magic Dragon"
It's adorable.
Later on Haley played the piano, of course. This kid is amazing guys! She is very shy and is just fine playing the piano, (for Sacrament, to accompany signers) but usually she has her back to the crowd!
Not this time, everyone was looking at her and she did a great job.
She played Five for Fighting's "100 Years".
You can see some of the crowd listening to her play!
I swear, one of these days you will find my daughter playing in some lounge or for Nordstrom's!
(joking!)She plays in a very "loungy" way... does that make sense?
Here she is answering the judges questions! She did so good.
Gene took some pictures of our other adventures with his blackberry and I'll post those another time!

Sounds like you had fun at all the events. I especially loved the Enrichment sign. I didn't see that there the other night. So funny. It was great running with you...you rock!
How fun! Thank you for posting that. It was so cool to see that picture of Travis on your blog. It's really weird to see him somewhere like that without us. Hard to explain but it's that small world kind of thing. I am so glad he was able to visit with you guys.
ummmmmmm hellllooo??? Why didn't I know you were doing this, I would have come to watch.
Looks like fun anyway, sorry I missed it.
